"No 7 is warm, comfortable and well equipped."
Location is peaceful but just a few minutes from the village facilities and Chew Valley Lake. We had a very enjoyable, relaxing break and would book again.
Thank you for your review so glad you enjoyed your stay in the Chew Valley, we look forward to seeing you again.

"Walls very thin so can easily hear every noise from neighbours."
Water pressure in shower very low. Temperature totally unpredictable and dangerous as fluctuated from scolding to very cold. Could not use overhead shower as it was a dribble of water at best.
Sheets poor quality, perhaps synthetic. Plenty of towels but could also be better quality for the price paid.
Thanks for your review, rain showers are designed to give that experience that is why they also have a hand held shower head, not to be confused with power showers. The hot water is thermostatically controlled to comply with building regulations and do not get beyond a safe temperature to prevent scolding. Bin bags and dog pooh bags are provided, located under the kitchen sink along with dish cloths, sponges, dishwasher tablets, washing up liquid. Instructions on bins and recycling can be found in the welcome folder. Glad you enjoyed the free prosecco, milk tea coffee and biscuits on arrival.

"I've just spent a week staying at No 7 and don't want to leave a bad review but I do think it's important to be honest."
It's a lovely property that's not been open for long and the owners live onsite so are quite responsive. However, I do wonder if they've actually stayed there, for at least a couple of nights?
I got a welcome text the morning we were arriving (nice touch). This contained the first mention of there being horses in the field alongside the property, by the entrance. Our dog is extremely reactive and I wouldn't have booked if I'd known. I talked about the horses to Jon on day 1 and day 2 then thankfully bumped into Sarah on the morning of day 3. She immediately offered to block the horses' access to outside the property during the day which was great! If only this could have happened from the start, it would have removed some unnecessary stress for my dog (and me!).
I was also very annoyed to have booked then receive a confirmation email saying dogs were not allowed on the furniture!!! Not very dog friendly.
3 photos on the listing all showed bath robes hanging next to the hot tub. However be aware there aren't any provided. Jon said that the listing doesn't actually mention them but 3 photos make it easy to not notice this and presume they will be present. Would have brought our own dressing gowns if we'd known. I did suggest that these photos be updated to avoid anyone else making this presumption.
The heating is a law unto itself! Despite Jon saying that having it set at a lower temperature to what it actually is would stop the heating coming on, it doesn't! After a couple of days of sweltering (no exaggeration), I contacted Jon again and he said we needed to actually turn it off! Eventually this did work and it cooled down. Towards the end of our stay I wanted it back on again but couldn't get it to come on!
The taps are all set back to front so if you want hot water, turn it towards blue.
The pressure in the rainforest shower heads isn't the best. My daughter couldn't get the shampoo out of her hair so had to use the handheld one. Also neither shower has any shelving meaning all your toiletries have to be kept on the floor. Annoying for a woman as awe tend to have a few bits when showering!
A lamp would be nice touch in the lounge area as the overhead lights are quite bright.
There's not enough room round the whole of the pool table to take shots without hitting the wall.
The WiFi buffered every day, sometimes more so than others. There didn't seem to be a router in the property so I'm wondering whether there is just one for all 3 that the owners let out?
When the two beds are zipped together to form a double, you can really feel the zip down the middle. A mattress topper would be good.
Also be careful of using the field opposite that is recommended for walking your dog. It is frequented by cows with no warning so keep your eyes peeled.
I do have to say that the property was superbly clean.
Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback. We’re sorry to hear that the property didn’t meet your expectations. We do our best to provide accurate and detailed descriptions, including noting that the property is “set in a sprawling 10-acre estate of fields and horse paddocks.” Since opening, we’ve been fortunate to receive 97% positive reviews, but we understand that experiences can vary, and we appreciate your comments as they help us continue to improve.

"We had a fantastic week at Number7, the weather was very kind to us so we were able to make full use of the hot tub which was great at the end of a days walking and exploring."
The cottage is lovely and bright and has everything you need to prepare a meal, the bed very comfortable.
We had our cocker spaniel with us and found the cottage completely dog safe and dog friendly.
We met the owner and had a nice chat, very friendly and helpful.
We look forward to a return visit.

"Home from a lovely couple of days stay at No."
7. The property is amazing and comfortably accommodated 3 adults, one teenager and a four legged friend for a few nights. The pool table and hot tub were a great hit and the fire pit and bbq would be lovely to use in the nicer weather. Sarah was great to communicate with and nothing was too much trouble. We would love to come back someday to explore the area more
We would love to have you come and stay again with us! Thank you so much for a great review x

"We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at number 7."
The location of the property is ideal - lovely walks around the Chew valley and not far to explore the many other delights of this part of the country.
The property has been well designed to have everything needed for a holiday. We loved the addition of the hot tub - perfect to wind down after a day of exploring. We really appreciated the hospitality of the hosts/owners.
Thank you for staying with us and leaving us a review. We are glad you enjoyed your visit to Somerset and look forward to seeing you again in the future.
