"We were warm and comfortable, splendid old furniture, very kind personable host."
Excellent relaxed stay if you want peaceful togetherness, sounds of owls and steam trains. Not for you if you want noisy/bleeping steamy, kitchen appliances but why would you on holiday ?

"This is a beautiful quiet peaceful location."
The cottage is beautiful and absolutely sufficiently big enough for two people and a pooch. The dining room table would be the only thing I found hard to use comfortably as the sides slopes down making it hard to eat and rest your elbows on while chatting at the table as you do when on holiday.
The bed, settee and seating area was very comfortable. Plenty area outside to sit and watch the magnificent sunsets.
Would highly recommend and would love to go back again one day.
Thanks you Brenda.

"What a lovely cottage."
Set in beautiful countryside with a huge garden. Everything we needed for a restful week. The railway was an added bonus
well worth a ride we went to Minehead for the day.
Brenda the owner and Phoebe her little dog were very welcoming.

"Had a lovely break away here."
When we arrived the host thought we were a day early, we weren't, but the property was ready for us and she was fine. It was a lovely setting, and we had great weather.Her dog, pheobe, became our new friend, waiting for us every morning with her toy to play with. The local roads are quite narrow, but drive carefully and you will be fine. Will definitely consider going again in the future. The locals at the near by pub were welcoming and made us feel at home.

"We very much enjoyed our stay at Little Barton and great for the dog."
Lovely location, setting and hostess. Not a criticism but the interior could do with a bit of up dating.- perhaps a new sofa and upgrading of the kitchen. Will happily recommend to others.

"A lovely spot to stay especially with a dog."
The spacious grounds were a great bonus, but the narrow lanes to the cottage are not for the faint hearted. Pleasant walk along the track to the station, where you can enjoy a cream tea in the garden, or take a steam train ride with your dog (£3 return for the dog). I can recommend .the nearby Rocking Horse for lunch. My dog enjoyed the doggy ice cream on the hot day we visited. Comfortable cottage and lovely holiday.. .

"Little Barton is set in an idyllic spot!"
We were blessed with good weather most of the time, and were able to sit out every day. In fact, we parked the car when we arrived, and didn't use it again until we left...
Brenda made us very welcome, while also being unobtrusive, and we had several visits (and doggy kisses) from Phoebe, and eventually even from shy Lottie!
The deck overlooking the river and dell is wonderful, but the view from the cottage itself is pretty special, too. We saw woodpeckers, rabbits, and pheasants in the garden, and loved the steam trains passing by on the 4 days that they ran.
The cottage itself was good, and plenty warm enough when the weather cooled. We would definitely consider returning if the cottage is let in future years. Thank you Brenda for a lovely, restful break (and for the apples from your tree), and thank you Phoebe for all of your affection toward us!
Fabulous to hear you had such a wonderful time and even managed to enjoy some beautiful weather. It certainly sounds like you left with some amazing memories. Thank you for such lovely feedback and we look forward to welcoming you back in the future. Best Wishes, Hideaways. Property Owner

"The property wasn't as good as what is was advertised, it wasn't very clean with dirt and dust in places."
The TV was very basic with no freeview at all, I took my own dvd player which I was glad I did. The shower had no power, so the water was very slow on coming out. I couldn't leave the door open (it was very hot in the living room) as there dog would come in and eat my dogs food. There was only one walk you could do if you didn't want to drive anywhere, but my dog Meg had to be on the lead as it was right next to the railway line. The only good thing about the place was the garden as it was lovely and Meg loved running around it. I ended up leaving a day early as it was very uncomfortable staying in the cottage, as it is VERY small.
Thank you for your feedback, with regards to your stay at Little Barton. I'm sorry to hear your stay wasn't up to our usual high standards. Did you get in touch with the owner, so she could have come over to rectify anything you where not happy with?. We do state the cottage is by a railway line, which is a steam railway and isn't used very much. I will pass on your comments to the owner for review. Property Owner

Verdant tranquility sited to catch the sun of an evening after a day exploring and with the added distinctiveness of the heritage railway chugging past in the day. A great base to explore the Quantocks or Exmoor or up northwards to the coast.
