Holly’s barn is perfect for a break away from it all. Quiet location and lovely hosts. The barn itself has everything you need and it’s cosy & comfortable. Parking is tight if you have a large car. The local carvery does fab food as does the Indian, Chandni. So many surrounding places to visit within the hour. Glastonbury is lovely and has many unique shops that you won’t find on your average high street! Bristol has great shopping and lots of bars & nightlife. ZaZa is perfect for a night out, buffet on one floor with bar and music underneath. Book Holly’s Barn with confidence.

The barn was perfect for 2 people. It was easy to find, safe parking and ideally situated for the coastal towns, cheddar and bath plus other places of interest. The barn itself was cosy and the radiators were adjustable so that we were comfortable over the 4 days even though the temperature outside dipped below freezing
