Cosy, peaceful & well located. I do know that we now need underfloor heating, didnât need to use the log burner. The dog was in heaven on her blanket. Think we took the wrong turning on the walk to the reservoir, make sure you check the detailed instructions. Lovely places of interest close by, Watchet is worth a few hours and Minehead is more than just a Butlins. Everything is so perfect, it's just a suggestion, There's an airfryer there, embarrassingly we took ours! It has everything you need. We will be back.
