There are several streets of shops in Dulverton including a butcher, Post Office, fish & chip shop, greengrocer, late-opening supermarket, art gallery, hairdressers, guns and fishing tackle shop.

This was a lovely house with fantastic views from the 1st floor living room and balcony. It was easy walking distance to Dulverton and we loved seeing the pheasants in the road and the garden. The house was very well equipped and well situated for beautiful walks on Exmoor.

The house is very clean and tidy, with plenty of kitchen utensils, glasses, cups etc. The facilities, including no fewer than 3 toilets and washbasins, as well as 2 showers and a bath, were first class. It is furnished to a high standard, allowing for a comfortable stay. The view from the lounge window is really stunning. This is a house we will certainly return to, should the opportunity arise.

Cottage is in a great position with easy access to many of Exmoors places of interest. My only complaint was the fact that on arrival there was no milk and only 2 tea bags despite this being stated as available in the details on the website. After a 6 hour drive this did not get the holiday of to a good start . This apart we had a very relaxing and enjoyable week in Dulverton.

Balcony door problem
Thoroughly enjoyed our stay & all was excellent but balcony doors jammed leaving small gap with guest having to get back in lounge through window . Contacted help which meant young man arrived promptly & managed to close door but this prevented the use of the balcony during our stay. Single bed duvet rather thick & heavy, otherwise all good.
