We had a lovely time in the cottage. Beautiful location, wonderful time investigation the owner woods which had some interesting things to find, great for kids but we thoroughly enjoyed it too. Hot tub was great, beds comfy, rooms spacious especially the lounge dinner, views lovely, village quant, kitchen was retro which we loved and fully equipped. Walks from the door and great garden. We had a super time and would definitely love to visit again. Would definitely recommend.

The owners were amazing, location is secluded and the best bit is the private forest where you can feed the fish or go on the tree swing. All really well thought out. The house is absolutely lovely with well equipped kitchen and generous size rooms. Its right next to a field and with the forest its just perfect for a doggy holiday. Enjoyed the hot tub too!

Beautiful location and bungalow. Would have given five star review but for the fact it's a "bit tired". The best place for country folk who enjoy comfort and space. We loved the tranquillity, the proximity to lovely villages, beaches, independent shops, Clarks Village, and Somerset hospitality.Very suitable for 3 couples get away, hot tub with good clear star gazing. we suspect that a family with children would also find it a relaxing place but to remain aware of the large garden pond. Ample parking and a tree lined drive to boot, look for the stone dog on the shed :-)Sad to have to leave it was just what the Dr ordered.We were Mr and Mrs, disabled son and dog
