Horner Cottage in Luccombe is a self-contained one bedroom holiday property in the rural village of Luccombe, nestled at the foot of Dunkery. Just 2 miles from the sea Horner Cottage is well suited to couples looking for a peaceful getaway.
The cottage is fitted with central heating throughout. There is also an 'electric wood-burner' in the sitting room. Heating, electricity and wifi are all included in the price of the accommodation.
Bed linen and towels are provided, but please bring your own beach towels if you wish to take them on day trips.
The kitchen is well-equipped with a broad range of cooking equipment, pots and pans as well as crockery/cutlery/glassware.
The water supply comes from a local natural spring.
Please note that there are no food or drink items in the welcome pack.
As with much of Exmoor, mobile phone reception in the cottage is very poor. However, if you turn ‘WiFi Calling’ on on your mobile you will be able to make/receive calls/texts over the cottage WiFi - you can often find this tab under Settings and then Phone, or alternatively contact your service provider and ask them to activate it.

This was our third winter stay at Horner Cottage. It is an ideal size for two people and very well equipped. We particularly appreciate the spotless condition we have found it in on every visit.

This was our seventh visit, which speaks for itself.

As we opened the front door were greeted by warmth, a delicate perfume and a beautiful bouquet of flowers from the garden on the hall table. In the kitchen there was a generous welcome gift enclosed in a card by Jo Taylor, an artist who stays there. Even more, the welcome folder enclosed a walkers' map of the area for us to keep. How very thoughtful! On further exploration we found the delightful cottage to be surprisingly spacious for the two of us. The lounge contained helpful guidebooks but our favourite was a large book with historic photographs of Selworthy and Luccombe. A guide at Dunster Castle was most insistent that we should visit Watchet the next day, Wednesday, as it was also Market Day. This we did, but we made it extra special by travelling there from Dunster Station on a steam train (parking £1). The Kitchen, East Quay, provided a superb vegetarian lunch. Parking was not as ideal in Porlock for the magnificent Exmoor Coaster trip. Beware, Doverhay Car Park, the location of the bus stop, is only a short stay car park! Unexpectedly, friends were staying in Selworthy at the same time. We enjoyed a memorable meal together at The Lower Ship in Porlock Weir, a perfect venue. The pork and salmon dishes were excellent. There's a vehicle registration recognition system in place in the main car park, so you just tap in the car registration when you are about to leave to find out how much you have to pay. Walking through Luccombe on our arrival, we found free beans on offer. Another perfect welcome! We didn't have time to enjoy all we wanted to do in the area, so will just have to return!
