Located in a peaceful setting surrounded by open fields, woodland and a stream, this property is a walker’s paradise. Set out on foot for a paddle in the stream or stroll up onto the moor, famous for its native ponies and breath-taking scenery. Exmoor National Park backs onto the Somerset coastline, taking in the pretty towns of Porlock, Lynton and Lynmouth, home to popular pubs, galleries and boutiques and often referred to as “Little Switzerland”. A little further afield, the sandy beaches of Minehead and Woolacombe are well worth a visit, especially when the weather is good.

Inside, this charming cottage has been extended and modernised to provide spacious, bright and homely accommodation.

This is a homely room with a large oriental rug, comfortable sofas, occasional lighting, another fully-stocked bookcase and TV/DVD. This property offers two elegant and spacious bedrooms, one double with en-suite bathroom and one twin, which can be made into a king-size on request. There is also a modern bathroom with bath.

Outside, a sunny patio area with BBQ and garden furniture offers fantastic views of the open countryside beyond. Friendly and well behaved dogs are welcome, the large enclosed garden beyond is ideal for four-legged friends and backs onto a fenced bridge and stream.

We loved Little Oak and its incredible setting! It is so cozy, warm and well equipped. You will never find a more stunning, peaceful and relaxing location. The owners are lovely and made us feel so at home. The only negative for our family was that the bedroom doors upstairs could not be closed (doors too big for the hole!) and an absence of locks Read moreon the bathroom doors, which we feel are basics in any house. Other than that, highly recommended for a very special holiday. Hide

Without a doubt the best cottage we have ever rented. In a very secluded location with all the comforts of home. As well as being a lovely cosy cottage it also has a very large enclosed garden which our dog loved. We honestly wouldn't change one thing about this cottage and we loved it so much that we will be returning again next year.
