About this property

Limecombe, Simonsbath is a unique cottage with an interesting history; it sits at the head of a private valley in a serene, remote location. The property sleeps up to 10 guests in 5 bedrooms, each with a private bath/shower room. Ideal for gatherings of family or friends, and pet-friendly.

Accommodation

The entrance to the property from the car parking area is directly into the kitchen and dining room, which has a large table to comfortably seat 10. The kitchen is well equipped with two gas ovens and hob, microwave, fridge/freezer, dishwasher and washing machine. The tumble dryer is located in the external utility room.
A central hallway leads through to the comfortable sitting room with wood-burner, TV with FreeSat, wifi, DVD player, and a selection of books and games is provided too.
Four of five bedrooms are located on the ground floor, three twin bedrooms and one bedroom with zip-link beds which can therefore be made up as another twin or as a super-king double bed. Two of the ground floor bedrooms are only accessible via an external door (out of the kitchen door and just a few steps along the outside of the cottage). The ground floor bedrooms each have an allocated shower room, comprising walk-in shower, toilet and hand basin.
The fifth bedroom is upstairs, a steep staircase leads up from the hallway, the bedroom upstairs also has zip-link beds so can also be made up as another twin or as a super-king double bed. The upstairs bathroom comprises a bath, toilet and hand basin.
Though you would never know it, the cottage runs off solar panels, batteries and a back-up generator.
Electricity and heating costs are included in the price of your accommodation. Central heating is fitted throughout the property and there is a wood-burner in the living room. There will be a complimentary basket of logs for the wood burner and if you require more, further available at £5 per bag, money to be put in the honesty box please.
Bed linen and towels are provided for your convenience. Please bring outdoor/beach towels if you wish to take them with you on day trips.
Up to 2 well-behaved dogs welcome. Please do not allow them on the furniture or in the bedrooms please, thank you for your cooperation.
Please note that Limecombe is a wonderful, rural hide away and is not connected to mains services. There has recently been a mobile service mast upgrade so there is now a mobile signal outside the cottage on the EE network (only) but service indoors remains intermittent. There is a landline available for emergency use only. Due to remoteness BT are challenged with maintaining a good clear line. Wifi (via satellite) is available at the cottage which is usually quite fast (for Exmoor) and enables voice calling and messaging if required.

Tastefully furnished, comfortable and fully equipped with everything you could need for a self catering break. We loved the wild, romantic remoteness of the location and the lack of mobile signal was a welcome bonus for 10 busy adults. Having a huge table to sit around to chat, drink, eat and play games was fantastic and of course the big selling point and one of the many reasons why we chose the cottage was the individual bathrooms per room. Everything was immaculately clean . Booking process and general information was flawless ( especially the detailed travel instructions) and Charlie responded to our enquiries swiftly. A thoroughly amazing experience.

The cottage was absolutely everything we hoped it would be and so perfect for our group of 9 friends, we mainly congregated around the big dining table in the well equipped kitchen. The beds were super comfortable with lovely bedding and soft furnishings. Lovely showers with plenty of hot water and fluffy towels. Such a lovely cottage and we hope to return. Excellent location for exploring Exmoor and seeing wildlife.

We had an absolutely wonderful stay at Limecombe! The house was unbelievable and the views each morning spectacular in the October sun! The place was clean and well maintained and perfect for a large group to socialise in the spacious kitchen and living area. Bathrooms and bedrooms were amazing with such comfy beds! The only thing that made our stay less than perfect was the difficulty getting in and out of the location. We arrived in the dark making it impossible for us to find. Had it not been for others who had arrived in daylight we wouldn’t have found it at all. The secluded spot is definitely nice but having to drive around several large fields on a bumpy route through at least 4 farm gates that need opening and closing made it a lot more effort than anticipated.
