I could quite happily have spent 2 days just in Dunster then used it as a base for the wider area - the beaches and even Cheddar gorge. We ate dinner at the Luttrell Arms which was nice but Reeves looked good too. We had coffee and cake at Tessa's Tea rooms and bought stuff in the independent shops. The only thing I'd have changed was the weather as we had a few downpours but that's Britain for you!!

Iys a very old village with more grade 2 listed buildings than anywhere else in England. The Castle and grounds are always good to visit. We had a good choice of walks in the surrounding countryside. There are a few good places to eat including a very good Aisian restaurant. It's very easy to get around the village.

Dunster is on the edge of Exmoor National Park, which imho is the most underrated national park in the UK. The views are magnificent, with small cozy towns, beautiful nature, good roads for walking, cycling and mountain biking. Dunster itself is a small cozy village with a proper Castle, although through shortness of time we didn't visit it.

The small town has a lot to offer - lovely walks around the castle, good restaurants to choose from, interesting shops and a superb art gallery with a labrynth of beautiful works of art. A must has to be the West Somerset railway which you can catch the steam train from Dunster station - Dunster Beach is close by where can walk to Blue Anchor along the stunning coastal path.
Hathaway Restaurant is quirky but great food.
Yarn Market Hotel offers a good menu in homely surroundings.

We had a lovely stay at the house.
We had a lovely stay at the house.
Pete and Karen were the perfect hosts. Very friendly and made us feel very welcome.
Good local knowledge and recommendations.
Very pretty area and good location for all amenities.
Fabulous room with seating area, overlooking the garden. The bath! Essential after a 50km run! Lovely toiletries. Really comfy bed. Fridge with complimentary water. Fan which was appreciated as so hot. Food was fabulous, as were the restaurant staff- the same 2 ladies seemed to be there all weekend, as was the lovely lady on reception. Staff all so friendly. Rear access to the castle and to my race.
Perfect location in the centre of this historic village. Lovely comfortable room with its own entrance which was extremely useful as we had our dog with us.
Breakfast choice excellent. Quality produce served which was tasty and plentiful.
Parking on site was a bonus as village parking is limited. Owners Lisa and John were absolutely amazing and nothing was too much trouble.
Fourth time staying here, each time in a different room. Delighted with all of them. Love all the thoughtful little extras, such as bath bubbles and sun cream for my face. Fresh milk in the fridge outside our door, along with spare supplies of drinks and snacks. Lovely location for exploring the village, with handy on-street parking right outside the door from 6pm to 9am.
We were here during the Dunster Archeryweek. We enyoing the wonderfull cottage. Fully complete and a pleasure to stay and live in it.
Next year we're coming back, for sure!
Dean and Colin, you are two lovely guys and two wonderful hosts. You've make our stay complete.
Dean you cooking is fabelous and Colin you make from the garden a little paradise.
Staff were all very friendly and hardworking. Food generally was a high standard and lots of it. Breakfast was ok but due to being the only couple in the hotel we did not receive a full cooked breakfast as expected - limited to tinned tomatoes, although fresh tomatoes were on the menu, and no effort made to supply them.
It was all perfect! Tessa was a fabulous host, and made us feel welcome right away. The location and property were also fantastic, and felt like stepping into a comforting novel. If we're ever back towards Dunster I wouldn't hesitate to stay again. Please give this a chance if you're able!
Lovely, spacious cottage. Some beautiful features and quite quirky. Very comfortable beds. Extremely well equipped with everything you need in the kitchen. Pretty garden with stream running through it. Nice under floor heating in the bathroom. Walking distance to Dunster Castle.
Luxurious little apartment on Dunster High Street. Comfy bed, with lovely linen and towels. Well equipped little kitchenette - fridge, microwave and hob. Efficient walk in shower
Lovely owner, who makes fabulous cake! Lovely Deli opposite. Would stay again.
A wonderful place to stay in Dunster. Fabulous hosts, super clean and comfortable. We enjoyed eating in their restaurant Hathaways - you must book in advance to get in. Kasia was an excellent host and Sandro’s food was perfection. Don’t stay anywhere else!
The hotel is superbly located, a very short walk to the castle and close to all the shops and restaurants. Everyone was so friendly and our room was spacious, clean and very comfortable.
Dunster is an amazing little village with wonderful walks and a spectacular garden and castle! Little Dragons is in a wonderful location within a couple of minutes walk of everything.
One of the best hotels we have visited, a very well presented, feel good place, quirky in places and very homely, breakfast, bar and evening meals all top class. Great stay...
