Situated in the idyllic village of Monksilver on the edge of Exmoor National Park and only 3 miles from the coast, the Old Malthouse provides the perfect base from which to explore one of the most beautiful regions of the British Isles. The Old Malthouse sits in the heart of the village, within a few moments walk of the highly rated Notley Arms public house. The property is full of character including the inglenook fireplace and log burner for extra warmth after a busy day exploring. In warmer weather, guests can spend their evenings outside in the private courtyard garden or on the small lawn adjacent to the private gravelled parking area across the quiet road. There are three bedrooms, two double and one single, ensuring that the cottage sleeps up to 5 guests in comfort. The bathroom upstairs has a bath, powerful “rainfall” shower, toilet, hand basin, large heated towel rail and illuminated mirror.
The kitchen/dining room is fitted with a halogen hob, electric oven, dishwasher, fridge/freezer, washer/dryer, microwave, kettle, and toaster. There is a full complement of saucepans, kitchen utensils, cutlery, crockery and glasses.
In the sitting-room guests can enjoy a 32” LED TV with built in DVD and Freeview channels. Wireless broadband is available throughout the cottage.
A high chair can be made available, please request this at time of booking.
There is ample space in the main bedroom for guests to put up a travel cot if required (cot is not provided).
There is no stair gate in place at this property and the stairs are characteristically uneven, we suggest that if a child is unable to hold on to banister then The Old Malthouse would not be suitable for them - sorry.
Electricity and heating costs are included in the price of your accommodation. The Old Malthouse has electric storage heating, with individually adjustable radiators. There is also a log burner in the sitting room and a complimentary supply of logs, kindling and firelighters to get you started. Further logs can be purchased locally if required.
Bed linen, duvets, blankets and towels are provided, but please bring your own beach towels if you require them for day trips.
You will find tea, coffee, sugar, salt and pepper, toilet rolls, kitchen paper and cleaning materials in the cottage. Also a bottle of wine to prove your holiday has begun.
Private off-road parking is available for two vehicles on the gravelled area opposite the side entrance to the property (across the quiet single-track road). There is also a garden area adjacent to the parking, ideal for picnics in the sunshine (not enclosed).
Dogs are welcome by prior arrangement (maximum of 2). A supplementary fee of 15 GBP will be added to your invoice. Please do not allow your dogs on the furniture or upstairs and do not leave them alone in the property at any time. The Old Malthouse is strictly non-smoking.
