About Gatekeeper's Cottage

Gatekeeper's Cottage is a delightful, single-storey cottage resting near Minehead, Somerset. This pet-friendly property boasts a hot tub, and barbecue - with off-road parking for two cars, Gatekeeper's Cottage is perfect for a family or small group looking to have an immense rural getaway.

Navigate your way to the sitting room and have the pick of the armchairs to settle in while a film on the Smart TV entertains. When you find the courage to move from your relaxing spot, the kitchen will be calling your name.

Using the electric oven, gas hob, microwave, and air fryer, cook up something delicious for everyone. In the warmer months, step outside and use the barbecue for some classic summer food.

Once that’s been devoured, let the sun carry on beaming down at you, but in the bubbles of the hot tub. When evening approaches, choose from a super-king-size, twin, or bunk bed (accessible from the main bedroom) to get your head down for some rest.

In the morning, take in the welcoming sunshine with an outside coffee, thanks to the coffee maker. Then prepare for the day with either a soothing soak in the bath or a relaxing rinse in the en-suite shower.

For a lovely rural retreat, book a stay at Gatekeeper's Cottage. Note: This property can be booked with ref 1171396, together sleeping 30 people.
