My Wife & I stayed at Blackberry lodge for 4 nights in October 2025. This was the perfect size for a couple looking for a getaway. The local area was great for walks especially around cheddar gorge. Weston super-mare was also a short drive as was Wells and Glastonbury that we also visited. The property had its own parking space was generally clean, warm and comfortable and had everything we needed although you only get a small amount of plates and cutlery enough for two (but we managed) the hosts were friendly and gave clear instructions and comms we would stay here again if visiting in the future.
