Tucked away in the picturesque harbour town of Watchet, in Somerset, is this quaint, mid-terrace cottage, 7 Severn Terrace. Set over two floors and offering sea views across rooftops, this charming retreat is an ideal choice for families and friends alike, with easy access to the stunning Quantock Hills AONB. On arrival at the cottage, park at the rear of the property in the off road parking spaces and enter the property through the charming courtyard into the kitchen. Wander through to the contemporary kitchen, amply–equipped with all the essentials for a short break, including an electric oven and gas hob, microwave, fridge/freezer and even a washing machine, so you won’t have to pack your whole wardrobe. Serve the fruits of your labour in the separate dining room, toasting to a much-needed break with your nearest and dearest. Unwind in the lounge, offering plush seating with a TV and woodburning stove, you’ll have everything for a cosy night in! As the evening draws to a close, venture upstairs and discover the bedrooms; the master includes a king-size bed with feature fireplace, whilst the second room offers a twin, perfect for the little ones. The sleek bathroom rounds off the interior, boasting a gorgeous freestanding bath and walk-in shower cubicle, so you can best decide how to prepare for the day. Outside there is the charming courtyard and enclosed raised rear garden where you can listen to the puffing of the steam train whilst looking across the roof tops to the sea. When you’re ready to explore, the bustling town of Watchet is filled with independent shops, pubs, cafés, restaurants, try your look hunting at Whatchet nationally renowned fossil beach, plus there’s a whole of attractions from the picturesque marina to the museum and a short distance from the Steam Railway, taking visitors through beautiful countryside and coast.

Comfortable lounge, large TV with all streaming channels, dining room, very smart range cooker and a king size bed in the master bedroom with a view of the Bristol Channel. Good walking from the cottage east and west along the coast path and Cleeve Abbey and Dunster Castle close by. We had a great holiday and will almost certainly visit again.
Debra
Very overgrown grass not an area you would want to spend time in and neither was the back courtyard, in need of wall repainting and looking cared for. Not very comfortable seating downstairs but bedroom pleasant with large comfortable bed. Bathroom good size the shower was lovely.
Kirk
Only comments regarding the property are that the gardens were disappointing and not really suitable for dogs and the vehicular access is very limited with no turning space.
