Previous visitors' comments about Idlers Cottage:
Cottage is lovely, perfect setting to do a lot of touring and many attractions close at hand - excellent. Would recommend property to friends and family.
Mrs Gearing, Fareham, April 2012
Our holiday was very relaxing. The cottage was very private and we had our own private patio area that was not overlooked. We loved the whole South Petherton experience. A very friendly village, we felt very much part of the community . We loved the local pub, lovely pub grub and not expensive, very good value for money. We were made very welcome, very good customer service. Thumbs up all round.
Mr Bamford, Llanon, October 2011
The cottage was well situated to explore the surrounding places of interest of which there are many. The village of South Petherton is delightful with a very friendly atmosphere. The owners were welcoming but not intrusive.
