May 9, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location Disliked: Listing accuracy #### Mixed experience. Whilst the cottage is nicely decorated and well equipped we experienced issues. 1\. Parking almost impossible outside the cottage, had to park elsewhere in the village. Finding a space was a real problem. 2\. This is a terraced cottage and the walls are paper thin. We had just one night uninterrupted sleep. Neighbours were banging about from 1.30am until 3.30am. We could hear every word of their conversations. The noise from water pipes next door was really loud especially in the early hours. 3\. No mobile signal in the cottage but that can be said for much of Dunster. This should all be made clear before booking. Would not recommend. ##### Steve W. Stayed 7 nights in May 2025 Verified ### 10/10 Excellent #### Mark B. Jun 25, 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Great Stay in Dunster This an extremely well appointed cottage in a delightful village. The owner, Janet, is very attentive available and quick too respond to the smallest issue - and we had only one very minor thing to contact her about. On arrival, cake and tea were provided which was lovely after a long day of travel. The cottage has everything you could imagine for a comfortable stay basic food stuffs like tea, coffee, fresh milk salt pepper salad dressing, oils and so on - all there. Dunster itself is as we remember it from a previous visit. As Canadians we love the English village experience and this is quintessentially English to be sure. The pubs we remember have all suffered from COVID and some - the Stags Head - are closed despite the website saying it isn’t and all pubs require bookings for meals. So no more ambling about without a plan and popping into a pub for a beer and a ploughmans. A first world problem really but for a short stay one to keep in mind. Book your meals at the Luttrell Arms in advance is my tip. Thanks you Janet for another fantastic stay in your lovely cottage. ##### Mark B.
