“I think the first thing we all did when we entered the cottage was say “Wow!”. What a beautiful, relaxing and ultimately fantastic way to spend a week. The cottage is so well-equipped to be able to cook and clean when need, and it is so well-situated that everything you need is on your doorstep. And then there’s the hot tub! I think we spent every day in it, and we will all miss its relaxing jets and the beautiful views surrounding it. Overall, a truly uniquely lovely way to spend a week away from work and writing this, I already want to come back! Thank you so much to the team who couldn’t have been more helpful and lovely during our stay 😊.”

“We have all loved staying in your wonderful cottage. Have enjoyed hot tub! We had everything we needed, loved it. We will recommend Pilgrim Corner to all our family and would stay again. A big thank you.”

“Staying at Pilgrim Corner is really as wonderful and as beautiful as all the reviews say. We were a family of six adults and two children, and it was than spacious enough for all. We love to cook and there are more than enough utensils – whatever the recipe – with a choice to gather around the table in the kitchen, dining room or garden. Pilgrim Corner is nestled at the foot of the steps leading to the 14th century St Michael’s Church and surrounded by similar picturesque cob-walled cottages in the historic part of Minehead on North Hill, far enough away from the town to enjoy the quiet, peaceful countryside and a 10-minute downhill stroll to the sandy beach and town centre. We’ve arrived back home feeling completely relaxed and with wonderful memories of our time at Pilgrim Corner and are already comparing diaries to plan our next stay there!”

“We had the most wonderful time. Stunning location, the hot tub has beautiful views. It has given the seven of us wonderful memories to treasure. And we may come back another time. Thank you!”

“My wife and I travelled down to Minehead with our two daughters aged 15 and 12 and our dog Kassie for a well-earned rest. Pilgrim Corner is the ideal place to do this in a beautiful well-equipped cottage. Some lovely long walks with Kassie were then followed by a lovely relaxing afternoon in the hot tub! At being at the edge of Minehead in a peaceful part of town it is only a few minutes to walk into the main area for all the shops and places to eat. From our arrival with cake and treats for Kassie along with a bottle of fizz for Tanya as it was her birthday, it was perfect! You will not be disappointed with Pilgrim Corner – we’ve already booked again!! Thanks guys.”

“My family and I stayed here beginning of April. We also brought our two dogs along with us. The house accommodated is all very comfortably and there was space for the dogs too. It’s very well decorated inside with its own unique touches and quirkiness. The back garden with the hot tub is absolutely stunning and the dogs had lots of space to run. The garden also had lovely little garden sheds which were great to sit and relax in. My family and I cannot rate this house highly enough. This cottage has everything you need for a really comfortable and relaxing holiday. We also stayed in The Old Sweet Shop cottage next door last year. It too was lovely. We can’t decide which one we like most as they are both excellent in their own ways. By far the best cottages we have ever stayed in – and we been in a lot of cottages. The hosts Lucy and Paul are very friendly and very helpful also and really go out of their way to make sure you have a perfect stay. I would recommend this cottage – and The Old Sweet Shop – to anyone.”

“Another good stay in Minehead with wonderful walks through the woods and along the beach towards Dunster with our cocker spaniels Lola and Charlie. It’s our second stay at ‘Pilgrim’, so when we said, ‘We’ll be back’, we meant it! We’ve now also stayed twice at The Old Sweet Shop. They are both great dog and people friendly cottages. We will be back for sure!

“Great 70th birthday surprise getaway! Second time here and it didn’t disappoint! Thank you for making the cottage so homely and ensuring everything ran so smoothly during our stay. I’m sure we will be back.”

“Wow! What a lovely cottage – even better than any of the photos! We booked in January and have been looking forward to having all the family together for Christmas, counting down the months. From the moment we arrived, staying here has been a joy! Cooking Christmas lunch was a sinch, the range cooked everything perfectly – with a little help from hubby! The hot tub was used every day and was so relaxing. The dogs loved running around the paths in the garden and laid peacefully beside the hot tub as I floated in my little bit of heaven every morning! We had the perfect break and look forward to coming back again and again, everything has been thought of and it made this Christmas a really special one for ‘just the two of us’.”

“We are back to our second home! The cottage is as lovely as ever, giving us a warm welcome. Dunster by Candlelight was beautiful, and we were so happy we saw it. This area of ‘Upper’ Minehead is lovely, with its charm and hidden places. We followed the ‘Minehead’ story walks using our phones, it was like a treasure hunt. Once again, the hot tub lured us up to the garden at least twice a day – even in rain, wind and darkness. Great fun by all. The cottage asks us to return, which we will be doing.”

“Wow what an amazing place! The cottage is just beautiful and has so many thoughtful little touches! The Christmas decorations were just perfect for our pre-Christmas relax. The area is so stunning – there is so much to explore – we will be back! Thank you again for a beautiful stay.”

“Thank you so much for a wonderful holiday. We had an amazing time and it has made all the better for the gorgeous cottage. So well presented. The tea on arrival was much appreciated!! Can I recommend Exmoor Adventures for outdoor pursuits? We went sea kayaking with them and they were very professional. We were also lucky with the gorgeous weather. Reeves restaurant in Dunster was divine with excellent service. And we LOVED the garden and hot tub!! We hope to be back soon.”

“Thank you so much for a wonderful stay at Pilgrim Corner! What a beautiful home for all of us to enjoy and relax for my 30th Birthday. There was everything here we could need to have a great weekend, and Barney loved the garden! We hope to be back.”
Aimee & Friends, October 2018

“What a wonderful place to de-stress. Beautiful cottage very comfortable. We love it here and hope to come again. Cake and the welcome were most appreciated. Enjoyed the hot tub and views over the church and hills – delightful. Thank you so much.”

“We can only endorse all the positive comments already made about Pilgrim Corner – beautifully appointed inside and out with every need catered for. The kitchen is very well-equipped, and everything works! We appreciated the quality – and quantity of towels supplied, and the beds and bedding were likewise excellent – thank you. We have visited Devon frequently but were delighted with what Somerset had to offer – it’s now a county to go to rather than drive through. Somerset is a good eating county, with local produce widely available, cream teas, pasties and ice creams in abundance. With thanks to our hosts for making our stay so pleasurable.”
The Benson family, September 2018

“A fantastic time has been had by all four adults, two children and two dogs. Great walks for the dogs, a lovely garden for them to play in. The kids have had fun and really enjoyed themselves. A beautiful house in a stunning location! Thank you for a great stay.”

“A beautiful house in a beautiful location, we wish we could stay another week. We had lovely walks on Bossington Hill. The drive to Lynmouth is also lovely as is the town. Very dog friendly there too!”
Lynn and co, July 2018

“Amazing spacious cottage with a spectacular garden. Everyone was catered for, from two babies to eight adults and a dog! The little touches and attention to detail made our stay all the more enjoyable. It’s not often I have all my children under one roof, thank you for the memories we’ve made.”
The Clan from the Fens, July 2018

“We have all had a lovely time here at Pilgrim Corner. A beautiful, comfortable and spacious house for eight adults and a dog! Our dog enjoyed the garden, and we thought the hot tub was wonderful. The cottage had everything we needed for a relaxing home-from-home. Thank you.”
