What our customers say about their holidays

  Very friendly and helpful hosts.

  They took great care to welcome us and even booked the pub for us for the evening meal. (Phone reception not great in parts of Somerset). A great location to see most of Somerset from. We really enjoyed it in spite of the terrible weather. The property was lovely and well equipped. In its own beautiful garden. The only slight downside was the size and location of the bathroom but it was sufficient. I would not recommend the property if you have any mobility issues because of the steep stairs to the bedroom. For anyone else it is a lovely unusual property, beautifully decorated and designed. Enough of a kitchen to make your own meals and eat at the table and a reasonable seating area with sofa and two armchairs to sit and chat and look out on the garden or alternatively watch the TV. A couple of good pubs in walking distance for meals, a great local store. Near to some wonderful walks - RSPB reserves and National Trust. From the visitor book there are a lot of repeat customers, and I can see why. Would definitely book again in the future - if available. Many thanks for such a good stay and such caring hosts.

  Lovely warm greeting by Simon, Bridget and Tara, always friendly and on hand to provide any required information.

  Not intrusive happy to chat or give you as much privacy as you want. The property has everything you could need and a lovely garden view with an established garden and wonderful birds to watch. The bed was very comfortable and huge, with no noise disturbance which was led to fabulous rest. Homely touches included flowers and a fully equipped kitchen. They were very generous with the wood supply which kept us toasty and warm. We visited the local area including numerous national trust properties Dunster and Tyntesfield highly recommended . Cheddar Gorge where we the cliff top walk was very muddy but stunning views.Glastonbury (on the local bus - the bus stop is seconds walk away) and Weston-super-mare to name a few. There is a very well stocked local shop /post office which is open until 7 Mon- Sat closing at 4 on a Sunday. Recommended this beautiful haven in a lovely part of the country. Jen and Ian.

  A wonderful stay in the heart of the Somerset countryside.

  Our hosts, Bridget and Simon were very warm and welcoming. The granary was very cosy, nicely furnished and very well equipped. A lot of thought had been given to ensure guests have a pleasant stay. We have rented many cottages in recent years and this was one of best we have stayed in. It's a bonus to have everything you need - and all in good working order! We thoroughly enjoyed our break in this beautiful and peaceful location. The area is perfect for cycling and the Avalon Marshes are well worth a visit. There are several interesting towns to visit and it was only a short distance to the coast if you felt like some sea air. A perfect break in every way. It's certainly somewhere we would like to come again. Thank you Bridget and Simon (give a hug from us to your lovely labrador - sorry I can't remember her name!).

  The cottage was lovely, very quaint and characterful.

  The grounds, decking and pool were well planned out, large and well maintained. The cottage was well equipped and had everything we needed for a weeks stay. The location is great. Providing a base to explore many of the beautiful places the area has on offer. The main improvement as it stands would be to have a more sturdy handrail on the stairs. The stairs are very steep (which is not an issue as that is clearly listed), but the handrail is very flimsy and did not feel strong enough to bear much weight at all. Making descending stairs more difficult. After talking to the owners they are planning an overhaul of the property. Eventually an upstairs toilet would be ideal. If you want a place to stay in Devon, which is handy for local attractions but peaceful, beautiful and with character, this will be a perfect choice.

  If you are looking for a quiet, comfortable place in easy reach of the excellent nature reserves on the Somerset levels and surrounding areas, this could be what you are looking for!

  It is a very quiet cottage in a picturesque setting. It is comfortable and appears to have everything you would consider needing for a stay. The car parking area is large and secure, shared with the adjacent house where the owners live. Since the photos were taken there is a new wood burning stove that looks more than adequate to warm the cottage on the coldest day. There are lots of brochures and guides available for places both near and far, to help you plan activities whilst you stay in the area. If you don't wish to make use of the cooking facilities, there are plenty of nice pubs/restaurants within a short drive and one with character that would be well worth visiting a short walk away (less than half-mile). Thoroughly recommended! I'd be more than happy to stay here again
