Mr Partridge
September 2020

“No tumble dryer, pretty much essential when staying for more than one week No wi-fi in the main bedroom, a simple extender would cure this.”

Lack of tv instructions

- Mr Partridge, September 2020
Mrs Rushin September 2020

“Thornesmill Barn was exceptionally clean and well prepared, many thanks go to the housekeeping team.”

communication with the owners was exceptional both before and during our stay. We had a small issue with a light in the kitchen and this was dealt with promptly, a visit that evening from the owner who then arranged for an electrician to come. There was no disruption to our stay whatsoever. A great place to stay to explore the region, comfortable, centrally located with all the amenities we could wish for. I would not hesitate to recommend the barn to anyone.

“This is a return visit and in spite of certain Covid restrictions our stay was just as enjoyable.”

A lovely spacious property that I am sure we will return to again.

Mrs Pearse August 2020

“Centrally located, spacious & comfortable accommodation for 4 adults & 2 primary aged children.”

Good washing/drying facilities & storage.

- Mrs Pearse, August 2020
Mrs Deakin August 2020

“Spotless inside very comfy beds.”

The only negative was the garden definitely not child friendly and the garden furniture very tired and tatty. Considering they have been closed for several weeks they could have treated the garden furniture to a treatment has its all dried out n very shabby.

The property

Hidden in a quiet cul de sac on the edge of Watchet, within an easy walk of the pretty town, marina and the West Somerset steam railway station, a spacious home converted from a barn.

To one side, an enclosed garden with lawn, flower beds and suntrap gravelled area (picnic table, barbecue).

Doniford Beach, 1 mile; Helwell Beach (fossils), 20 minute walk.

A very lovely hidden gem of a cottage in a great spot for exploring this lively town and interesting Somerset coastline.

About the location

WATCHET

Minehead 9 miles.

Watchet is a delightful, small Somerset harbour town with a maritime history going back over two millennia, where visitors may enjoy the variety of quaint shops on offer and watch the boats in the marina. Watchet attracts railway enthusiasts from all around, as The West Somerset Railway, twenty miles of preserved steam railway, passes through Watchet and continues through stunning scenery to the coastal town of Minehead, approximately nine miles away. There are superb walks along the coast from Watchet, while towards St Audries in the east, the Quantock Hills rise to 1,000 feet above the sea and the Brendon Hills and Exmoor are to the west, within easy reach. Explore the many pretty coastal and inland villages including Porlock, with its steep hill and pretty winding streets, Dunster with its dramatic castle perched above the historic village and the busy resort of Minehead with its sandy beach, golf course and traditional seaside attractions. This is an excellent choice of holiday destination for rural beauty, dramatic coastline and splendid walking.

Note: This property sleeps a maximum of 6 plus 1 baby.
