We loved this cottage which is all heart! Owner has put much thought and care into it. If we had a suggestion that would be to leave a pint of milk for newcomers who may have had a long journey and longing for a cuppa!!!

Beautiful cottage
We have stayed at the cottage several times and we love it! The cottage is immaculate. It has everything you need for a comfortable stay, even a towel in the porch for muddy dog paws. The weather was mixed but we managed to go walking every day. Walked up to North Hill and saw some lovely Exmoor ponies and our dog loved playing on Dunster beach. We will definitely be back.

This is a gem of a cottage, spotlessly clean and well located for either a walk up to North hill or along the sea front. Whatever you decide there are plenty of places to eat and drink along the way. Great comms with the host too

A week in MInehead
We had an enjoyable stay at 1 The Cross. Property very clean, well equipped and with a small private garden. Unfortunately weather was not good but we still managed to visit various local attractions. Town is a short steep downhill walk away but alternatively there are lot of Pay & Display parking spaces available.
