  We had a lovely time here over New Year.

  The cottage is small but well appointed so didn’t feel cramped. There was an odd fusty smell in the bedroom which we narrowed down to a pillow - once banished the smell disappeared. The kitchen is well stocked with utensils and exceptionally clean. The complimentary milk, bottle of fizz and cream tea was a thoughtful touch and highly appreciated after a 5 hour journey! As was the doggie care kit. I failed to take any shower gel based on the pictures - which showed it was provided - there were no toiletries but I just used my other half’s (my fault for assuming). The beach was a disappointment - small and due to tide, only appearing for a couple of hours each day but the cliff walk is good if you have the knees! The Port William pub was fantastic - friendly staff, good food and dog friendly with a great view over the cove. All in all - great holiday and would recommend the cottage.

  Fabulous stay - the lodge is well equipped, well maintained and really comfortable.

  The kitchen contained everything you needed for the stay; literally everything was provided and thought about. It was lovely to receive the welcome goodies, especially the homemade Easter cakes and flapjacks - they went down very well indeed. The bedroom was huge and really comfortable with a nice en-suite bathroom The owners (Fiona and Gary) were very welcoming, friendly and on-hand for any problems; not that we had any problems what so ever! The only very slight issue was the wifi kept dropping in and out, but that is just a tiny niggle in the grand scheme of things The small gravel garden area was very pleasant to sit in and just listen to the peace and quiet of the surrounding area. Location was good for visiting places such as Glastonbury, Langport and Street and there were plenty of local markets to visit We had a lovely week and would go back for another visit.

  This was a fantastic break!

  The Beach Hut is in a idilic location, perfect for those long coastal walks, easy access (20 yards away) to the sea and beach, when the tide is out. The Hut was exceptionally well presented and had everything that we could have wanted. The shower was strong and hot which is essential and all the fitting were of a high standard and quite luxurious. There were also independently operated radiators which gave us total control of the heating. This was not really needed but just putting them on for 30 minutes in the evening made all the difference to taking the chill and damp out of the air. The pub was clearly only 4 minutes walk away and with fore-planning eating out there was no problem and quite good pub grub, with marvellous views. What better way to watch the sun go down after a long day walking or in the sea? A brilliant place, property and value!

  Beautiful cottage in the most beautiful place.

  So welcoming and the attention to detail is a real wow!! This was our second visit to Beach Hut and the cream tea provided on arrival is such a lovely touch. I would just like to add, that when we visited last year bedding was not provided - and on the back of COVID that was understandable. However we are in different times now and with the world back to normal. We got this cottage at a discount and booked 2 weeks prior to arrival- and there were 3 weeks available in August at the time of booking. It’s a shame that such a high quality and beautiful cottage should not be getting the bookings it deserves as the standard is so high. Provide the bedding and this place sells out at top dollar. Owners are selling themselves short. I have not marked it down at all due to this as it is truly wonderful x

  I would expect toilet rolls and bin liners to be provided as indeed they have been in other holiday cottages stayed in.

  Two toilet rolls were not enough for two people and neither was three green bin liners. We’re very covid aware as are the owners and didn’t really want to be driving to the shops to stock up on these items. Otherwise it was a very comfortable and lovely place to stay. Super clean and easy to keep clean. On a personal note I won’t be staying in a Sykes cottage again until bedlinen/towels etc are provided. I found it too much taking it all. I needed a place that week to fully relax and not turn up after a long drive to make the bed then return with all the sheet washing etc. I know it’s a small thing but I wanted to mention it. Perhaps this could also be mentioned before booking. Thank you for a lovely week.
