We loved everything about Little Haven, it had so much character, was clean and comfortable and had a garden that I dream of having similar to one day! There were many wonderful walks from the doorstep and beaches just a short journey away. Perfect!

An upstairs toilet would be good

incredibly efficient heating. Lovely little garden The standard of cleanliness was good, but not outstanding. The bathroom was a little cold.

My husband and I travelled from Boston, USA to come to the glorious county of Somerset and walk the moors, little lanes, woods, pubs, and villages of Exmoor. After a lifetime of reading Thomas Hardy, the Bronte sisters, and of course, R.D. Blackmore's 'Lorna Doone,' it was a dream fulfilled for me. This little thatched roof cottage has been the perfect place for me to feel as if I'm back in time. The grounds and garden are so peaceful and tranquil. Little Staunton lane was within walking distance (we didn't have a car) to Alcombe where right down the street we could get great food and conversation every time we were there. I've never met such friendly and intelligent people as the people of Somerset County! We were able to walk to Dunster and Minehead, but must give a shout out to Mark from Ava Cab Co, who took us out to Lynton/Lynmouth, Withypool (where we had lunch at The Royal Oak Inn where Dwight Eisenhower stayed after D-Day and Blackmore wrote "Lorna Doone"), the Tarr Steps, and the much photographed Allerford packhorse bridge. Jenny next door is the loveliest woman who really enjoys meeting all the neighbours who come and go. Do make an effort to visit her if she doesn't come by with a bouquet of flowers first to greet you! Also want to give a shout out to the housekeeper who came out to dry our clothes, as the listing shows the cottage has a dryer and the directions left in the appliance booklet also gave instructions on how to use it, but turns out there isn't one, so we ended up with a load of wet clothes! Thanks, Emma, for coordinating the drying. My only suggestions would be to dust a bit better and get rid of all the cobwebs in the little corners and windows. Also, two small things that make life easier is to put a little towel rack by the upstairs bedroom sink, and get one of those wire shelves for the shower that hook over it to put soaps and shampoos in. Otherwise, it was perfect!

A lovely cottage and garden, very peaceful . Cottage was on a bit of hillside that kept us fit with daily walks also there are a few steps inside the cottage that could cause problems for anyone with mobility problems. All in all a lovely break in a nice peaceful location.

Lovely location - but I already knew how beautiful West Somerset and Devon was going to be. The property is only a couple of miles from Dunster castle and village so I knew the location was going to be good! It is not often that you stay at a location on holiday and wish you could live there but I can honestly say that I felt that about Little Haven cottage - the clue's in the name! Nothing

Nice location and friendly neighborhood. Within easy walking distance to Minehead. The toilet had a clearance problem.

The location and cottage itself are amazing.... we absolutely loved the place and the garden is majestic.... so many adventures..... hope to be back soon 0) recycling information

The cottage was idyllic and so peaceful, being in the perfect place for walks straight out of the door into the woods of Exmoora very short drive to the beach. It was well equipped and full of character with a lovely sheltered enclosed garden which was safe to let our Jack Russell roam around in. It would have been useful to have a selection of bedding as the duvets were rather warm for the unseasonably warm April we had when visiting.

Lovely cottage with garden. Looks even better in real life than the pictures. The location is great for dog walking. We had a great time. Would love to return another time.

We loved our time in the thatched cottage! It was an adorable place to stay with everything we needed including good wifi to make it a great getaway.

Beautiful cottage, well furnished with an excellent landscaped garden. Kitchen well resourced with good quality appliances. Garden maintenance poor: it took 4 days for the gardner to visit after early contact with agents.) Cleaning was of a below average standard and certainly not of expected quality. Disappointing welcome package (1pint milk and 1 pkt cheap biscuits) and watered down soaps in old dirty dispensers were not a welcome find. A whole day of a planned power cut (0900-1600) was not communicated to us in advance. A lack of a local contact not helpful and concerns over the immediacy of a visit in an emergency with only a London contact worrying. The Agents customer focus not up to standard compared to owner's focus by this company (read owner's reviews). After many previous visits we were upset to note the declining standards and fear for the future of Little Haven.

Everything about Little Haven and the surrounding area is special. The cottage is cosy and the owners have thought of everything you might need. Nothing I can think of.
