Property details

This charming thatched cottage, nestled in the quiet hill of Alcombe, offers a cozy retreat for up to four guests. With two double bedrooms, each featuring king-sized beds and vaulted ceilings, it is perfect for couples, friends, or small families. The property exudes character, with exposed beams and oak furniture, while modern amenities ensure a comfortable stay. Guests will enjoy the large living area with a gas-burning stove, ideal for chilly evenings, as well as a fully stocked kitchen with a dishwasher and washing machine. The recently renovated bathroom offers a spacious freestanding shower. The property is pet-friendly, allowing one well-behaved pet to stay, though they should remain downstairs and not be left alone.

The picturesque village of Dunster, with its historic castle, and other nearby spots like Watchet and Porlock Weir provide additional sightseeing opportunities. Outside, the south-facing garden offers an excellent vantage point to take in the surrounding landscape, with a top terrace featuring outdoor furniture for guests to enjoy in the summer months.

Great location. Beautiful area. Tight parking. Mostly as described bit dirty, moldy, pet hair, lots of cob webs and some mice poop. Understandable an old cottage however dishes could have been cleaned better and the place could do with a clean to help the charm ooze through. Good for what we needed but a bit pricy for the location and cleanliness.

The house was as described. The location is great if you're looking for a quiet environment, but the nearest town isn't far away.
