  • This is Dunster Castle, near Minehead in North Somerset. This is the view you get as you approach, and I just think it's such a beautiful sight, rising up out of the trees. There's an ancient castle, plus a more modern (as in 17th century modern) Manor House. The last residents gave it to the National Trust to look after. Dunster Village is also very pretty and worth a little wander through.

Summer 24'

Lovely property set in idyllic countryside. It was a great base to visit Dunster, Minehead, Lynton and Lynmouth, Tarr Steps, Watersmeet and go walking on Exmoor. It really was a great 5 days away.

We really enjoyed our stay at Hedgehog Cottage, the location was right for us. The booking agent and owner were very helpful as we had been let down the day before on another cottage we had booked.

Half term break

Our 2nd time to hedgehog cottage and a delight as before. A comfortable, warm and well appointed cottage in an idyllic spot. Welcoming gifts of eggs, milk and cake, such a kind and thoughtful touch. Fran is such a wonderful host, thank you for a lovely relaxing stay.

Hedgehog Cottage was lovely. It was spotlessly clean with modern fittings and we felt very safe in these uncertain virus times. The cottage is in a good rural location for exploring Exmoor. It was also nice to meet the owner who was cutting the grass when we arrived. Our dog enjoyed his holiday too!

The location is fab if you want to be "in the sticks" away from it all! And although there are other cottages on site, it was very private and quiet and we were unaware of anyone else. Fran was extremely conscientious to ensure everything was as good as it could be. Such a special place, truly. Loved it!

The cottage was very cosy, had everything we required and was immaculately clean. The garden was very safe for our dog. The location is ideal for exploring Exmoor nowhere seems very far away. Our dog enjoyed running around Dunster beach, where there are no restrictions for dogs, and at low tide there are huge expanses of hard sand. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay.

Cosy country cottage in a quiet position but only 3 minutes by car from a well stocked village store

Cosy country cottage in a quiet position but only 3 minutes by car from a well stocked village store. Central heating a real bonus. Well equipped even though somethings were removed for Covid. Ideal for our dog who enjoyed walks in the woodland behind the cottage.

Half term haven

Hedgehog cottage was a home away from home, clean, cosy, warm, light, well appointed and welcoming. Lovely wood burner, plenty of hot water and wonderful fluffy towels, perfect when the weather was unfortunately rather wet! A thoughtful welcome pack included fresh local eggs, milk and even ground coffee and hot chocolate, simply perfect. Thank you for making our half term week in Exmoor unforgettable.
