This is our 3rd time of staying at this lovely home away from home. We booked a short break over the new year and it was all we hopped it would be. The cottage is in a great location and perfect to explore the wider area from. You can, if you wanted to, park your car and not use it again as there.... This is our 3rd time of staying at this lovely home away from home. We booked a short break over the new year and it was all we hopped it would be. The cottage is in a great location and perfect to explore the wider area from. You can, if you wanted to, park your car and not use it again as there is a small deli/shop, resturants, pubsand tea rooms, Dunster Castle and lots of walks all on your doorstep. I am certain we will be back for a fourth stay soon!
