    “Very well maintained clean, comfortable accommodation.”

    Always good in the winter to walk into a warm place after a long journey and find fresh milk, coffee and biscuits. It’s the little touches that make all the difference. Well equipped kitchen with sharp knives, enough crockery and glasses and decent pans. Have already recommended to a friend and hope to use this accommodation again in the future.

The property

1 Marsh Gardens is a beautifully presented Coach House located in Dunster, between the village and the beach.

It is described as one of England's most beautiful and fascinating medieval villages.

Perfect for the beaches, the North Somerset Coastal Path and exploring beautiful Exmoor.

You have your own reserved, off-road parking at the rear of the house and the use of the garage to securely store bikes, paddle boards etc.

Leave your coat and shoes in the hallway and make your way up the stairs to the bright and airy open plan living area and wonderful views.

A great place to dine, cook and relax; unwind on the two sofas as the Smart TV plays your favourite shows.

The kitchen has an electric oven, gas hob, microwave, undercounter fridge and freezer, dishwasher, and coffee machine.

At the end of the day, you can retreat to the two good sized bedrooms consisting of a double with an en-suite shower room and twin room with family bathroom.

Both rooms are both as delightful as the next, boasting contemporary furniture and luxurious Egyptian cotton linen.

There is no garden at the property, but who needs one with a great beach less than 1 mile away, perfect for those evening barbecues and watching the great sunsets.

The village centre is a short stroll away, offering you a great selection of independent shops, deli, tea rooms, pubs, restaurants and a host of historic buildings and church.

Standing above the village is the fascinating National Trust Dunster Castle and Watermill.

Jump in the car to visit the coastal town of Minehead which has a variety of offerings, from 3 supermarkets, a mile-long esplanade, golden beach, Harbour, Southwest Coastal Path, Butlins, Golf Course, sea front traditional activities, and the Southwest Steam Railway.

The Coach House at 1 Marsh Gardens is a great base from which to explore the coast or the Exmoor National Park.

About the location

DUNSTER

Minehead 3 miles.

Dunster is a popular tourist village near the North Somerset coast and is a largely unspoiled spot: the centre of the town retains many old buildings which hug the winding cobbled streets. The whole village is dominated by the castle on its hill but the focal point of the High Street is the picturesque Yarn Market, a covered area built in 1609 particularly to accommodate the wool traders and other cloth merchants. Inside Dunster castle there are fine plasterwork ceilings and the extensive terraced and landscaped gardens contain many rare shrubs and trees, and offer marvelous views out to sea, and towards the Quantocks. For those who enjoy exploring the countryside, Dunster is within the Exmoor National Park and there are plenty of footpaths leading onto the surrounding hills of Grabbist and walks into Dunster’s Deer Park at the foot of the castle. Dunster is well served with traditional inns, individual shops and interesting places to explore including the working 18th century watermill. West Somerset’s premier resort of Minehead is less than three miles away and has golden sandy beaches, seaside attractions for the visitor, and plenty of cafes, shops and bistros.
