A delightful little cottage. Beautifully appointed, comfortable, warm and cosy. En-suite shower rooms rather small but clean and nicely designed. Beautiful setting, though rather narrow lanes, but no problem. Dunster nearby and a really excellent Sunday lunch at the Kings Head, Luxborough. A very relaxing and enjoyable stay.

The Granary Cottage was beautifully clean and very well equipped. The owners had clearly taken all the appropriate Covid protections and the provision of basic essentials, (washing up liquid, toilet rolls etc) was very helpful. I would certainly recommend this cottage for a very peaceful, restful break.

The cottage is lovely and in a beautiful setting. There are some lovely walks around the cottage but the terrain is steep and not accessible to everyone. The setting is quite remote and you have to drive to everything, including the local pub. The Royal Oak in Luxborough is well worth a visit but remember to book in advance.

We were very lucky with the weather during our short break. The cottage is beautiful, set in a wonderful location. One piece of advice, while the Royal Oak pub is a short distance on the map, it does involve several steep climbs, and after dark, it is very dark, so walking is not as straight forward as may at first appear, and takes longer than 20 minutes. That said it didn't spoil our time, and hats off to Annette for a lovey location and property

The Granary provided a cozy and very comfortable base for an Autumn short stay. It is thoughtfully furnished and comprehensively equipped and the design of the interior deserves praise for the use of the space available. It is situated in a delightful setting and in good weather I have no doubt that there is much enjoyable walking to be experienced from the door. The Royal Oak offered excellent fare for the option of eating out, although only the young and adventurous would want to attempt the journey on foot on dark nights in inclement weather. Overall a most enjoyable experience

Great location - tucked away from the usual honeypot destinations but only a short drive from them if that's what you want. Luxborough is well positioned in the peaceful farmland nestling between Exmoor and the Quantock hills. Great walking from the front door - Dunster, Timberscombe and Roadwater are all within easy reach and Exmoor itself (e.g. Dunkery Hill) can also be made if you want a longer expedition. The cottage is very pleasant to stay in and very well equipped so no need to be going out for meals all the time. A very good place to be if the weather isn't encouraging outdoor activities. Horse owner-riders may be particularly interested to stay here as there are stables and paddocks on the farm but obviously this would be by separate arrangement with the owner.

The cottage is lovely and perfect for a couple. Spotlessly clean, and has everything you'll need for a comfortable stay (welcoming pieces of cake on our arrival were lovely). Located in a beautiful, very quiet and rural area. Quality of the roads is good, however some of them are quite narrow so just drive carefully and not too fast (lots of pheasants may appear suddenly in front of your car). There are lots of walks around the cottage, and if you'll drive a little bit further (short drive) you'll find even more, including sea paths, paths around Wimbleball lake, etc - so the location of this cottage is a perfect point to explore Exmoor. The Royal Oak in Luxborough is just a mile away and serves very tasty food - we didn't book in advance. We loved our stay here and would definitely recommend this cottage.

Tucked away from the road and any other manmade noise (apart from the very occasional tractor) and light, we loved the natural peace and quiet (and dark skies) here. The kitchen is fantastically (and expensively - Bosch everything) well-equipped and the welcome-gifts of eggs from the nearby hens and excellent fruit cake were a nice touch. The rooms are very comfortable and similarly well-equipped. Great walking is right on the doorstep and some of Somerset's and Exmoor's towns, beaches and other attractions just a short drive away. The village pub is 4 minutes by car or a 20 minute walk better done in the daytime and under new ownership serving excellent food ... the subject of another review. Best of all was the nightly aerobatic display by bats at dusk - just amazing! We loved our stay here.

Idyllic rural location - well placed for exploring Exmoor and North Devon

We had a wonderful stay at this comfortable and clean cottage on a working farm. The location was up a charming rural road - we were in the country but did not feel isolated. The view from the bedroom window was stunning, the setting and the sounds of the countryside- birds, lambs and hens - set us in the perfect mood to relax 😊

Delightful Get Away

The Granary is a lovely place to stay with everything you need. It was lovely to have some tea, coffee, milk, eggs and cake !! waiting for us (the cake was delicious) The setting is stunning and so peaceful. Even though it's a working farm it's quiet and very well kept. At night all you can hear are the owls hooting and if your're lucky you will see the bats flying around. You really feel you're in the middle of no where but it's only 15 mins drive to Minehead. The only downside to staying here are the roads, they are all single track but you soon get used to them and just take your time. I highly recommend a stay at The Granary and would be happy to go back. Thank you for our lovely stay Donna & John Knight
