Four bedrooms · Four en-suites · Sleeps eight · Dog Friendly
Set in the heart of Watchet, just round the corner from the harbour, somewhere to get away from it all, to take time out with friends and family and relax.
48 Swain Street as our own holiday home – a place where we escape from everyday life, spend time with friends and family and simply relax. We’ve created a comfortable and welcoming home where you can do exactly the same.
Four beautiful bedrooms
Each of our four spacious bedrooms has its own en-suite bathroom with a luxurious slipper bath and walk-in shower. After a day exploring Exmoor, the Quantock Hills or the beach, you can sink into the bath or enjoy a refreshing shower before settling down for the evening.
Every bedroom has its own dressing area with a wardrobe and dressing table, as well as a hairdryer and television. We’ve given each room its own character with a beautiful mural and pictures inspired by the National Gallery or National Portrait Gallery.
We’ve also chosen comfortable beds and high-quality white linen to help you relax and enjoy a good night’s sleep.
Two bedrooms have king-size beds and two have super-king beds. We can arrange the super-king beds as twins if you request this when booking.
Room 1 (Queens room) A super king bed or twin beds upon request.
Room 2 (Kings room) A king size bed
Room 3 (The hands of Christina of Denmark) A super king bed or twin beds upon request.
Room 4 (The girl) A king size bed
En-suite Bathrooms (every bedroom has an ensuite bathroom with slipper bath and walk-in shower)
Kitchen
The ground floor has a well equipped kitchen, perfect for preparing a special dinner, baking cakes or fixing a simple snack. There is a kitchen table at one end (I find this an idyllic spot to enjoy a morning cup of tea whilst planning the day ahead) and a range cooker at the other, very useful if you’re cooking for eight or more. Appliances include a washer/drier, dishwasher and fridge freezer. There’s also a good selection of cook books if you need inspiration, and useful items for days out such as flasks and a picnic hamper.
Sitting / Dining room
Across from the kitchen is the sitting/dining room. It’s a lovely sociable room, with the original shop window a real feature. The dining table comfortably seats eight, perfect for chilled-out evening meals with friends or family. At the opposite end of the room are two four-seater sofas and a couple of armchairs, a comfy spot to put your feet up and relax after a day exploring. There’s a good stock of books and board games, a smart TV with Freeview and a PlayStation 4 for with a selection of games to suit all.
It should be noted that there is no garden. This has never presented a problem to us as we’re right in the heart of Watchet, where you can just walk outside the door to enjoy the town’s atmosphere. We’re quite fond of watching the sun go down at the harbour.

Children
48 Swain Street works particularly well for older children, teenagers and adults. However, we’re very happy to welcome younger children and toddlers too. As we haven’t designed the house specifically for little ones, we don’t provide stair gates, cots or highchairs. So, please bring anything you need for your stay.
Above all, we want to make sure that 48 Swain Street works well for your family, so you can relax and enjoy your time with us.
Dogs
We love dogs, we welcome up to two dogs at 48 Swain Street. We don’t have a garden, but this doesn’t present a problem as within 2 minutes walk there are clifftop and beach walks, so taking your dog out couldn’t be easier.
When you head out, please take your dog with you. We ask that you don’t leave dogs alone in the house. If your dog likes to curl up on the sofa, please bring a dog blanket to protect the furniture.
Watchet and the surrounding area is a wonderfully dog-friendly. Many local shops welcome dogs, while the coastal and Exmoor walks are a doggie dream.
There is an additional charge of £20 per dog, please mention when booking if you plan to bring your dog.
