Enjoying an elevated position in the Somerset town of Minehead, commanding views across the countryside, Step a Side is a traditional, thatched, one-bedroom cottage. Ideal for a romantic break with your loved one, it's a lovely base for soaking up the sun on the Somerset coast. Once you have marvelled at the picture-perfect thatched exterior, head inside straight into the charming sitting room, offering a classic cottage style with an electric stove-effect fire set before the sofa and armchair. Step down into the kitchen/diner where you can enjoy breakfast at the table and rustle up some home-cooked meals when you're not out sampling the delicious restaurants of Minehead. You can look forward to retiring to the double bedroom at the end of the day, featuring exposed beams and an original decorative fireplace, with the bathroom across the hall hosting a bath with a shower over. Step a side is just a short walk from the shops and pubs of Minehead, so you can dine out and take an evening stroll on the esplanade before heading back home. Prepare a picnic and head to Blenheim Gardens, or grab some fish and chips and sit at the harbour as the boats come and go. From here why not take a boat trip with fishing trips and coastal cruises available to view the beautiful coast from the waters. Walkers can enjoy exploring the shoreline via the South West Coast Path heading west, and expect to encounter some lovely beaches along the way, including Bossington Beach and Porlock Weir. The Exmoor National Park is also on your doorstep; visit the highest point above sea level at Dunkery Beacon and fine the remains of a Bronze Age burial ground, as well as sighting some amazing wildlife with ponies and red deer often seen in this area, as well as skylarks and buzzards. Enjoy the delights of both the coast and countryside of Somerset at Step a Side.

Settled along the coast is the lovely town of Minehead, a popular seaside resort sheltered beneath the dramatic North Hill. Home to a host of shops, pubs and eateries, as well as a mile-long esplanade, pretty harbour and golden beach, it makes the ideal place to enjoy a break away. Access the South West Coast Path to the west and the West Somerset Coast Path to the east, offering a wonderful way to explore the area.
