The region

Wootton Courtenay is a small, peaceful village nestled between the Dunkery and Grabbist hills within Exmoor National Park, just four miles from both Dunster and Porlock.

The village sits in a sheltered valley with a favourable microclimate, surrounded by some of the finest walking country in the South West. Dunkery Beacon, the highest point on Exmoor at 519 metres, rises to the south-west and can be reached on foot directly from the village. The name Wootton means 'settlement by the wood,' recorded as 'Otone' in the Domesday Book, with 'Courtenay' added in the 13th century when the Courtenay family became lords of the manor.

At the heart of the village is the community-owned Villagers' Store and Post Office, saved from closure in 1991 by local residents who formed a cooperative to purchase the freehold. The shop stocks essentials, local honey, walking maps, and tourist information. The Grade I listed Church of All Saints dates from the 13th century and features an unusual gabled bell tower. A well-maintained village hall, built in 2001, hosts events throughout the year.

For a wider range of amenities, the medieval village of Dunster is approximately 4 miles away and has pubs, restaurants, cafes, and independent shops beneath its striking castle. Porlock, also 4 miles away, offers three pubs, grocery shops, a traditional butcher, chemist, and hardware store. Minehead, the nearest town at 4 miles, has supermarkets, petrol stations, and high street banks.

Für Gäste verfügt dieses Ferienhaus über einen Garten und eine Wäscherei. Die Rezeption ist rund um die Uhr geöffnet.
