Horner Cottage, Luccombe

Property Summary
Horner Cottage in Luccombe is a self-contained one bedroom holiday property in the rural village of Luccombe, nestled at the foot of Dunkery. Just 2 miles from the sea Horner Cottage is well suited to couples looking for a peaceful getaway.

Main Description
Horner Cottage in Luccombe is a delightful, one bed cottage in the heart of Exmoor National Park. Located on the edge of the village of Luccombe - a Domesday Book, National Trust village - it doesn't get much more picturesque than this!

The property is light, airy, well equipped and very comfortable with its own cottage garden and off street parking. Ideal for walkers, cyclists and nature lovers or anyone looking to relocate to the area.

The cottage was converted many years ago from what was once the coach house for the Manor. It's now two holiday cottages, Horner Cottage sleeps 2, and Luccombe Cottage (next door) sleeps up to 4 guests. Horner Cottage is accessed by passing Luccombe Cottage to reach the front door.

The entrance door opens up into a large hallway - plenty of room for coats and boots, etc. The spacious sitting room and kitchen within dining table are on either side of the hallway. Upstairs there is one large double bedroom with bathroom attached. The bathroom comprises bath with shower over, toilet and hand basin.

Sorry, no pets. This property used to accept 1 dog per booking, but after some bad experiences the owner regrets that pets are no longer welcome for new bookings.

The Manor House (where the owners live, and which is next to the cottages) was the original Rectory for the 14th century village church next door.

Please note that there are no food or drink items in the welcome Pack.


Indoor Description
The cottage is fitted with central heating throughout. There is also an 'electric wood-burner' in the sitting room. Heating, electricity and wifi are all included in the price of the accommodation.

Bed linen and towels are provided, but please bring your own beach towels if you wish to take them on day trips.

The kitchen is well-equipped with a broad range of cooking equipment, pots and pans as well as crockery/cutlery/glassware.

The water supply comes from a local natural spring.

Please note that there are no food or drink items in the welcome pack.

As with much of Exmoor, mobile phone reception in the cottage is very poor. However, if you turn ‘WiFi Calling’ on on your mobile you will be able to make/receive calls/texts over the cottage WiFi - you can often find this tab under Settings and then Phone, or alternatively contact your service provider and ask them to activate it.

Outdoor Description
Horner Cottage has a patio area directly beside the cottage which is gravelled. Both the front door and French doors from the kitchen open onto this area with picnic bench. The property also has a grass area with comfortable loungers. The garden is fenced around the perimeter.

Parking
There is parking for one car on the drive, just a short walk from the front door (approx 50 metres).

Pets Description
Sorry, no pets.
This property used to accept 1 dog per booking, but after some bad experiences the owner regrets that pets are no longer welcome for new bookings.

Restricted mobility
This has not been completed by the owner.

Exit in case of emergency
Please exit via the main front door and assemble in the guest parking area.

Christmas / New Year
Please note that we don't provide any decorations for Christmas bookings - so please bring your own if you want to add festive cheer!

There are usually Christmas services either at Luccombe Church or at Selworthy Church just across the valley.

The region
Nestling at the foot of Dunkery Beacon, the highest point on Exmoor, in the Vale of Porlock, Luccombe is a wonderfully picturesque National Trust village that is mentioned in the Domesday Book and was recently voted one of Englands prettiest villages! It's approximately 4 miles from Minehead and 2 miles from Porlock. Luccombe is an ideal spot for those looking for a quiet escape. Luccombe is sited approx 1.5 miles off the Minehead to Porlock road down a small country lane, which adds to its tranquillity. The nearest shops and pubs are in Porlock, a couple of miles away.
