Summary
Customers enjoyed their stay at the cottage, highlighting its comfort, cleanliness, and welcoming atmosphere. The location is praised for its proximity to the beach and local amenities. However, the unheated bathroom and slow-draining plugs were noted as downsides. Overall, a recommendable and lovely property.
The property
Nestled in the coastal village of Kilve, surrounded by the glorious Quantock hills, is this charming 17th Century thatched cottage; set a 15 minute walk from the stunning fossil coast, perfect for both small families or a romantic getaway for two.
Park up outside the enchanting cottage and easily manoeuvre your belongings inside. Enter through the stable door to discover the wonderful sitting room, full of traditionally features. The beamed ceilings and walls, exposed stone fireplace with an old bread oven and decorative wood-burning stove, make this rustic living area the perfect place to curl up on the sofa in front of the TV.
The quirky layout of this old cottage has been carefully thought out to provide a well equipped kitchen-diner, with a drop leaf table for more space when it's not in use; and the underfloor heating will keep you toasty as you prepare a hearty breakfast in the morning.
The bathroom is on the ground floor; and the utility area provides a handy washing machine to refresh your wardrobe throughout your holiday.
Find the stairs, hidden behind a door, to the double and single bedroom, also full of character with beamed & sloping ceilings.
On the ground-floor, gain access to the patio garden through the back door; an idyllic space in warmer months to enjoy a meal around the table, alfresco-style in the tranquility of the quaint village.
To explore the area, lace up your walking boots and embark on a fantastic nature walk around the scenic landscape of the Quantock Hills Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty, or head to Jurassic Coast for spectacular views.
The village Pub, serving food has excellent reviews. The nearest supermarket is in Williton.
A little further afield rests the coastal port of Watchet and the larger village of Williton, with more facilities; and they are both on the West Somerset Railway, where visitors can enjoy a a unique steam train experience.
If you are looking for a tranquil retreat near a stunning coastline then 1 Old Thatch is the idyllic base.
