Watchet Cottage

Our holiday cottage in the heart of the ancient harbour town of Watchet, boasting a colourful maritime history dating back over two thousand years.

Nestled between Exmoor National Park and the Quantock Hills it is a cosy cottage for couples or families to enjoy the town and surrounding area with all local shops, real ale pubs, harbour, beach and the West Somerset Steam Railway on your doorstep.

The cottage sleeps four, with one double and one twin room (one of the single beds can be stowed to make space for your own supplied cot) with a family bathroom and downstairs cloakroom providing plenty of facilities.

It has a well equipped modern kitchen with double leather sofa's and an LED Smart TV in the sitting room for cosy evenings in. With WiFi also available to upload pictures of your days adventures.

Outside is a furnished private courtyard garden ideal for al frescho dinning or just to enjoy a glass of wine after a long day exploring.

Parking is available in adjoining carpark, also please note that to minimise the impact on the environment from short stays at our cottage, we don’t supply towels

Well behaved dogs welcome

We will be back!
The property was clean. A short walk from the harbour. The property was dog friendly, unlike some other places which say that they are but blatantly aren’t. We respected the owners wishes for our dog not to go upstairs but he was more than happy in the courtyard garden until we took him out for lots of walks. The people of Watchet were so very friendly. We will be returning soon.

Not clean
On arrival we were unable to access the key from the safe with the code we were given and had to contact the owner. Fridge and worktops were dirty the floor hadn't been mopped and was sticky .This was very disappointing as there is meant to be extra cleaning with covid!!!. The plugs in both the sinks and the bath didn't work.Every time you make a slice of toast or open the oven door the smoke alarm goes off. Very disapointed with the standard of this property.

Lovely spot, great access to everything
Great property, cozy and clean and in an amazing location. Perfect for our stay. Loved that you could quite literally step out of the door and onto Swain street (the main street in town), while still being quiet and isolated in the small gated court. Would have preferred to receive the check in details a little sooner and would have liked to have the lack of towels explicitly spelled out ahead of time. We did not notice this until the check in message when we were already in town, luckily we have family in town so we were able to borrow some. Other than that, perfect stay and will definitely be using this spot on our next visit to Watchet.
