Reference
Winder Cottage is a delightful detached thatched property, nestled in the peaceful hamlet of Bratton—just two miles from the seafront at Minehead and on the edge of Exmoor National Park. Believed to date from the 17th century, the cottage is Grade II listed and offers a rare combination of historic charm and modern comfort.
The accommodation has been thoughtfully improved and extended in recent years, with careful attention paid to preserving original features such as exposed beams, timbers, and the impressive inglenook fireplace. At the same time, the property benefits from modern electric heating, stylish fittings, and underfloor heating in key areas.
The ground floor includes a welcoming entrance hall, a generous sunroom/dining area with vaulted ceiling and bi-fold doors opening to the garden, and a luxurious bathroom featuring a freestanding roll-top bath, high-level WC, and concealed utility cupboard. The kitchen/breakfast room is full of character and functionality, with a range of units, timber work surfaces, Belfast sink, Esse electric cooker, and integrated appliances.
The sitting room is warm and inviting, with its inglenook fireplace and original winder staircase leading to the first floor. Upstairs are two charming double bedrooms, both with exposed beams, along with a well-appointed shower room with underfloor heating and access to loft space.
Outside, the gardens are a real highlight—beautifully landscaped and offering a high degree of privacy. The space includes a paved terrace, lawns, fruit trees, flower borders, and a further patio alongside a stream. A double garage is located opposite the property, with an adjoining open-fronted wood store and additional off-road parking.
Bratton is a charming hamlet surrounded by rolling countryside and open farmland, offering a sense of escape and tranquillity that’s hard to find. There are beautiful walks from the doorstep, and the area is popular with horse riders and nature lovers alike. Just minutes from the coast and sitting at the gateway to Exmoor National Park, this is a place where you can slow down, breathe deeply, and truly enjoy the best of West Somerset.
