Fabulous old property in great location

Loved staying at 3 The Old Police House in Dunster over Easter with my mum and dog. Great location with easy walk to pubs and shops in Dunster, own parking and lovely local dog walks available - especially along the beach/coast path to Minehead. The house was very comfortable, good layout and warm and cosy. Would have preferred the log burner to be in the sitting room rather than the bedroom but would definitely book here again.
