Luccombe Cottage is a self-contained two bedroom holiday cottage nestled at the foot of Dunkery, in the rural National Trust village of Luccombe. Just 2 miles from the sea, Luccombe Cottage is well suited to couples looking for a peaceful getaway
Luccombe Cottage near Minehead has two bedrooms and is situated in the heart of Exmoor National Park, on the edge of the village of Luccombe - a beautiful National Trust village, that was also mentioned in the Domesday Book - it doesn't get much more picturesque than here! The cottage was converted from an outbuilding that was once the coach house for the Manor next door. It's now two holiday cottages, Horner Cottage (next door) sleeps 2, and Luccombe Cottage sleeps up to 4 guests. The front door opens into the modern, well-equipped kitchen. The spacious sitting room with dining table also has a door out to the patio area. Upstairs there are two double bedrooms, one with king-size bed and one double. The bathroom is also upstairs and comprises a bath with shower over, toilet and hand basin. The property is light, airy, well equipped and very comfortable with its own cottage garden and off street parking. Ideal for walkers, cyclists and nature lovers or anyone looking to relocate to the area. There is space for securely storing bicycles in the shed outside too. Horner Cottage is accessed by passing through Luccombe Cottage's outside area, but the two areas are divided by a fence and are both enclosed. The Manor House (where the owners live, and is next to the cottages) was the original Rectory for the 14th century village church next door. Please note that there are no food or drink items in the welcome pack. Sorry, no dogs

The region
+ MoreLuccombe nestling at the foot of Dunkery Beacon, the highest point on Exmoor, in the Vale of Porlock. It's a wonderfully picturesque National Trust village with thatched cottages and is mentioned in the Domesday Book. Approximately 4 miles from Minehead and 2 miles from Porlock, ...Luccombe is an ideal spot for those looking for a quiet escape. Luccombe is sited approx 1.5 miles off the Minehead to Porlock road down a small country lane, which adds to its tranquility. The nearest shops and pubs are in Porlock, a couple of miles away.
Here's just a handful of some of our favourite local eateries ... Cross Lane House, Allerford ... wonderful modern European, in a lovely setting with a really friendly greeting. Ziang’s … fantastic Asian Street Food at Porlock Weir Periwinkle Tea Rooms, Selworthy … fabulous tea rooms, lovely staff, delicious cakes and an amazing setting and view The Harbour Cafe, Porlock Weir ... great tea/coffee, cakes and light lunches Horner Tea Garden, Horner ... a lovely 1/2 hour walk from the cottages through the woods The Lutterell Arms, Dunster … traditional restaurant/pub
Luccombe is a small village located on the coast of Exmoor National Park in Somerset, England. Here are some things to do in and around Luccombe: Luccombe Beach - This secluded pebble beach is located just a short walk from the village and offers stunning views of the coast. Valley of Rocks - This dramatic valley is located just a few miles from Luccombe and features stunning rock formations and scenic walking trails. Lynton and Lynmouth Cliff Railway - This unique railway takes you on a scenic ride up the steep cliffs from Lynmouth to Lynton, offering stunning views of the coast and countryside. Watersmeet House - This National Trust property is located just a few miles from Luccombe and features beautiful gardens and scenic walking trails along the river. Exmoor Zoo - This popular zoo is located just a short drive from Luccombe and features a variety of animals, including big cats, monkeys, and birds of prey. Exmoor Owl and Hawk Centre - This center offers the opportunity to see and interact with a variety of birds of prey, including owls, hawks, and eagles. Exmoor Adventures - This outdoor adventure company offers a variety of activities, including kayaking, coasteering, and mountain biking. Cleeve Abbey - This historic abbey is located just a short drive from Luccombe and features beautiful ruins and gardens.

Dunster Castle - This historic castle is located just a few miles from Luccombe and features beautiful gardens and stunning views of the surrounding countryside.
There are a huge number of beautiful and varied walks in terms of length, difficulty, views and topography right from the cottage - the cottage has full directions for a number of walks and local walking maps to give you a hand in deciding where to wander. With over 750 miles of path marked 'Right of Way' in Exmoor (including a chunk of the Coastal Path) you're bound to find something to suit. Minehead beach is only 4 miles away, and Dunster only a little further if you are looking for some sand. In the other direction there are sandy beaches at Lynton & Lynmouth - the drive there alone is well worth it for the stunning scenery! If you're into bird watching, a walk from Bossington beach around to Porlock or Porlock Weir encompassing the pebble ridge and salt marsh is wonderful.
