The accommodation and Watchet all made a much needed break really enjoyable
Mr Chapman, October 2020
September 2020
Fabulous accommodation.. Clean, comfortable, cosy. Everything we needed for a wonderful holiday. Car parking space was a bit of a squeeze for a larger vehicle. Other than this an excellent choice for a relaxing week away.
Mrs Walker, September 2020
September 2020
Beautiful accommodation, very clean, modern and spacious.. Close to pubs, shops and the harbour. A lovely well kept garden with a comfortable seating area. So many lovely places to visit that are just a short drive away. Plus we were blessed with lovely weather the whole week. Perfect!!

Lovely cottage with beautiful garden to sit and have coffee/wine. Welcome pack on arrival was nice. Ideal to get to place's of interest, good for walks and bike rides. Watchet has a harbour, good choice of cafes and pubs. Would recommend.
Mr Dudok, August 2020
July 2020
The bakery is well equipped very clean bed super comfy fab pillows, a sweet garden to sit out and have breakfast or a drink at night.. Watchet is great pubs to eat in and a super market. Parking tested my reversing skills I have a 4x4 it's tight but can be done. I would definately go back and I will tell everyone to stay at the bakery as it made our holiday fantastic thank you.
Ms Keighley, July 2020
January 2020
The cottage was just perfect for the two of us.. The open plan layout downstairs was great for relaxing together, watching telly, doing a bit of work and the odd bit of cooking. The upstairs bedroom is airy and bright, but cosy at night. The location was ideal right in the centre of Watchet. Everything you could possibly need was close at hand, with many excellent pubs and cafes. We were unable to park in the designated parking space as it was too tight to manouvre into. We realised if we could park there, we wouldn’t be able to open the doors. We parked in the street and had no further problems. Overall this property was an outstanding place to spend a relaxed holiday.
Mrs Yates, January 2020

The Bakery cottage is very homely.. As soon as you walk through the door you feel at home straight away. You have everything that you can possibly need and more, for a 1 bedroom this cottage is surprisingly roomy. I cannot say anything negative. The owner has thought of everything! We had a brilliant stay and we will definitely look to book again! Thank you

The Bakery cottage really exceeded our expectations.. ....Absolutely beautiful. Spotlessly clean and fully equipped with everything you need. The decor and furnishing were superb. Watchet is a wonderful village and base to explore the surrounding area. We will definitely return.

Lovely cottage, 2nd visit which we enjoyed even more, coming back to a cosy , well cared for home from home.. Love the small touches of fresh flowers, welcome pack , makes such a difference . Great location for day trips . Owners friendly and good communication. Would highly recommend.
Mrs Sampson
February 2019
What a beautiful little cottage.. It felt like a real home from home and was spotless when we arrived. The owners have been very considerate, right down to the fresh flowers and provisions. The log burner was made up, ready to light when we arrived and as it was a freezing day, we lit it - the room felt very cosy !! The owners have also been very thoughtful and made up laminated sheets and folders with suggested scenic drives and walks - we did one of the drives and the directions were impeccable, even directing you to car parks at each village stop en route. We had 2 very nice meals at The Star Inn, a 5 minute walk down the road - Watchet is a small village, with a few shops/pubs and was perfect for our chilling weekend away. I can thoroughly recommend The Bakery and will be telling my friends all about it !!
Mr Read
January 2019

Excellent cottage accommodation.. The hosts have gone out of their way to make our stay as comfortable and enjoyable as possible, even providing a welcoming food hamper to get us started. Rooms are spacious, clean and comfortable. Furnishings and facilities were outstanding. Great to have a sunny outdoor space. Cottage is very close to the heart of Watchet giving easy access to shops, restaurants, walks and the steam train service but still in a quiet, private location with its own parking space.

The Bakery lived up to all our expectations.. A pretty cottage in a great location, the house is very well equipped with everything you need. A welcome pack, flowers , log burner, pretty little garden.....and pubs, shops, cafes within walking distance. The location is ideal for exploring the coastal path, Exmoor and the Quantocks. Chris & Christine are perfect hosts....Storm Emma arrived during our stay....we were completely snowed in (1.5 feet) and had to extend our stay a further 2 days. Chris was very understanding and accommodating....so no stress! A great and memorable stay....we intend to return.

The Bakery is set up perfectly for a very cosy and comfortable break in Watchet.. The cottage is very comfortable and set up with everything needed and Watchet has plenty of good pubs and eating places along with great walks and the steam railway, a great place for a break.
Mr Thomas
December 2017
What an amazing property! This cosy cottage has everything you need and the owners have thought about everything too. It's well situated for a relaxing break, very close to major cities and attractions but far enough to feel remote. With the beach just a few minutes walk, and a wood burning stove to return to, it made for an excellent winter retreat. The property is decorated and furnished to a very high standard with comfortable sofas, an excellent king sized bed, superb bathroom, and a well equipped kitchen.
Mr Kimber

Cottage was faultless attention to detail exceptional
Mr Chinnery

Mrs Hibbs
August 2017
The Bakery really is 5 star accommodation.. Modern, well appointed and with everything you could possibly need. The living room/kitchen is spacious, with a comfortable sofa and large screen TV. A great selection of Dvd's too. The kitchen is well fitted, no compromise for self caterers. Two French doors open onto a lovely garden with patio and seating. The bedroom is large and airy, with a king sized comfy bed and loads of storage. The well fitted bathroom with velux roof window, decent over bath shower and towel rail, is perfect. Plenty of soft towels. The owners seemed to have thought of everything for a trouble free, relaxing holiday. A welcome pack with eggs, milk, orange juice and biscuits, awaits on arrival. There is tea and coffee too. Plenty of books to read and films to watch too. Even seed for the visiting birds is provided. Thank you Mr and Mrs Baker, we loved our stay.

This property is amongst the best we have ever stayed in.. Spotlessly clean, spacious and even though within minutes of the harbour, very peaceful. The garden was private and a lovely place to relax at the end of a day. The owners have thought of everything and should be congratulated on their attention to detail. We will definitely return.

It was beautiful, well thought out accommodation. The garden was a delight to sit in and what a sun-trap. It was lovely roomy, clean and attractive. Absolutely faultless.
Mr Graves
May 2015
The Bakery was perfect in every way; well decorated, furnished, and equipped, and with the bonus of a bath which is often not available in small two person properties. Also we selected this cottage as it is close to the steam railway which for us gives the chance for a nostalgic train ride. Good walks close by too, and nearby shops, pubs and places to eat.
Mr Palin
April 2015
Cottage, was as good if not better than any we have stayed in over many years, ideal location for moving around this area of Somerset and North Devon, and evening walks. Cottage has everything you require for a holiday and to a much higher standard than the norm.

Super clean property in a great location for touring the area or for a quiet break. Pubs, fish chip shop, curry house, Chinese, 3 cafes a small co-op store were all within 5 minutes walk in the old fashioned seaside town with interesting history. Ordnance Survey maps guide books provided were a great touch that made our unplanned trip a real pleasure.
Mrs Morris

Mr Burston

The cottage was beautiful, light and airy. We could have happily lived there. There were lovely places nearby to visit. The weather was so good we never had need to use the wood burning stove. A lot of careful thought had gone into kitting the cottage out.
Mr Mrs Chapman

Mrs Payne

Mrs Sheridan
July 2014
The Bakery was a beautiful house. Your description and four ticks matched it perfectly. The garden was very pretty and as the weather was glorious we sat in it for most of the week. It had the sun all day long. The house was very clean and comfortable with an enormous bedroom. The kitchen had everything except a washing machine. It was only a couple of minutes walk to the shops and marina.
