A tremendous Victorian semi-detached house boasting stunning sea views and Quantock Hills, in the bustling seaside town of Minehead in Somerset. This spacious cottage is situated within driving distance from the beach, perfect for a family holiday to the south west. The sitting room features large comfortable sofas and TV, the ideal spot for a relaxing night in. The kitchen is modern and stylishly decorated with all of the equipment that you need to serve meals in the dining room where guests can enjoy beautiful views of Minehead and the sea through the bay window. The first floor comes with four cosy, welcoming bedrooms fit with basins, one of which is a regal four poster double with an en-suite shower room. Almost all of the rooms in this house come with different angles of the incredible surrounding scenery. The front porch of this house holds a little patio offering somewhere to sit and take in the views with a morning coffee before starting your busy day. The back garden is a delightful little courtyard, perfect for the children to play in. The town of Minehead has a lovely harbour and boasts a beautiful golden beach. Just a short drive away is Exmoor National Park where visitors can explore the wooded valleys, enjoy horseriding and stunning walks in the countryside. A wonderful cottage, 2 Moorlands can be enjoyed throughout the year.
The popular seaside resort of Minehead occupies a wonderful sheltered spot beneath the dramatic North Hill, on the lovely West Somerset Coast. This welcoming town boasts a mile long esplanade, providing a wonderful backdrop to the golden beach, whilst the pretty harbour, visited in the summer by the famous paddle steamer Waverley, offers excellent fishing opportunities. Enjoy a nostalgic steam train journey from the seafront on the West Somerset Railway, or visit Blenheim Gardens, winner of many awards for its beautiful floral displays. Renowned for the largest herd of red deer in England, Exmoor National Park with its wooded valleys, pretty bridlepaths and heather clad moors, is well worth a visit, whilst the magnificent Norman Castle at nearby Dunster is a must.

The only thing we missed was Netflix on the television and maybe a radio. However the most disappointing part was the dangerous approach to the house up a very steep and narrow path / lane. We did not attempt or consider walking up or down to the house. Unfortunately the surrounding area to get to the property was extremely hilly with very narrow lanes.
Bernard
A really comfortable stay and some significant improvements since last year, notably the new furniture on the enlarged terrace.

Could do with gates on patio areas to keep dogs in but we just moved a chair to block the gap. Spotlessly clean, everything you would ever need and the water and cake was a lovely welcoming touch. Would highly recommend this property.
