Green Gates Cottage is exceptional.. All the comforts you could require.
Spotlessly clean, and very well equipped.
Watchet village is really friendly and welcoming, with good variety of pubs / eating places / shops,
and excellent links to surrounding area.

Fantastic cottage for a family break.. It was very well equipped and comfortable. The garden was very safe for children and dogs. The owner Mr Benson was very helpful before we went. Parking is limited but this was not a problem to us. The large family car fitted in the drive and the local car park was safe and very close. It was not expensive for a weekly rate of £25 for convenience and peace of mind. The location of the cottage is superb, directly opposite the rocky beach. We even had the best February weather for years which made this perfect. However, had it been cold the heating was efficient and generous. Thanks once again for another superb cottage. We hope to revisit Watchet sometime as we still have lots on our to-do list.

It was our 2nd visit to Greengates, we went this time last year.. It is close to 6 eating and drinking places. Watchet is on a Heritage Railway line and in summer months regular steam trains run. Greengates has everything for a family holiday or adult holiday. It's clean, comfortable beds and lounge furnishings and a well appointed kitchen. Might go again next year.

The cottage was comfortable and spacious, the kitchen had everything you would need and more.. There was hand soap in all the toilets and bathroom's which was a nice touch. The garden was was nice and private and well enclosed which is good when you have a dog with you. Watchet it self is beautiful with a pretty harbour and plenty of cafe's and pubs and takeaways. The walking in Exmoor was brilliant leading to lovely cafe's and unspoilt villages. Would definitely stay in this cottage again.

The owner contacted me in advance and provided really helpful information which I used to plan our short break.. The cottage was lovely even nicer than we anticipated and it was so warm and cozy during a very cold spell.
It was easy to walk down into Watchet and the locals were very friendly.
Great short break
