Reviews

Lane Cottage is a perfect Exmoor bolthole, tucked into a little square in the centre of the lovely market town of Dulverton.

The cottage is really cosy, with a multi-burner in the huge inglenook fireplace at its heart and a cheerful galley-style kitchen leading to a very private enclosed patio at the rear. The spacious double bedroom and the shower-room look out over an oasis of hidden gardens.

This semi-detached period cottage is full of character, with traditional features, including low beams and lintels and steep cottage stairs.

The little town has a great choice of shops, cafes and restaurants and there is a lovely picnic spot by the River Barle, just a short stroll from the cottage.

Customer reviews

Good or bad, we publish all the reviews left by the guests who have stayed at this property.

Mr Willis

Lane cottage is a perfect place to stay for 2 people wishing to explore Exmoor.

Mr Jackson

We loved it and will definitely go again in the future.

Mrs Nugent

Enjoyed our stay, clean and comfortable cottage with everything we needed. Bridge Inn and The Lion Hotel good for food. Plenty to do within 30mins drive. Lane to cottage very tight but managed ok with a medium size car.

Mrs Griffin

We had a lovely stay in Lane Cottage. The views and walks around the area were outstanding. The owners really tried to make our stay comfortable. It was a small cottage but we had everything we needed. Very central to town.

Mr GIBSON

Highly recommended. Easy walk into Dulverton. Private rear garden with a small table and 2 chairs which were ideal due to the glorious sunshine!! The cottage had everything we needed. Some folks have complained about the narrow entrance. We arrived in a wider car than last time so after unloading outside Lane Cottage, we parked just up the road free of charge. Maps and local info in cottage which were really useful including the walking routes.

Mrs WONNACOTT

Cosy small cottage exactly as you see it online.

Mrs Harknett

Excellent location, walking distance of lots of eating options. Really quiet. Very friendly village

Ms Brown

Make clear the restricted access in the listing, rather than just putting it in the arrival document - this is too late to enable guests to make informed decisions.

Mrs Gray

Local car park £5 per day. Better to park here. Otherwise tricky parking and turning space when neighbours cars parked close.

Mr Clarke

We had a very enjoyable stay at Lane Cottage. It is a true cottage in all senses and met our expectations. We would consider returning in the future.

Mrs Baker

Very cosy for one or two people, extremely quiet location despite being in the heart of the town. Extremely comfortable home from home.

Mrs Atkins

Quaint cottage with everything needed for a weeks stay in lovely location with plenty of choices for walking and eating

Ms Emlyn-Jones

We had a wonderful time in this beautiful old cottage. Great location in the centre of Dulverton but so quiet and relaxing. Everything you need in this small but perfectly formed home-from-home. Cosy evenings were spent in front of the log burner after fabulous Exmoor walks.

Mr Jaycock

Garden lovely, peaceful. Should mention the narrow access. A small car would not be an issue.

Mr Tait

Very comfortable cottage in perfect location .

Mrs Routledge

Lane Cottage is a good base for walking and exploring the area Dulverton is a friendly place

Mr Lawless

Lane Cottage was a charming little cottage with real character and excellent facilities. Can thoroughly recommend it for a cosy, relaxing holiday.

Mr Beveridge

Dulverton is a good base ,a fine little town,good pubs and food and friendly people.

Mrs Gallup

If you have mobility problems stairs could be tricky especially with toilet upstairs. If you are over 6 foot be prepared to bang your head. Lounge only about 6 foot high. Parking next to house tight but car park next door and parking in street. Dulverton a lovely town with good butcher and large coop. Nice shops to browse in. The lion pub and restaurant, the bridge inn and Woods restaurant all excellent and easy to walk to. Most dog friendly town we have ever been in. Roads quiet and peaceful in May and a delight to drive on. Lovely walks along rivers and on moors. Places to visit such as Dunster and Porlock and cream teas everywhere.

Mr Goddard

An excellent base for keen/fit walkers.

Mrs Gillies

Excellent location in lovely village. Dulverton has all the necessary facilities - without being over busy or touristy. It is within easy reach of all parts of Exmoor and the north Somerset coast. The cottage is very attractive and characterful and is quiet, peaceful and surrounded by greenery. .

Mr Holloway

Although it is mentioned the lane really is quite difficult to negotiate with a medium sized car

Mrs Freeman

Charming olde worlde cottage in great location. Very comfortable and everything you need is provided. Minutes walk to the town with excellent facilities. Friendly people, good service in shops and restaurants and very dog friendly. Would happily visit again

Mrs Richards

It was a very cosy and warming

Mrs Charman

From booking to leaving we had contact with someone who knew the area and was helpful. The cottage had everything you could need in a peaceful location. Ideally placed for the village and with walks from the door step, you'd be hard pressed to fault Lane Cottage. We're planning our next trip!

Mrs Clifford

Brilliant location, lovely town and a lovely cosy cottage.

Mrs White

Lane Cottage is a beautiful cosy cottage in a wonderful location. The owners were lovely, ensuring that we were happy throughout our stay, but without being intrusive. We felt that any problems or issues would have been sorted immediately (although I must say that there weren't any). The location is second to none and would most certainly recommend to all, as a friendly, dog welcoming place. We fell in love with Dulverton and will be returning. Thank you Classic Cottages and Ian and Vicky.

Mr Gibson

Very enjoyable stay. Many homely, welcoming touches [real internal flowers, maps, guides, etc]. Very local easy walk to 4 excellent restaurants and pubs. Highly recommended.

Mr Bowditch

A fantastic cottage in a beautiful village.Truly walks right from the door. Dog friendly pubs & tea rooms all around the village.Only booking one week trust me you will want more.

Mr Doherty

It was the perfect, idyllic little cottage. I will definitely stay there again and the owners could have been more accommodating. The perfect peaceful time after a hectic festive period.

Miss Stanley-Smith

Owners were very kind and attentive. There were some very kind and thoughtful little extras awaiting my arrival. Logs, tea and biscuits and a bottle of wine! Hoping to return in the summer.

Mr Kerslake

Lovely cottage in a quiet location. Very cosy and comfortable. Difficult to get a larger car down Rosemary Lane, very tight on my Honda CR-V (width of car 1,820mm).

Mr Simcox

The cottage is in a lovely location with plenty to see and do in the local area. It had everything you could possibly need and was extremely comfortable and cosy. We would have no hesitation in booking again or recommending

Ms Greaves

The cottage is in a great location, in this lovely town with its services, and very accessible to the delights of Exmoor. Very tranquil.

Mr Taylor

An excellent cottage in a pleasant town with good range of shops and facilities.

Mrs Drew

Gorgeous cottage, very cozy. Perfect location for some excellent walks around the area, didn't use the car once. Restaurants and pubs were excellent and all nearby. Would definitely recommend and hope to return soon.

Mrs Smith

A perfect 'Escape to the Country'. Ideal cottage, in a beautiful village, didn't want to leave. Will recommend to friends in Australia.

Mrs Townend

The cottage was beautifully presented with every possible need catered for (hairdryer, iron, etc,) Fresh milk in the fridge, tea tray with local biscuits set out and even fresh flowers on arrival. Felt immediately at home.

Mrs Waters

The enjoyment of our holiday was improved greatly by the thoughtful and welcoming Lane Cottage.

Mr Nicholls

Beautiful cottage in a wonderful location, surrounded by stunning countryside and sumptuous eateries to return to in the evenings - what more could you want !!!

Mr Bunning

An excellent cottage in a great location.

Mrs Jarrett

everything was delightful but be sure to use a small car as the lane is rather narrow!

Ms Fisher

your company and the cottage is just perfect. The pictures of the cottage do not really give you the feel for the place. All I can it was just perfect. The kitchen is a fully functioning kitchen, so we made some great dinners. The little TV is great, and the bed is just so comfortable. Just what you need when you come back from a nice long walk. The little porch around the back is also nice as you always need somewhere to take your muddy boots off. Would stay again and would recommend family and friends.

Mr Selby

Some information about the property would be interesting, especially about the history, and its previous uses.

Mr Lord

Comfortable cottage in a nice location for an Exmoor holiday. Recommended.
