We managed to book this property at the last minute, but saw from the reviews in the visitor book that this is rarely possible. It was as good as the pictures and peoples review say, a gem of a property set in a quiet area of Somerset. The location was perfect for visiting local villages and those slightly further afield towards either of the coast lines. The property was a real home from home, I’m usually glad to get back home by the end of a break, but I really didn’t want to leave this property. It had everything you can need and so much more. We walked in to find that there were fairy lights on the beams and a lovely big Xmas tree in the front lounge. A log burner with as many logs you want available to you, this was really lovely at the beginning of our stay, as the weather was really cold. Not that you need to use it as there is underfloor heating throughout. We are already talking about seeing if we can stay again for our next break, and I have never booked the same property twice. You have USB points in all the right places and a smart TV in both the main living area and the front lounge. There is also a writing desk, suitable to work on a laptop, if needed. I can’t list the number of small things that they have thought of, but it has all been tastefully decorated, with premium bedding and towels and items you didn’t think you needed! The owners live next door but except for the day we arrived, never saw them again. Although, they were available by text or phone call if you did need them. The barn conversion was in fact completed by one of the owners and the craftsmanship shows throughout.

We spent last weekend at Old Farm and it was great. Super cosy and I would say it’s the best holiday home we’ve stayed in made even better by Christmas tree and lights twinkling. Definitely hope to return one day
