Picture a blissful countryside escape in a charming thatched cottage, and you may envision a home like this one. Perched on the side of a quiet hill, just a five-minute drive away from Minehead Beach, this grade II listed cottage boasts unique character and charm – guaranteeing a cosy stay that will have you feeling all warm and fuzzy inside from the moment you arrive. While the cottage is dressed in traditional style, it features all the modern requirements for a comfortable stay. We particularly love the wrap-around gardens that offer stunning views of the surrounding countryside and local nature in abundance. Enjoy a spot of afternoon tea from the elevated patio terrace – since the gardens are south-facing, you'll get to soak up the sun all summer long. Inside, the exposed beams, pine doors and oak furniture present a toasty space to gather around the large gas-burning stove and will keep your toes warm even during the coldest winter months. Come evening, take a stroll down to the local pub, just a five-minute walk down the lane. Just a few minutes further, you'll find the local bakery – perfect for picking up a fresh loaf and fulfilling all of your breakfast needs. Set on the edge of the Exmoor National Park – the area is a dream come true for dog walkers and hikers alike. You'll be within easy reach of the starting point of the South West Coast Path – England's longest waymarked footpath which stretches for 630 miles. Meanwhile, the town of Minehead offers a sandy beach and quaint harbour alongside a vast array of independent shops and restaurants to discover.

About Exmoor
Straddling Devon and Somerset, Exmoor might be one of the UK’s smaller national parks, but you’d never know it when you’re there. Exmoor’s 700 square kilometres take in endless moors clad in a purple sea of soft heather, babbling rivers, and sheer cliffs that drop into the clear waters of the Atlantic Ocean.
