  We had a lovely 3 night stay at Field View.

  We wanted to be as remote as possible to avoid any NYE fireworks and this was the perfect location. Nicola and Mike have thought of everything, this is a luxurious home from home place to be. The kitchen is well equipped making self catering easy, there is a great strong shower, and super comfy bed. The garden was completely secure for our dog so we had no concerns there. Although we were there in December at no point were we cold, the property has lovely solid floors so we were pleased we had packed our slippers (we always do) but the cottage stayed warm throughout as there are lots of radiators and heated towel rails. Bedding was spotlessly clean and there was an abundance of towels. Nicola and Mike had also kindly popped in some welcome treats which were very much appreciated, especially the freshly laid eggs. Although remote and rural the Greyhound Pub is only a short drive away, and Taunton was only about a 15 min drive away. The views were amazing and we were only disappointed that we weren’t there longer in warmer weather to have a lazy breakfast in the garden. We would definitely return and definitely recommend.

  What a gem!

  The cottage is located surrounded by countryside. You have wonderful views, beautiful birdsong all day, incredible sunsets & we were even lucky enough to see deer in the field twice during our stay! It's the most lovely place to relax, unwind & get away from it all. The cottage itself is just perfect! So well equipped, comfortable & clean throughout. That fireplace is stunning. The owners, Nicola and Mike, are just so lovely, so friendly & we enjoyed chatting with them during our stay. And meeting their gorgeous doggies too. It's great they're just next door & on hand if you need anything, but equally they give you complete privacy whilst you're at the cottage. We were so lucky with the endless sunshine whilst we stayed, but the cottage stayed so cool inside which was great for our elderly springer. We had such a relaxing few days & although we explored different places in the area, or was equally just at nice to sit in the garden & absorb the views. We couldn't recommend Field View enough & we will definitely be back to stay again

  We would like to thank Mike and Nicola for providing us with a beautiful little cottage for our holiday.

  The welcome pack really was welcome after the journey down from Yorkshire. The cottage is really well set out and you can see that a lot of time and effort has been taken to make sure the guests have a good time whilst there. It is the most peaceful tranquil cottage we have been in with amazing scenery and sunsets, we managed to go to Dorset, Devon and Somerset attractions whilst there and the only negative we had is that we didn't have more time there than the week we had, our problem not there's. The bed was amazing and you could have stayed there all day but then you wouldn't see any of the amazing countryside and towns. You have all the equipment to cook for yourself or go for a drink and a meal at one of the local pubs, the Greyhound is really good and very popular. Again many thanks to you both and not forgetting Lily, we hope to come back to see you again soon but this time it will be for a longer break, take care of yourselves. Rosaline and Steve (Sheffield).

  Can't praise this little Annexe and the hosts Lucy and Chris enough.

  The supplies (food basics and extras, toiletries, cleaning products) and facilities provided were above and beyond - they thought of everything. The kitchen is fully equipped with everything you might need, all good quality. The sofa is lovely and large. The bedding is such lovely quality and the bed very comfy. I didn't want to get up. The views are lovely, even in winter, and there is a safe route to take dogs for walks between the fields and up to the woods. Our dog loved it. We loved seeing the horses too. All made for a very enjoyable stay over New Year. One little thing to be aware of is the steps to the bedroom are quite steep and narrow, so might be difficult for someone with mobility issues. Also, the road at the front of the property does not have pavement in either direction, so its not safe to walk straight out. Car needs to be used to get to anywhere else for walks/ food/ pub/ shops especially in the evening. All in all, we would definitely recommend a stay at the Clarendon Stud!

  The cottage was delightful but I think more attention to detail is required for the price of the property.

  The furniture is tired. The settee in the front room has stains on it and although comfortable to sit on I felt a little uncomfortable because of the way the cleanliness made me feel. The bed although comfortable squeaked every time you moved…this needs looking at. The fridge had been cleaned with bleach prior to our arrival so smelt of bleach…fridges shouldn’t be cleaned with bleach. For some reason we couldn’t get the fridge to work…it kept freezing the food. The garden was nice but could be lovely with a bit more attention to detail. And it would have been nice if the garden furniture had been cleaned prior to our arrival. The conservatory was lovely but the skylight needed cleaning. Lots of cobwebs and dead flies. The bathroom had very large cobwebs in it. Overall the place is nice, cosy and peaceful but as said it needs a bit more TLC to make it better. It’s in a lovely location and we would stay again for that reason.
