Excellent property in great location
We had a lovely break here with our friends - it really is in a wonderful location with a great walk literally on the doorstep. The house is quite eccentrically laid out as is the garden - and I loved it because of this. Fascinating little nooks and crannies, yet very homely.

Moonfleat, the Quantock Hills.
Extremely quaint higgledy-piggledy cottage, the last house on the hill, with terraces leading up to an orchard and on to a paddock with 2 very friendly horses. You can see Minehead over rolling countryside to the right and the lights twinkling from Wales across the channel. Fabulous sunsets! 'Out' out we enjoyed Minehead, Taunton, Blue Anchor, Watchet, Dunster. Thoroughly enjoyable stay at an incredibly reasonable price.

Situated in a quiet lane, very peaceful. The parking at the side of the cottage is tight but we managed to get our Peugeot 2008 in. Nothing negative to say about our stay.

Lovely quirky cottage
We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Moonfleet cottage and were sad to be leaving. The property was very clean and everything we needed was there - a well stocked kitchen, a good selection of DVDs and games, toilet rolls, soap etc along with some milk, pastries, tea and coffee. The cottage is full of character - low doorways, huge fireplace, steep staircase etc which we loved! The area is also fab, lots of places to visit nearby, a walkers paradise (we took our dogs) and a local pub within walking distance that serves the best pizza! We hope to return at some point soon.

lovely location.
Well equipped cottage in lovely location. Bathroom has slightly dirty tiles and some mould which is a shame but otherwise good. Lovely garden with great view. Had to get the housekeeper to come out to the property because we couldn't open the front door .Very stiff. she did arrive in half an hour but not ideal after a five hour drive.

A very pleasant cottage
We spent a few days in Moonfleet Cottage and enjoyed every minute of it. We felt very welcomed and really appreciated the quietness of the place. The cottage itself is well equipped, clean and cosy. It is also really well situated, near Dunster Castle, Cleeve Abbey and several coastal paths. We shall certainly come back again.

Lovely relaxing break
Lovely area. Cottage bigger than expected. Very quirky, which we love. Well equipped. My hubby managed to park the car in the carport just about. Very warm especially with the log burner.

Lovely little character cottage!
Lovely stay at Moonfleat on a little Lane which took you straight up to the Quantocks with beautiful, stunning scenery. Also close to the coastal walks. Couldn't have been any better and we all loved it. Only wish we could have stayed longer. Comfy beds, lovely little inglenook in the front room and very well equipped kitchen. Home from home. We'll be talking about our stay for a long, long time! 😊

Antik, aber super konfortabel
Jahrhunderte altes Cottage, aber topp und technisch auf aktuellem Stand. (Es gibt wohl ausgezeichnetes WLAN, die Treppe: da haben wir in kleinen holländischen Hotels schon schlimmere Stiegen gesehen...) . Klar, uralte Archtektur: man kann sich an 3 Stellen den Kopf stoßen, an mehreren Stellen gibt es Stufen. Wir haben uns täglich gefragt: Wo mag der Elektriker denn heute die Schalter versteckt haben?" ;-) Einen Minuspunkt gab es: die Kommunikation mit der Eigentümerin. Trotz e-mails bis zur Abfahrt keine Angaben über die Schlüsselübergabe. Vor Ort dann langes, teures Telefongespräch mit ihr in der Schweiz (ist kein Euro-1-Roaming-Land). Sie habe mir morgens eine Mail mit allen Infos geschickt. ??? wer checkt denn auf einer 11 Stunden-Reise durch 4 Länder seine Mails auf einem Prepaid-Phone? Dann Schlüsselsafe gefunden - klemmte durch Umwelteiflüsse. Endlich! Und dann war wirklich alles gut. Ansonsten wirklich empfehlenswert. Wunderbare Lage und Landschaft. Vielen Dank für die Erfrischungen im Kühlschrank ;-)

Typisch englisches Cottage in toller Umgebung
Wir haben den Urlaub in diesem typisch englischen Cottage sehr genossen. Die Gegend ist super, prima Ausgangspunkt für Ausflüge in die nähere Umgebung. Der Ausblick vom oberen Garten bei Sonnenuntergang ist nicht zu toppen. Mit 4 Erwachsenen ist das Haus ausreichend groß und die Ausstattung vollständig. Leider sind die Türen niedriger als Zuhause ;-) mit meinen 2m habe ich mir oft den Kopf gestoßen. Die Treppe ist auch sehr eng, für ältere evtl. gehbehinderte Personen leider nicht zu empfehlen. Sehr einfache und persönliche Kommunikation mit der Vermieterin. Parken ist etwas trickreich. Ein Mini-Van (Seat-Alhambra) paßt definitiv nicht in die Garage, parken ca. 150m weiter unten an der Kreuzung. Vor der Tür ist es zu eng. Für Urlauber die den typische Charme eines alten Cottage zu schätzen wissen kann ich das sehr Haus empfehlen. Liebevoll eingerichtet aber nicht überladen. Leichte Abstriche im Komfort, aber vollständig.

un cottage bien situé mais des manques importants
Une communication ,avant notre arrivée,très agréable. Toutefois une réelle déception à notre arrivée en ce qui concerne surtout la propreté ( de la vaisselle, des murs carrelés et des placards dela cuisine).Nous avons été obligés de tout relaver. La literie est également à revoir ( poils d'animaux sur le linge de lit ). Les chambres ne sont pas indépendantes , très gênant pour l'intimité, mais la vue ,au loin, de la mer est très agréable. En ce qui concerne l'extérieur( non clos pour les animaux) il n'est pas entretenu et qui n'a aucune fleur sauf celles des mauvaises herbes, nous avons été obligés de nettoyer le mobilier de jardin très sale pour profiter de la petite terrasse extérieure . Le garage ouvert qui donne sur une rue très passante est très sale et dangereux. Ce cottage bien situé dans la région, bien que directement en bordure de route, a un fort potentiel si il était mieux entretenu car il permet de découvrir de nombreux lieux touristiques.
