Valley Cottage, nestled in the picturesque village of Withypool within Exmoor National Park, serves as an ideal retreat for those seeking a tranquil rural getaway.

The interior is rich with original features and traditional decor, creating a warm and inviting atmosphere. The cottage accommodates up to eight guests in five bedrooms, making it suitable for families or groups looking for a cozy escape.
The layout of Valley Cottage is thoughtfully designed for flexibility and comfort. On the ground floor, guests will find a dining room, a fully equipped kitchen, and a separate living room furnished with plush sofas and armchairs, perfect for family gatherings.

The main family bathroom, also located on this floor, includes a bath with a shower attachment, along with an additional ground floor WC for guests' convenience.
Outside, the cottage boasts a garden equipped with patio furniture, allowing guests to enjoy al fresco dining while soaking in the serene surroundings. For parking, there is a private off-road space for two cars across the road, with additional free on-street parking available. The village of Withypool offers essential amenities, including a well-stocked shop, popular tea rooms, and a local pub, all within walking distance. Nature enthusiasts will appreciate the delightful walking trails that begin right at the village, while the coastal towns of Minehead and Porlock are easily accessible by car, expanding the options for exploration.
Visitors to Valley Cottage can also enjoy nearby attractions such as Dunster, known for its stunning castle maintained by the National Trust, as well as cultural highlights like the Dunster Dolls Museum and Dovery Manor Museum. The area is rich in activities, including North Devon Hawk Walks and Greencombe Gardens, making it an ideal location for both relaxation and adventure. It’s important to note that the cottage accommodates a maximum of six adults per booking and is pet-friendly, welcoming children of all ages. With its charming features and prime location, Valley Cottage promises a memorable escape for all who visit.
