“Definitely recommend to friends and family.”

A very comfortable stay.

A very comfortable stay.

David November 2025

“The cottage was nice, but not terribly clean; some of the kitchen utensils / pots & pans ere pretty dirty.”

Annoyingly, no coffee in the welcome pack; an empty salt cellar, (why?), no washing machine tablets, and enough washing up liquid to fill a sink once. Surely the basics of a welcome pack could have included these? You advertise as pet friendly, yet there are half a dozen rules and regulations you must follow, when reading the rather shabby welcome folder. Why could these not be available at the time of booking? In my opinion, you are either pet friendly or you are not . That aside, the cottage was very comfortable, and we enjoyed our stay.

- David, November 2025

Thank you for your feedback, we always aim to improve where we can. We do leave coffee / tea and sometimes sachets of hot chocolate, sugar. Apologies if there wasn't coffee. We also provide some cleaning materials in the kitchen, but it's self catering and we do not normally provide cooking sauces, salt, etc. These are in the cottage from time to time but we don't say these are included as rule. Washing up liquid / some dishwasher tablets are normally provided as are a few logs for the fire too, but we don't provide logs for whole of stay. Like with other elements of start / welcome pack, it should be enough for your arrival. We do have a washing machine but don't supply machine tablets etc as they can be dangerous to children if left around. Reference pet friendly, we do welcome dogs and like to be as pet friendly as possible. We don't provide pet bedding and ask dog owners to bring pet bedding with them and also keep dogs of furniture. We don't feel this is too much to ask and there certainly isn't lots of rules. Once again thank you for your feedback it's been taken on board. Property Owner
Isobel August 2025

“We loved our stay in this charming Dunster getaway!”

The kitchen had everything we needed, the bath and shower were wonderful with hot water on demand, and the beds were incredibly comfortable. The location couldn't have been better-full of character, intimate, and just steps from great restaurants and attractions. A perfect place to relax and enjoy the beauty of this medieval village!

- Isobel, August 2025

thank you for you kind feedback, we're glad you enjoyed your stay. We feel Dunster has that something special too. Property Owner
Lucy August 2025

“Lovely, comfortable cottage with everything you might need for your stay.”

Tidy, clean and well maintained. Would be useful to have twin beds in one room. The bells of the Church to the rear of the cottage take some getting used to at night especially during the Summer when windows need to be open. Free parking is possible around Dunster but the spots opposite the cottage do seem to be taken more often than not. Beautiful village location with plenty of local walks and other things to do in and around Dunster.

- Lucy, August 2025

Thank you Lucy for your feedback. Property Owner
Diana November 2024

“Very comfortable cosy cottage,excellent position for local walks only downside was parking.”

- Diana, November 2024
Peter April 2024

“Very comfortable.”

Very warm, in fact, had to turn heating down. The kitchen, while small, has every conceivable gadget you could need. A great location in the very heart of Dunster. Only one niggle, parking in the vicinity can be fraught, and is clearly a problem for all residents, not ideal if you have a large car!

- Peter, April 2024
Steven April 2024

“Property is listed as having a garden but we couldn't find it when we arrived”

- Steven, April 2024
Carol March 2024

“Well equipped kitchen, comfy beds, log burner and in the centre of Dunster.”

Plenty of local shops and places to eat and very close to Dunster Castle. Definitely recommended and we will come back again.

- Carol, March 2024
Ali March 2024

“We had a lovely week at Little Dragons.”

The cottage was clean, well equipped and very comfortable.

- Ali, March 2024
Paula December 2023

“The cottage is in an ideal location for anyone looking to stay in Dunster.”

It is very cosy and warm. The kitchen was well equipped and the beds were very comfortable. Communication was excellent from the host. There was lots of information available regarding the local area. We really enjoyed our stay at Little Dragons.

- Paula, December 2023
Lynda November 2023

“Lovely cosy cottage near to the centre of Dunster.”

There's lots to do in the area and good walks straight from the cottage. The owner left a few logs and sticks of kindling for a fire on one night. This is one of the few cottages we have booked with Helpful Holidays where the owner did not leave a welcome pack, not even a pint of milk which would have been nice given that Dunster Deli was closed through the duration of our stay and the nearest supermarkets were in Minehead. Nevertheless, this is a nice little cottage.

- Lynda, November 2023
John September 2023

“Very welcoming with welcome treats.”

Very clean and comfortable. Everything you need. Good to be in the centre of the village. Parking ok mostly. The chiming clock no problem for us. The area is perfect for us with walking or seaside ,lovely villages and wonderful woodland walks. We found the area four years ago and come back every year. See you next year

- John, September 2023
Heather September 2023

“Comfortable cosy cottage, well equipped with everything we needed, good quality king size bed.”

Great location in centre of Dunster - and what a gorgeous village, Castle and grounds. Great walks from the door and lots to do in immediate area. Lots of useful recommendations in the visitors book. We found the church bells charming albeit relentless! . Luckily the front bedroom has new very good double glazed windows so the sound was muffled at night! Back double is only single glazed but we didn't need to use that one. The communal garden is very close but was disappointingly very overgrown.

- Heather, September 2023

Thank you for your comments and positive feedback. Much appreciated, always makes the effort worth while. We are in conversations about regular garden maintenance. Property Owner
Christine June 2023

“A perfect holiday cottage.”

Very clean and comfortable. Luxury bedding, beautiful soft furnishings quality furniture and appliances. Ideally located. We loved the Communal garden Full of wild flowers and interesting plants. It was a tranquil haven. We will definitely book again. Thank You

- Christine, June 2023

Thank you for your kind feedback, we're glad you enjoyed your stay in Dunster. Makes the hard work and effort worthwhile :) Property Owner
Tracey June 2023

“The communication from the owner, Stuart, was great.”

He ensured that we had all the information needed for a great stay. We loved the cottage and Dunster. The village is beautiful and the castle is on your doorstep. It was a part of the uk we had not really explored but we will definitely be back!

- Tracey, June 2023

Thank you for positive review and feedback. We are passionate about the area and as we holiday ourselves in and around Dunster, so hopefully this first hand regular experience helps our guests :) Property Owner
Lynne May 2023

“Rear courtyard was none existant, rubbish bin and wooden shed took up all the room.”

Stairs are definately not for the faint hearted being both very steep and handrail inadequate. While the cottage was used as a base, I'm sorry to say I won't be staying there again. Shared garden seemed more like a dumping ground, badly maintained and not user friendly. Luckily the people in Dunster made my stay there, but I won't be staying in Little Dragons again.

- Lynne, May 2023
Emma December 2022

“Little Dragon cottage is a very cosy place with everything you need inside and about Dunster village.”

We only found that it needed a mirror in the back bedroom as there isn’t one and maybe one downstairs apart from the bathroom. All in all a perfect stay, thank you Little Dragon

- Emma, December 2022
Carol November 2022

“Little Dragons is the best holiday cottage I have ever booked with Sykes.”

It is well maintained, clean and so well equipped. I am highly recommended it to everyone who wants to stay in Dunster, which is a beautiful picturesque village with so many walks, close to the sea and so many areas of natural beauty.

- Carol, November 2022

Thanks for the review Carol, glad you enjoyed your stay. Property Owner
Kim October 2022

“Bathroom needs some updating, kitchen lounge door needs to be planed as it rubs ...”

Bathroom needs some updating, kitchen lounge door needs to be planed as it rubs against kitchen floor tiles every time you open it

- Kim, October 2022
Jane September 2022

“It is a lovely little cottage in a pretty village.”

It could probably benefit from some independent heating for the bathroom, especially for the months not in summer.

- Jane, September 2022
Lynne September 2022

“We thoroughly enjoyed our week in Dunster.”

The cottage was cosy and comfortable. A well equipped kitchen. Beds comfortable. Friendly locals. Great food at the Stag. Lovely walks from the doorstep. Dunster Castle which was a great day out. Cider Farms close by, we enjoyed sampling our purchase in the communal orchard. The weather was fantastic all week.

- Lynne, September 2022
Kim August 2022

“Lovely cottage in a peaceful location, surrounding area is beautiful.”

Dunster beach is quiet and great for long walks with the dog. Everything we needed for a relaxing week :)

- Kim, August 2022
Sarah June 2022

“Really lovely cottage, very well presented and all the facilities you need a real home from home.”

Owner provided very comprehensive instructions and advice on parking, things to do and local area. Plenty of places to eat within walking distance in a beautiful setting. Only comment would be church bells do ring all night long which we had not realised from the information / property description but we really enjoyed our stay.

- Sarah, June 2022
Coral June 2022

“Comfortable beds, lots of hot water, kitchen well equipped and log burner makes it cosy in miserable weather .”

This is an old property, it is characteristically small with steep narrow staircase to bedrooms and the road outside gets busy at school time. The church bells chime every 15 mins 24/7. These are not faults, it something you have to accept about staying in old property in Dunster. Could do with a mirror in second bedroom though.

- Coral, June 2022
David March 2022

“Recommended.”

Great little cottage with comfortable bedrooms, a well appointed kitchen and a cosy living room. Excellent location for local walking - the Deer Park and countryside beyond are all within easy reach. Coastal walking in the National Park is only a short drive away. There are various supermarkets in nearby Minehead.

- David, March 2022
Liz February 2022

“This cottage is in the lovely village of Dunster.”

Lots of local walks. The cottage is a stones throw away from all the local amenities such as pubs, shops tea rooms. Stuart was very informative about the local area prior to our visit. The kitchen was very well equipped. Everywhere was clean and tidy.

- Liz, February 2022
Paul February 2022

“Great little cottage in a gorgeous location.”

Accommodation is well presented , clean and comfortable. The only thing that was a bit of a problem was the church bells (all through the night) so we left a night early as my son staying in the back room couldn’t sleep.

- Paul, February 2022
Peter January 2022

“Little Dragans cottage is lovely, very cosy, warm and comfortable.”

It was spotlessly clean throughout and furnished to a high standard. The kitchen was very well equipped with everything we needed and more. The cottage is set in the beautiful village of Dunster and is within walking distance to pubs and places to eat. As others have said we found the church bells ringing very pleasant rather than disturbing. Stuart, the owner was very informative and helpful. We would not hesitate to recommend this cottage to anyone. Thanks for a lovely holiday, hopefully we will be booking again at the end of the year.

- Peter, January 2022
Miles December 2021

“Christmas dekkies please!”

- Miles, December 2021
Carol November 2021

“Little Dragons is the best Sykes Cottage I have ever stayed in.”

The cottage is well equipped with everything I needed and more, I didn't need half the kitchen stuff I took with me, based on previous cottages. The decor is beautiful, only minor inconvenience is the downstairs bathroom in the middle of the night. A comfy cosy cottage right in the middle of Dunster, plenty of walks with my dog, scenery is stunning, locals are friendly and we discovered a traditional pub at the end of West Street which does homemade food, absolutely delicious, visited 3 times during the week. I will definitely return to Little Dragons we had a brilliant time. Thank you Stuart.

- Carol, November 2021
Michael October 2021

“Great place to stay, very close to the Castle (even though the Castle only open weekends from 1st November!”

). I would have given it 5 stars if it wasn't for the parking. Even though we did get a parking place every day, it was a constant source of anxiety.

- Michael, October 2021
Gabrielle August 2021

“I have stayed at this lovely little cottage several years ago, it is kept beautifully and very well maintained.”

- Gabrielle, August 2021
Nicola July 2021

“Lovely, clean and cosy cottage with good facilities.”

Dunster is gorgeous with fabulous walks and scenery. The cottage could have done with a heated laundry airer or tumble drier as it's very hard to get swimming things and washing to dry there.

- Nicola, July 2021
Claire July 2021

“Loved it! Great space and a wonderful centre for lots of lovely walking - hardly needed the car - such a rich surroundings.”

Very comfortable cottage with everything we needed. We enjoyed the communal gardens (never saw anyone in there) and ate our dinner in there most nights. The church bells do ring every quarter hour but hand on heart, you stop hearing them. It's most bizarre but true. Stuart was a great host, really helpful and we highly recommend this lovely cottage.

- Claire, July 2021
Lesley July 2021

“Great little cottage, well equipped and very comfortable in a central location in the village of Dunster.”

Would return here if we stayed in this part of the country again.

- Lesley, July 2021
Judith May 2021

“Exactly as advertised and even better equipped.”

We had a lovely weekend. The cottage was spotlessly clean, had everything we needed (and more) with lovely touches. We decided the beds were "magic" as we slept so well, once accustomed to the regular church chimes (suggest ear plugs if that might bother you), superbly comfortable, as was the living room furniture. The weather was changeable but we managed to get out for a couple of walks around the picturesque village and up to the folly for wonderful views in every direction, the hills one side and the coast, from the Bristol channel over to Wales in the other. Close to many beaches and easy distance from Minehead if you require more than the quaint shops in Dunster village can provide. (Lovely deli but could we find toothpaste anywhere? Maybe when lockdown fully eases there is a more general store but was a good excuse to pop into Minehead). Would recommend this charming accommodation.

- Judith, May 2021
Joanne December 2020

“Congratulations to the owners, on a well equipped comfortable cottage.”

So clean, such a treat, to stay in a holiday cottage, that you do not have to clean on arrival. In times of Covid, this is so important. Many thanks for a super break

- Joanne, December 2020
Marion October 2020

“Lovely cosy and very well equipped cottage within walking distance of the High St.”

Really good places to eat. Lots of places to visit and Exmoor on the doorstep. A very enjoyable break

- Marion, October 2020
Peter October 2020

“The cottage was excellent but dealing with Sykes was problematic”

- Peter, October 2020
Philippa September 2020

“Lovely cottage, very clean and all amenities you could possibly need.”

The beds were extremely comfortable. Loved being able to have the stable door open in the evenings. We were lucky with the parking, managed to get a spot outside the cottage every day, if you get back to the cottage after the school run, you're usually lucky. My Dad and I had a lovely stay, the only difficulty was it was up the hill from the village which was a problem for my father as he has trouble walking, so worth keeping that in mind when looking for your holiday cottage. The rest however was just lovely and I would not hesitate to stay there again with a friend or recommend it to others.

- Philippa, September 2020
Emily August 2020

“We really loved the cottage, which was perfect for 3 adults.”

The nearness to the centre of Dunster was a real bonus. We managed to park every day without too much difficulty but I think parking could be very difficult in high season. The cottage was well equipped with lovely hot water all the time. Some of the kitchen equipment (pans) were a bit jaded. A few more logs for the wood burner would have been nice. Overall, a lovely holiday!

- Emily, August 2020
Cheryl August 2020

“A lovely little cottage full of character.”

A cosy lounge with wood burner and two big double bedrooms, we enjoyed a very comfortable stay. Parking wasn’t a problem and the helpful pointers from the owners meant we could always park close to the cottage. The church bells do ring regularly and throughout the night but they didn’t bother us and we were sleeping in the back bedroom with the window open, this didn’t stop us from enjoying many a good nights sleep. We very much appreciated all of the guidance provided by the owners on local walks, things to do and places to eat. Dunster Castle is approx 5 mins walks from the cottage and Dunster beach about 25 mins. The little utility room was great to hang wetsuits after a trip to Wimbleball Lake for a spot of Paddle boarding, as was the washing machine after getting wet on a walk back from Dunster beach. The cottage was furnished to a high standard throughout, the bathroom is downstairs but that didn’t bother us, shower over bath nice and powerful and always lots of hot water. Both bedrooms were a great size, bedding and extra soft blankets were plentiful. Thanks for a great week.

- Cheryl, August 2020
Zoe August 2020

“It was all fantastic.”

Only thing was no logs provided for the fire. Despite it being summer, we had a lot of rainy walks and were quite chilli on returning to the cottage and wet shoes to dry so a fire would have been perfect. I know you said there would be a pack of logs so I assume it was a mistake. The location was amazing. So close to the pubs, tea shops and so many places to walk and the beach. The church clock chimes every 15 mins all night and sometimes for three minutes, which did wake me a few times, but we can live with that.

- Zoe, August 2020
John October 2019

“A pleasant, well-situated property for enjoying Dunster and the surrounding areas.”

Happy to recommend it. Some microwaveable bowls for cooking would have been helpful.Possibly air locks, but loud noises from the pipes when the taps were turned on. We agree that the noise from the church occurs at more times than advertised on the listing but actually we found than pleasant and atmospheric rather than disturbing.

- John, October 2019
Angela August 2019

“Lovely cottage in a great location.”

Dunster beautiful with easy access along the coast to Minehead, Porlock and further.

- Angela, August 2019
Amanda July 2019

“Lovely “little” cottage in a beautiful village.”

Plenty to do and see in the area. Communication by the owners was excellent.

- Amanda, July 2019
Clare June 2019

“The cottage was in a great location.”

I was surprised that there wasn’t a food shop in Dunster. The whole area is very attractive and we had wonderful weather so we’re able to go out walking every day. Couldn’t get the overhead shower to work and never found the shared garden, not a problem for us but may be for others. Lots of helpful leaflets in the cottage and the Exmoor National Park ofiice/shop in the town is a mine of information. Somerset has a lot of free parking which is good. The information regarding when the bells chimed, provided by Sykes, was inaccurate. It’s not 3 times a day, more like 23 and they don’t just chime the hour, it’s every quarter and you usually get a tune at the end of the chimes which can last up to 2 minutes. I live in the centre of Shrewsbury and I am well used to bells. I did adjust and it wouldn’t stop me staying there again.

- Clare, June 2019

“This doesn’t feel like a holiday cottage , it feels like staying at friends .”

The cottage feels loved and lived in unlike some rental properties . The kitchen is very well equipped and we cooked most nights . Everything is spotlessly clean , the shower is lovely , with excellent water pressure . We will definitely be back again next year .

I was a wonderful cottage in a super location

- Ann, September 2018
Tricia August 2018

“Really well equipped for cooking equipment.”

We think there is a problem with clothes moths in the cottage. When it rained, water cascades into the bedroom window from the blocked gutter above.

- Tricia, August 2018
Hazel July 2018

“A very well equipped cottage.”

Surprisingly spacious. Parking sometimes tricky near cottage. Church bells unusual but quirky. Sounded loudest the first night!

Rosalind May 2018

“Great place to stay, within walking distance of the village (fab deli, newsagent, cafes, pubs, restaurants but no general store) and amazing coastal paths.”

The cottage itself was cosy, very comfortable indeed, lovely beds, crisp, clean linen, plenty of towels, big sofas for relaxing on in the evening, wi fi, television, well equipped kitchen and so peaceful. Two, very minor, points worth mentioning: 1. I couldn't get any mobile signal inside the cottage - because the walls were so thick probably. It might bother others more - I just turned off my phone and forgot that the rest of the world existed for a week. 2. There's no general store - no Spar hidden behind a mediaeval façade so although the deli sells milk , bread and some toiletries (as well as an amazing selection of cheeses and other delicious things), we had to go to Minehead for the boring every day stuff. Just bear it in mind if, like us, you're not coming by car. All the arrangements through Sykes and with the owner were easy and clear. Can't wait to go back again.

- Rosalind, May 2018
Neville April 2018

“Quite surprised how much morning/evening traffic using this narrow side road, some obviously school related.”

Parking opposite can be down to timing. Church bells may take a night or two to get used to. Thoroughly enjoyed our short-break, parked the car opposite and walked around Dunster, to Minehead, to Dunster Station and Beach and back through Carhampton.

- Neville, April 2018

“Little Dragons was excellent and very comfortable.”

It had everything we needed including a kitchen which had everything to cook a Christmas dinner with. Both my daughter and I slept brilliantly! The wood burner was fantastic. Dunster is a lovely quaint village which we both loved, and all the surrounding villages were both interesting and friendly. I would not hesitate to recommend this cottage to anyone.

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.
