We had a lovely stay at Bournstream cottage. The gardens are beautiful in summer and the heated swimming pool was a big bonus for us. The cottage is in a great location to enjoy the surrounding area where there is a lot to do with some great local pubs nearby.The facilities are great, with everything we could possibly need and Sue literally couldn’t do anything more to make us feel welcome. Thank you!

Wonderful place and lovely hosts.
Wonderful place and lovely hosts. Two good sized bedrooms, both with en suite bathrooms. A very good well equipped kitchen. Plus a nice sized lounge.The children loved the four poster bed. All beds comfortable and cozy.Location good, not far from Minehead for shops, sea, and amusements. Dunters and Exmoor just down the road. Lovely locations. Would definitely return.

We had a very nice stay at Bournstream.
We had a very nice stay at Bournstream..Everything was catered for in the cottage.Hosts were welcoming. Definitely recommend.
Wonderful little cottage. Don't be put off by the fact it is on the A39 as this doesn't affect you in any way. Everything is supplied. Heaters work well and the outdoor space is perfect with access to the farm land for walks. If you are up early enough you can see the racehorses on the gallops
Very impressed with the cottage&location,Set in a peaceful setting in the middle of the countryside,easy acess to Mineheadτnton,The owners were very friendly&made us feel very welcome,
