The cottage had all the mod cons , our little boy loved the tv in the bathroom and massive tv in the living room . The beds were really comfy. The availability of washing machine and tumble drier was great to wash out swimsuits and towels after a day at the beach. The location was excellent , 2 min walk to the high street and a lovely coffee shop on the other side of the road out side the tourist info shop. We ate in several of the pubs and restaurants all good but the highlight was reeves for hubbies birthday which was excellent.

What an amazing find!! I have stayed in many holiday cottages and villas over the years and this one was by far the nicest. Well equipped, beautifully decorated, attention to detail above and beyond. We arrived Halloween evening and the cottage had been decorated, treats left out for us to give out to any children who called or a note to put on the door (complete with blue tack) if we preferred not to answer the door. The welcome pack was gratefully received and a very thoughtful touch. My daughter is study at college in Minehead and we will definitely book again next time we visit. Dunster is beautiful with pubs and tea rooms aplenty while Minehead and the local beaches were in easy reach. Thank you
