Guests say
Bee Cottage receives glowing praise for its spotless cleanliness, comfortable furnishings, and peaceful, well-situated location ideal for exploring Somerset and nearby attractions. Guests consistently highlight the well-equipped kitchen, cosy log burner, and welcoming hosts who are helpful yet unobtrusive. Thoughtful touches such as welcome gifts and fresh linens are frequently mentioned, though not guaranteed. Minor points raised include a slippery shower floor, a shortage of teaspoons, and the absence of a dishwasher. Overall, guests highly recommend Bee Cottage for a relaxing and enjoyable stay.
Cleanliness is repeatedly described as 'spotless', 'immaculate', and '100% clean', with fresh-smelling bedding and towels. Only one review mentions a minor issue with a slippery shower floor, but this does not detract from the overwhelmingly positive feedback.
The location is praised for being peaceful, quiet, and central to many attractions such as National Trust properties, Glastonbury, and Wells. Guests appreciate the easy access to local amenities and the tranquil village setting.
Guests find the cottage very comfortable, with high-quality furnishings, cosy beds, and a relaxing atmosphere. One review notes a mattress could be improved, but this is a rare comment among otherwise excellent feedback.
The cottage is described as extremely well-equipped, with a modern kitchen, log burner, TVs in all rooms, and good Wi-Fi. Minor suggestions include more teaspoons, wine glasses, and the addition of a dishwasher, but overall satisfaction is very high.
Many guests mention thoughtful touches such as welcome gifts, hampers, and friendly, accommodating hosts. While these gestures are appreciated, it should be noted that such gifts are not guaranteed for every stay.

Would thoroughly recommend staying at Bee Cottage. The owners are very nice and are always helpful if you need any help with places to visit. If you are interested in houses and gardens there are plenty that are relatively nearby. Also would recommend a day at the Fleet Air Arm Museum and The Haynes automobile museum. As we are from the north of England we took the owners advice and took the M5 from close to Bridgewater and had a very pleasant drive back home. The local pub is very handy and does great food and has a good selection of Ales and Ciders to try.
