Mr Penfold October 2020

“Overall properly was fine.”

unfortunately my wife has mobility problems and the gravel path and low bed were a problem.

Mrs Hardy September 2020

“Comfortable and relaxing accommodation, ideal to walk dog round the field and to have a small enclosed garden to the bungalow, owners extremely helpful with local areas to visit and eat.”

Cider farm (restaurant/takeaway)and local pub short walking distance. Close to m5 for travel to other areas.

- Mrs Hardy, September 2020
Mr Martin August 2020

“Lovely holiday cottage in the Somerset Levels.”

Convenient to get onto the M5 for travelling further afield, but with so many attractions in the local area don't have travel far. Cottage is well provisioned (only thing that would have been nice is a couple of extra bowls) and has a lovely self contained garden area overlooking a field and small orchard.

- Mr Martin, August 2020
Mrs Hollingworth July 2020

“We stayed in this cottage for 2 weeks (2 adults and 1 dog).”

It was brilliant as a base for going out and about. The cottage was just as described. Comfortable sitting area, large bathroom, double bedroom and an outdoor seating area. But it was the little things (that you may have forgotten) such as tea towels, washing up liquid, bin bags etc that were already there. Ruth and Andrew were brilliant. Would definitely recommend this property.

Miss Fellows December 2019

“I loved this place.”

Owners were very nice but not intrusive. We chose December to get away from the usual hustle and bustle of Christmas, thinking it maybe cold we took hot water bottles etc. There was no need what so ever, Ruth had put heating on for us for when we got there and i can honestly say we did not have the heating on for 4 nights. Whether it is because of it been a new build, it was so warm, even walking around bare foot. I think the holiday company need to hype these properties more. There was little touches like a welcome pack, all cleaning utensils provided, in the kitchen there was there was washing up liquid, scourers, cling film, foil, even shopping bags! Along with tea, coffee and sugar. Tea towels and towels provided, hand washes.... all these things help. I would highly recommend for couples, or if you have 1 or 2 smaller children and definitely if you have a dog. Very pet friendly.

“It would have been helpful for more instructions on use of cooker and labelling of some sockets; to fixed appliances.”

A pair of scissors would have been handy. Otherwise a very enjoyable holiday, would highly recommend.

“Had a lovely few days away, home from home our fur babies first holiday.”

The owners were very friendly and on hand if needed. It was a very nice gesture to leave a bottle of wine and some milk in the fridge.
