Moonfleat is a 300 year old 2 bedroom cottage with panoramic views of Exmoor providing self-catering accommodation. With the Coleridge Way passing right by the front door, guests are able to step right out into the wild countryside of the Quantock Hills. Nestled in an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty with views across the Bristol Channel to South Wales, Moonfleat has the traditional comforts of a cosy cottage lounge with woodburner and exposed wooden beams. The 2 upstairs bedrooms are bright and carpeted, and the property benefits from a spacious kitchen and rear patio area for al fresco dining. The cottage also has a private garage. There is also a sofa bed available on the ground floor. The nearby Windmill Pub is on the edge of West Quantoxhead village at just 5 minutes’ walk. A 30-minute drive to the east is the centre of the Exmoor National Park and the popular seaside town of Weston-Super-Mare is an hour’s drive away.

Couples particularly like the location — they rated it 9.7 for a two-person trip.

    Cosy cottage in a beautiful spot. Well equipped with everything we needed. The walks around the cottage are worth doing to see the views from the top of the hill. The garden was enjoyed by us all we even managed to lock ourselves out of the house...

Moonfleat holds a lot of sentimental memories being once my family home. I orginally came down to Somerset as loved the area so much. The riding Country appealed to me & once l rode down from Staple Plain passing this quant Cottage & within a few weeks it was my family home!!
Am a very Nature friendly person
I think we have all the same thing in common, dog walkers or people retiring to get away from The Rat Race!
