We really enjoyed our week in Pitch Back. The cottage made the perfect base for touring around Somerset/Dorset and with such a beautiful countryside setting it was also a wonderful place to sit and relax or enjoy some wonderful local walks. We loved sitting out on the patio and enjoying a meal and of course a glass of wine! Thanks to Glen, the owner and we are very happy to recommend this property to others.
