The additional mowed field adjacent to the property was a bonus. Great location with easy access to many places of interest. It's such a lovely place to relax with all the family. A great place to holiday!

Large field was a big bonus and the hot tube and games room big favourites particularly as the weather was not great. Sarah was very attentive and helpful and the hamper was excellent. All in all a great place and a great holiday.

En-suite bedrooms are a must for us and those facilities were first class. The owners were extremely helpful and we appreciated the lovely welcome pack. Although it is near a busy road, we were never aware of any traffic noise.

It was well equipped, comfortable and perfect for the 8 of us. The hot tub and sauna were great and there was plenty of room to relax in the games room, dining room or at the dinner table. Would definitely recommend this property and would love to visit again in the future.

We really enjoyed our stay here, communication before and during the break was brill and we loved the hot tub and sauna. The kids and dogs loved the field attached and helped keep them occupied.

All the usual good points such as cleanliness, equipment, comfort and location were there in abundance but Sarah and Marco go the extra mile. The welcome hamper was very generous and useful, they are so friendly and efficient and although they were on site doing maintenance to the other barn they were only obvious to us when we needed them. We had a couple of minor issues which were rectified immediately. The best thing we noticed was the lack of 'dos and don'ts' which was pretty unique. We are in our 10th year of these get togethers (in fact 4 times a year now) and this is up there with our favourites and we hope to return. Thank you Sarah and Marco.

My family and I had a wonderful Christmas, which was made even better with the decorations and tree that were up when we arrived. The property is stunning and very clean, with all facilities that you would need. Visited Dunster Castle, drove to Minehead for some shopping and would recommend catching the steam train from Washford Station for a relaxing afternoon trip. Thoroughly enjoyed by all, will hopefully be back soon!

Miss Hoy, December 2018
“The Lindhay provided safe and secure gardens for the children to play outdoors as the latch to open gates was placed at adult height, thus making it difficult for children to press the latch.”

The house is really modern and spacious and with 2 families joining the Grandparents, you didn’t feel cramped. There’s a good selection of walks to take from the property, especially if you have a dog. The most enjoyable walk was the 40 minute amble to Watchet Harbour following the railway track Dogs and children loved it! So did the adults. Having a hot tub and sauna so close to the house was another bonus, less shivering, or enduring cold winds, especially when you holiday in the autumn/winter months!. There’s lots to discover in this area, especially Dunster Castle that was operating a timed tour of the “house” during the winter months....something they’ve just introduced. One word of caution, finding the property in the dark, in the winter months (we did November) was challenging as lighting/ highlighting the entrance to The Linhay on the A39 was difficult. Thankfully we arrived at 3pm which allowed us a modicum of era.........I did have to stand in the access to the holiday home with a powerful torch to help late arrivals......especially our family. SatNav only gives the area it’s in, but not the actual location. Perhaps the photo of The Linhay could be updated to give a more accurate representation of the property/location, thus giving new occupants a visual to look-out for. Sarah, the owner is friendly and very helpful, and nothing is too much trouble if something isn’t quite right. In all, a perfect stay at a perfect house in a perfect location.

Mrs Howe, November 2018
“A beautiful four bedroom four eusuite cottage with bags of space so that you have a very enjoyable stay.”

We very must enjoyed the games room and the hot tub. Will definitely come back again next year.

Very spacious property, spotless and beautifully decorated. Well equipped with everything you could need and a gorgeous hamper of locally sourced products was a lovely treat on our arrival! The kids loved the games room and of course the WiFi. The hot tub and sauna are fantastic - hot tub checked twice a day by the owners and nothing was too much trouble. Will definitely be back.

Ms Mcque, September 2018
“Family holiday of four generation of 7 months baby to great grand mother of 84 years old in a nice size family home with all necessary facilities available you could ask for.”

Location was ideal to explore various areas of the county or beyond and upon return of journey relax by using the sauna or hot tub or both to relax the mind and body.

This cottage is so beautiful - the owner is lovely, she showed us around and was very welcoming. She gave us a our privacy throughout the weekend. The hot tub is fantastic - so big and really good temperatures. The cottage is much bigger than expected, the rooms are seperated within two wings of the cottage. Every room was very nice and clean. We had the best time here, and it made our 4 hour journey from London well worth it! And for a brilliant price too! We will definitely be back!
