"A lovely, comfortable, home away from home!"
The kitchen had everything we wanted (and more!), the beds we’re comfortable and the whole cottage was beautifully decorated. We loved Shepherd’s Cottage and will definitely look to booking again.

"Lovely week at Shepherds Cottage."
Everything there was good (had to clean BBQ but no big deal). Dulverton a short walk away and has everything you need. Just watch out for leaving the property - high hedge - get someone to guide you out - again not a big deal. The dog loved it (although picked up a few ticks in the area. Tick remover needed - can buy in town). Overall - excellent week.

"We had a good week at Shepherds Cottage near Dulverton."
The house was warm and comfortable. There were some issues that need attention however. First of all, the drive is very narrow and visibility of traffic from Dulverton is obscured by a hedge. If the hedge cannot be cut back, a pair of angled mirrors on the wall opposite are really essential. My wife and I occupied the downstairs bedroom and bathroom. That facility is separated from the main lounge by a door with clear glass. A curtain on the door would give some necessary privacy. Finally, a single role of toilet paper per bathroom is not adequate for a week!
Thank you for taking the time to complete your feedback. We appreciate that visibility is difficult,the hedge is trimmed but we will look into whether the angled mirrors might help. We don't feel that a curtain would work on the glass door leading into the corridor to the bedroom and bathroom but we will look to put some opaque covering on the glass. We provide a toilet roll in each bathroom for your arrival, as it is a self catering property, additional toilet rolls can be purchased from a nearby supermarket. Property Owner

"We absolutely loved our stay at Shepherds Cottage."
The cottage itself is beautiful and so cosy. Our visit was during the colder season, so we did not make use of the garden but we can imagine what a blissful holiday stay it would be all year round and look forward to booking again in the summer too. We didn’t want to leave! The kitchen is very well equipped, the bedrooms very nicely made up, the dining and snug area a perfect place to lounge around. We visited the Bridge pub for dinner in the evening and the food was lovely. We went with our 2 dogs and there are ample scenic walks to take along the river. A 10/10 stay and cannot wait to come back!
Thank you so much Kim for the great review. I’m so pleased you had a lovely time. Property Owner

"We enjoyed our week - the cottage is extremely comfortable and very well equipped."
Minor concerns were the road noise and the limited area in which to turn a car. More serious is when driving out of the entrance you cannot see what is coming until you are well out into a busy road. Perhaps not an issue for those who have someone to guide them out but my husband is partially sighted.
Thank you for your feedback. We have never found the road or the driveway to be a problem for other guests and 3 cars can fit on the drive so turning should not be an issue. Although like most properties the house is on a road, Dulverton is a very sleepy village. Property Owner

"Lovely comfortable well equipped cottage with beautiful garden in a great location for visiting Devon and Somerset."
A welcome tray on arrival would be a nice addition, so guests could have a cup of tea when they arrive after a long journey.

"Very comfortable cottage with everything we needed for our stay."
Dulverton has good shops and eating places and is a good centre for exploring Exmoor.
We should have liked some larger bowls as the plates were too flat for ‘wet’ pasta sauces etc and the bowls provided better for puddings and cereals…. A very minor point and more of a reflection on our eating habits than anything else…
Thank you for your feedback your comments have been taken on board. Property Owner

"Wonderful cottage very clean and a lovely log fire for cosy nights."
Layout suited us but if 2 separate families lower bathroom did not offer privacy as open plan.
Beds very comfy good selection of DVD’s offered for all ages.
Good location 10 min walk to Dulverton. Loved Tarr steps…the Sunday lunches looked huge!
Wimbleball lake great for walking. Lyndon Lynmouth very enjoyable even in inclement weather.
Would definately revisit this cottage and recommend to family and friends.

"Clean cottage lovely and warm great location 10 minutes to shops and pub, only recommendation is a door on the down stairs shower room/toilet that serves a twin bedroom we had 2 teen age boys different families and couldn’t really use the toilet or shower."
The first floor twin beds very poor quality and headboard and legs coming apart. Definitely will stay again.
Thank you for taking the time to complete your feedback. All feedback is taken very seriously and we have taken your comments on board. The twin beds will be fixed. Aside from this we are glad that you enjoyed your stay at the cottage and its lovely location and look forward to welcoming you again in the future. Property Owner

"The property was filthy."
. mess marks down the toilet pan, windows wouldn’t close, log fire still left with previous client debris, blinds broken, vacuum cleaner dint work, in fact spat out so much dirt it set the fire alarms off. We had unexpected visitors who knew we were out, but came back to find them on the property. I filed a complaint and have had no acknowledgment. The cottage is lovely, but not maintained, and this is your business!
Thank you for your feedback, the issues have been taken up with the caretaker, the visitor at the property was the gardener. We are sorry you did not contact us during your stay we hopefully could have addressed these issues straight away for you. Property Owner

The cottage was spacious and cosy. However it could have been a bit cleaner and upstairs the bathroom mirror was not securely attached and one of the blinds in the master bedroom was broken.
Thank you for taking the time to leave your feedback and we are really pleased to hear that you enjoyed your stay at Shepherds Cottage. The owner is aware of your review and the points have raised will be attended to. Property Owner
