About this property
East Harwood Farm Cottage is secluded, and set high up in Exmoor National Park above Timberscombe. It has a tranquil setting, with stunning views. Ideal for walkers, and close to the coast. The cottage is 200 years old and adjoins the owner's farmhouse. Sorry, no under 5's. Strictly NO smoking.
Accommodation
The entrance to the property is via the hall with space for coats and boots, etc. Then straight into the living room which has a wood-burning stove for cosy evenings on the sofa. The dining table comfortably seats four and is by the entrance to the kitchen. The kitchen is equipped with a large electric range oven and hob, microwave, cookware, cutlery, crockery, glasses, etc. and an under-counter fridge with a small freezer compartment. Some non-perishable items will be provided, such as salt, pepper, oil, etc.
Upstairs there is one double bedroom with King sized bed, and one twin room. The bathroom comprises a bath with shower over, toilet and handbasin. A 2nd TV is in the King-sized bed room.
Electricity and heating costs are included in the price of your accommodation. Central heating is fitted throughout the property and there is a wood-burner in the living room for winter use. One basket of logs and some kindling will be provided. Further logs can be purchased on site from the owners if required.
Bed linen and towels are provided. Please bring outdoor/beach towels if you wish to take them with you on day trips.
Up to two dogs are welcome by prior arrangement, for a supplement of £15 per dog. Please do not allow your dogs on the furniture or upstairs.
Wifi is available, but given this is a rural area, speeds are typically slow. There is poor mobile coverage at the cottage itself, with some from EE and Vodafone. A 7KW EV charge point is available by negotiation with the owner, for which we charge £15 a time.
There is no washing machine at the property, but the owners will do a load for any guests staying for a week or more.
Sorry: No children under 5, as this is a farm with ponds and livestock.

Heel vriendelijk ontvangen en het contact was ook goed. Alles was goed beschreven en het huisje had veel goede voorzieningen. Ik was er met mijn twee zoontjes en waren heel blij dat we het bad konden gebruiken en de openhaard aan konden zetten. De ligging was perfect qua locatie. Bijna middenin Exmoor en alles goed op rij afstand. Wij hebben een geweldig verblijf gehad. Goede prijs kwaliteit verhouding en zouden heel graag terugkomen.

Lovely cottage, with everything that you need, and fantastic hosts. Extremely quiet and relaxing with stunning views. Some good pubs and places to eat within a 15 to 20 minute radius, with The Black Venus in Callacombe and The Lattrell Arms in Dunster being two that are worth a visit. Some great walks in the area, of which Tarr Steps and Horner Wood were really nice as you can walk alongside the river in each case.
