Guests say

Guests generally appreciate the Coach House's charm, spaciousness, and garden. The property's unique features, such as the record collection and musical instruments, add to its appeal. Somerset's beauty and local attractions enhance the experience. Some guests mention minor issues but the overall sentiment is positive.

Most reviews do not mention cleanliness issues, suggesting satisfactory standards. However, one review notes a 'fusty' smell upon arrival and cobwebs, indicating occasional lapses. Therefore, the score reflects generally good but inconsistent cleanliness.

The location is frequently praised for its proximity to local attractions, pubs, and natural beauty. The peaceful setting and accessibility to Somerset and Devon highlights make it a desirable spot. No negative comments about the location suggest a high score.

The property is described as homely and comfortable with spacious rooms and a peaceful garden. Some guests found the beds and pillows uncomfortable, and one mentioned issues with the bathroom setup, leading to a slightly reduced score.

Facilities like musical instruments and a well-equipped kitchen are appreciated, but there are concerns about the number of extension leads and the positioning of the TV. The bathroom facilities received mixed reviews, affecting the score.

While some guests mention a cream tea on arrival, others did not receive this, and there is no consistent mention of thoughtful gestures across the reviews. Due to the lack of consistent information, a score cannot be provided.

About this property

Located inside the Exmoor National Park, the principal part of this stunning converted Georgian coach house is perfect for a family retreat to the Somerset coastline. Explore Exmoor and the ancient parish of Nettlecombe from the doorstep, hunt for fossils along Somerset’s Jurassic coast or take a steam-train ride on the West Somerset Railway. Visit Cleeve Abbey, an ancient English Heritage monastery, the enchanting Dunster Castle, a National Trust gem, or the picturesque harbour town of Watchet, home to a marina, museums and thriving street markets. Or relax in the secluded and enclosed garden with a traditional open fronted barn. A south-facing outdoor sofa area is a real sun-trap. Enjoy an evening stroll to the nearby Notley Arms gastro-pub, for a drink in the beer garden or an award-winning meal. Or spend evenings cooking up a storm in the amply-equipped kitchen/diner before gathering round the dining table or enjoying a spot of alfresco dining on the patio. A magnificent first floor sitting room awaits upstairs, bursting with original features and local art, exposed oak beams, and a polished wooden floor. The ground floor houses a twin bedroom with doors out onto the garden and a double bedroom with en suite shower room, as well as a separate cloakroom with basin and WC. A third bedroom awaits on the first floor, with a double bed and an elegant en suite bathroom. There are a range of amenities located nearby, including the shops, pubs, restaurants, and cafés in Williton and Watchet. The Quantock Hills, an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty, is a short drive away.

Yarde is a peaceful hamlet, situated in the foothills of the Exmoor National Park. Close to the Quantock Hills Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty and the west Somerset coast, you are within easy reach of a number of fantastic walks and picturesque beaches. The area is well served by local shops and pubs, for grabbing essential items or for treating yourself to a tasty meal and refreshing beverage. The attractive West Somerset Railway also passes through the area, where you can enjoy journeying along the coast from Minehead and admiring unspoilt countryside.

  • Derek

    Great country cottage vibe. Everything worked as it should. Information provided was comprehensive and clear. The beds and pillows, however, were a bit uncomfortable.

  • Jessica

    We were 6 adults and 2 babies under 1. The house is spacious, with a nice big living room and a good-sized kitchen with steps leading down to a lovely garden. Somerset is beautiful, we had some great trips out and would definitely like to come back to see more. Thanks for a great stay and would highly recommend!
