Bijou bungalow on the doorstep of Exmoor

Our bijou bungalow is situated in the heart of the village of Washford, hosted by West Somerset Breaks. Nestled between Exmoor and the Quantock Hills it’s the ideal base to explore the surrounding beauty spots. It also serves as the perfect spot for four legged friends and those who love the great outdoors with access to our privately owned fields accessed via the rear of the cottage. The field is a gateway to footpaths straight on to Exmoor National Park. The property is small but perfectly formed for a couple of solo traveller. With a bathroom with a bath and electric shower, a double bedroom, a living/ dining space and a well equipped kitchen it has everything you need to become the perfect base for exploring the area. It also serves as the perfect spot for four legged friends and those who love the great outdoors with access to our privately owned five acre field accessed via the rear of the cottage. The field is a gateway to footpaths straight on to Exmoor National Park. To give our guests the best possible experience we've started writing a blog and documenting our reviews and recommendations in the local area. You can find out more by visiting westsomerset.breaks on Insta-gram. Parking is directly outside the backdoor for easy access. The A39 is a short walk away so the bus stop is easily accessed as is the Steam Railway in the village which stops at many of the local towns and villages that are a must for exploring during your stay! The bungalow is perfectly placed to walk to many of the area’s top visitor attractions including the West Somerset Steam Railway and Washford Railway Museum, English Heritage site; Cleeve Abbey, Torre Cider Farm and the 19th century Washford to Watchet mineral line. There are also two highly rated pubs in the village and a local Post Office/ shop directly opposite the bungalow on the other side of the A39. The property benefits from off road parking with access to a backdoor straight in to the bunaglow. It's located next to the A39 so public transport is easily accessible within a minutes walk away. Buses run regularly to the seaside town of Minehead and towards the County town of Taunton where a well connected train station runs trains from all across the country. In a car you can access some of the most beautiful places on Exmoor within minutes, while Minehead is just seven miles away and the traditional harbour town of Watchet, just three miles. The off road parking is to the rear of the property, in a courtyard parking area directly off of the main road. If you'd prefer not to use this area there is on street parking freely available outside the front of the property (outside the hairdressers). The property is near to the A39 road and therefore there may be some element of road noise in the outdoor spaces, but the property itself is set back from the road on Abbey Road so inside is much quieter.
