A delightful little cottage. Beautifully appointed, comfortable, warm and cosy. En-suite shower rooms rather small but clean and nicely designed. Beautiful setting, though rather narrow lanes, but no problem. Dunster nearby and a really excellent Sunday lunch at the Kings Head, Luxborough. A very relaxing and enjoyable stay.

A very comfortable cottage and a superb location for walkers. Many walks direct from the front door - our car didn't move from our arrival to departure!

About the host

Hosted by Chris

Host profile image
The Granary is situated on the outskirts of the pretty village of Luxborough. The Royal Oak Inn serves drinks and good food, approx 1 mile away.

Wheddon Cross (approx 5 miles) has a newly refurbished mini-supermarket, Post Office facilities and petrol station with good opening times. Roadwater is also has a local shop and pub which serves food. Dunster is also approx 4 miles, but in the other direction, this wonderful medieval village is really worth a visit, it has lots of shops, restaurants, tea rooms and a village shop.

Minehead is the nearest town, approximately 7 miles away. Here you will find the larger supermarkets and petrol stations (Tesco and Morrisons are both situated on the outskirts of the town and have longer opening hours), most major high street banks with cash machines, plus a range of other shops throughout the town.

Tesco, Sainsbury's, Waitrose as well as Cook from Taunton will deliver.
