The turret apartment of Metropole Court, could arguably be the best apartment in the West Somerset area.

The Turret name comes from the sitting room which has a sitting area with five window perspectives providing far reaching views to The Bristol Channel, North Hill, Wales and The Quantocks.

The apartment is currently decorated to a simple level, but would benefit from modernisation and improvement. Currently, it comprises four bedrooms, the sitting room, fitted kitchen, three bath/shower rooms and it has sealed unit double glazed windows and electric heating. It is fully possible to remodel the interior layout and create a dream apartment, to best take advantage of the views and location.

The apartment is on the top floor with lift access of what was originally the Metropole Hotel and was converted into 27 apartments, some years ago. It still retains something of the age and grandeur of the age and benefits from having a lift and communal areas, which are currently in the process of being redecorated.
From our office in Friday Street proceed down through the town towards the seafront. On reaching the front take the first turning Minehead Harbour and Metropole Court will be found shortly after on the left hand side.
