The cottage is lovely and quaint and in an ideal position in Watchet. Was made very welcome by the owner and the cleaner, especially with the chritmas touches. Kitchen looks much better now then photos. Would definitely return.

Perfect for one or two people to enjoy great location in lovely area. Lots of interesting things to see and nice walks close by. Cottage very comfortable with all that’s needed. Great to watch tide coming in and out and wildlife in stream from windows.
