This bijou Norwegian wooden lodge is set in 8.5 acres of grounds on the edge of the Quantock Hills, just 2.5 miles from the coastal town of Watchet. St Audries Bay is just 1.5 miles and is great for fossil hunting and wild swimming and is popular with local surfers in the winter. The historic West Somerset steam railway is within 1.25 miles and runs from Minehead to Bishops Lydeard. Head along the coast and visit Watchet (3 miles) with its marina, or the seaside town of Minehead (10.5 miles). Slightly further along the coast is the attractive village of Porlock (15.5 miles) and Porlock Wier. Dunster with its National Trust castle towering above it is a must-see (8.5 miles), as is Hestercombe Gardens (14 miles) near Taunton. There are also endless walking opportunities on the Quantock Hills, the coastal footpath, and Exmoor National Park all easily accessible.

This delightfully warm and cosy lodge is set in a tucked away position within the grounds of the owner's home and enjoys far-reaching views to the Quantock Hills. Step inside this single-storey retreat and into the open-plan lounge/kitchen/diner and settle in for a snug evening in the lounge with a bottle of wine and a film on the Smart TV and relax after a long day. The kitchen is perfect for cooking a lazy breakfast, or a light supper. Completing the accommodation is a double bedroom with a TV/DVD and an en-suite Jack and Jill wet room that can also be accessed from the lounge/kitchen/diner.

Venture outside onto the raised decking with your morning coffee and soak up the views over the gardens and the Quantock Hills. It is also a perfect place to cuddle up under a blanket whilst watching the sun go down. You are very welcome to enjoy the attractive shared landscaped gardens with views towards Exmoor National Park and also enjoy a BBQ which has its own shelter and bench. Next to the lodge is a 5-acre paddock which is perfect for exercising your four-legged friend!

Ideal location. Accommodation suitable for short stays and a smaller dog as very compact but has all necessary facilities and friendly host.

Absolutely lovely, comfortable and well equipped lodge with wonderful walks locally and also a great base for venturing further afield. Make sure you see the Waterfall at St Audries which is a short walk away.

Beautiful Norwegian log cabin. Very comfortable, lovely bed and great shower. It had everything we needed and a place to put everything. Couldn't ask for more. Set in a beautiful garden with a large paddock for the dog to run round in. The owners were lovely and the welcome gift was spot on. The area was perfect for us, lots of beaches, woodlands aRead morend villages to explore. The people in the area are very friendly. Great traditional country pubs within 20 mins drive with fabulous meals on offer. Hide
