This stylish apartment enjoys a rural setting on the edge of the Quantock Hills National Landscape, 3 miles from the harbour town of Watchet. Welcoming four guests and three canine pals, the holiday retreat is perfect for those looking to explore the beautiful Somerset coast and countryside. Enjoy long walks with the pups directly from the property, or explore nearby, dog-friendly attractions such as the West Somerset Railway.

The top-floor apartment has been beautifully decorated, with antique-style furniture, warm tones, and rich fabrics, creating a sense of elegance and grandeur. The main living space is an open-plan lounge/kitchen/diner with fabulous Chesterfield sofas, feature wallpaper, and relaxing, rural views. After a day of adventure, share family mealtimes around the wooden dining table or enjoy a movie night in front of the Smart TV. On a summer’s day, throw open the patio doors so the hounds can amble in and out to the enclosed terrace. Tucked in one corner is a sleek kitchen area for whipping up hearty meals for the group. The property has two fabulous bedrooms, both with access to a balcony with spectacular views – the ideal spot for a morning coffee. Choose from a super-king-size bedroom with a stunning four-poster bed and en-suite shower room, or a stylish twin with a feature wall and plush linens. A contemporary family bathroom rounds off the holiday home. Outside, as well as the balcony off the bedrooms, you’ll also have a charming decked area with furniture for al fresco dining on a summer’s evening.

The Quantock Hills are the perfect place to escape the hustle and bustle of everyday life. Enjoy walks with the pups across the heathland and through ancient woodlands, or perhaps join the long-distance Coleridge Way to explore the landscapes that inspired the Romantic poet. The secluded beach at St Audrie’s Bay is 2 miles away. This paw-friendly, pebble beach is an ideal place to hunt for fossils or for the children to go rock pooling. Alternatively, for a traditional day at the seaside, head to Minehead, 11 miles away.
