Friendly village. Highly recommend the Busk Stop pub for local ciders. We walked from Watchet to Minehead and came back on the steam train. Cosy house and just right for the three of us. ##### Michael G.

Stayed 7 nights in Oct 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Anita B. 20 Aug 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### 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. ##### Anita B. Stayed 7 nights in Aug 2024 ### 2/10 Terrible #### sara h. 21 Sept 2021 Disliked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, listing accuracy #### 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. ##### sara h.

Small town with lovely people and lots of places to eat and drink. Lots of beautiful places to visit in the local area and enjoyed the peace and quiet ##### Sharon P. Stayed 3 nights in Mar 2020 ### 8/10 Good #### Scott H. 13 Sept 2019 Liked: Cleanliness, communication, location, listing accuracy #### 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. ##### Scott H.
