Cuain Cottage was nicer than I expected ,I don't think the listing does it Justice .Very clean .Lovely comfy beds .Black out curtains and blinds .Electric fake gas fire in lounge if feeling chilly and don't want to put heating on .Comfy sofas .
Lots of hangers!!!
Parking was super easy ,car park a few steps away ,always spaces ,weekly permit provided .No problem parking without blocking road for drop off and departure .Actually easier than squeezing into a dedicated space .
Great wi fi and phone signal .Netflix and echo Dot .
We set off smoke detectors ( because we would wouldn't we ) .To turn off/reset you push the button on the one at the foot of the stairs .Silences both and easier to reach than kitchen one .
No family bathroom ,compact shower and WC room .
Brilliant location -Watchet is compact and easy with everything you need ,a little old fashioned which we liked ..Great base for trips to Lynton ,walks on Quantock Hills ,Dunster Castle ( tho latter pricey ,tiring and lacks a lot of the informative guides that it used to have )
Market day on a Weds and again on first Sunday of month.
Eating out - we defaulted to kebab /pizza place on Swain St when we arrived tired and late .Didn't fancy the pubs and deterred from fish and chip shop by bad reviews from Co OP staff .
Cat's Whiskers ( 5 min walk ) is fabulous !!! As is Radio Museum next door to it - be prepared for more info than you can possibly want and a good 40 min visit .
The harbour front is a few steps away at the end of the cul-de-sac -we used to walk round and drink our coffee there .
Esplanade Lane is a cul-de-sac ,so no through traffic .
Turn left from Esplanade Lane for Co Op shop just round the corner and right for Deli with sandwiches ,coffee
,bacon sandwiches ,pasties ,smoothies .
Mineral Line walk on doorstep for lovely amble .Steam trains also on doorstep for days out .
We would definitely come again .
