• "Fantastic place, our second stay this year."

  Home from home with kitchen utensils etc. would definitely recommend. Only problem is cannot walk anywhere from it due to no pathways. Hoping there is a hidden field wall somewhere we can find when it’s a bit drier

• "A very conformable stay."

  The cabin was nice and warm on arrival. Very well equipped ideal for a family stay. Nice hot water and good pressure. Good internet and phone signal. Very comfortable bed, Great nights sleep all week. The welcome pack and flowers on the table was a nice touch (thank you ) Although fairly close to the airport flight path we were not affected by aircraft noise at all. In fact a Great location only 15 minutes to Bristol airport. The only negative point was ,at night time ,it was very dark although there is an outside light,it does not illuminate the path from the cabin to the driveway . I almost fell down the steps as they it was so dark at night. If a solar panelled light could be installed to the corner of the cabin, that would be a wise move otherwise an accident will occur. Thank you for a Very relaxing and comfortable weeks break. John and Helen

• "What a lovely cabin, we arrived on the 28th December and we walked into a warm cosy cabin the Christmas tree was lit and we couldn’t of asked for a more warmer welcome!"

  The accommodation is spacious and very clean. The welcome pack was lovely and they have literally thought of everything you could possibly need which was brilliant as we wanted to visit the local butcher and do some cooking. The information pack was clear and had lots of info on places to visit. The location of the cabin was perfect for getting around and there is so many things to do and place to dine in the surrounding areas would highly recommend a visit to the wells market and cathedral and Cheddar. I will say if you wanted to walk to the local pub it could be a little dangerous as no actual pathway but we didn’t try out the golf club which could be an option but for us this was a good thing as wanted to recover from Christmas anyway lol. The hosts are fantastic as due to heavy rain our lights went out and within minutes David was with us to get the problem sorted out. My only issue which isn’t a big thing it just would just of been great for me being lazy in the morning if there was a fenced in area we could just let the dog out and if we return in the summer which we would like to do we wouldn’t have to worry about the patio doors being open and him running off. A great stay and a great place would highly recommend a stay here!

  Everything I needed was here and Amanda and David were very kind and helpful when I was poorly.

• "We had a lovely stay at Down the Rabbit Hole."

  The welcome pack was the best we've ever had, so thankyou Samantha and David! The location is perfect and we had some lovely days out, also great local pubs nearby. There are a couple of suggestions l would like to make for further guests. A grab rail for the bath or at very least a nonslip rubber mat and secondly there is only one sofa so if there were more than 3 guests they would struggle to find comfortable seating. The beds were extremely comfy! Thanks again for welcoming us

  So glad you enjoyed your stay. There are extra chairs in the cabin to use as extra seating but we will definitely see if a second small sofa could be feasible. Thanks for your comments about the welcome pack and beds. Property Owner

• "We had a lovely break in Somerset at Down the Rabbit Hole."

  It was one of the hottest weeks of the year but the ceiling fans helped to keep the property cool. The owners, Amanda and David, were very quick to respond to any queries and provided a lovely welcome pack with local goodies. The property is well situated for exploring Somerset and close to local amenities. I thoroughly recommend it.

  So kind of you to take the time to write an appreciative review for us. We put a lot of effort into the cabin with the finishing touches like the welcome pack with the wine and the local goodies. Love happy guests Property Owner

• "We had a lovely week in Down the Rabbit Hole."

  The cabin had everything needed for our stay and our children loved the big field to play on. Somerset is a beautiful part of the country and there is so much to see and do easily accessed from the cabin.

  So pleased you enjoyed the log cabin. Sometimes the simplest games played together in the field make a holiday special. We obviously know Somerset is a fantastic part of the country and to discover what it offers for the first time must be fun. Thank you so much for writing the review. Property Owner

• "We had a lovely week in a well equipped and maintained cabin, in a great setting."

  Fantastic welcome pack was a lovely surprise on arrival. Enjoyed watching the deer and playing rounders on the field. Nice quiet rural location with a great open-plan social space for our party to spend time together. We met our host once during our stay, really friendly and helpful but left us alone to enjoy our holiday whilst making sure we knew how to contact them if we had any problems (we didn’t). Would highly recommend.

  Hi Nicola. thank you for your description of our log cabin and review. We are so happy that you had a fun/comfortable stay!....Everything we aim for! Property Owner

• "Down the Rabbit Hole is a lovely cabin in a very nice field with a great view of the sunsets each evening."

  We took some great pictures. The cabin was very clean and well equipped with all you need, lots of cups plates and cutlery etc. Beds were very comfortable too, ceiling fans in all rooms, nice touch. Well equipped all round. The one thing I would like to mention is there were no towel rails in the bathrooms also the bath could do with a grab rail. All in all we had a lovely two weeks and I would recommend it to anyone that wants a holiday within about 20/30 minutes of the seaside and most other venues.

  Hi there Linda, thank you for the review. those sunsets can be very beautiful there from the large patio. We have addressed the grab rail idea as others have mentioned this and there is on now for future guests. We haven't put up towel rails because we have the two towel hooks by the showers. We will certainly see what we can do about that. Property Owner

• "We had a wonderful stay and the glorious weather was such a bonus to appreciate the beautiful setting of Down The Rabbit Hole."

  We appreciated the eclectic style and attention to detail - I think there is everything there you could possibly need for a great holiday - with many thoughtful additions such as umbrellas, a pack of toothbrushes/razors in case you forgot to pack them. We loved watching the planes coming and going from Bristol airport (I will add they were in the distance and not over-head so there was no noise pollution). Down The Rabbit Hole is well positioned for the coast and so many tourist attractions. There were no negatives for us at all - the only things I would say are - it would be worth mentioning in the details there is a ramp/walkway as well as the couple of steps up to the cabin (if you have restricted mobility). Although completely flat inside there is a threshold to the front and patio door entrances so not suitable for a wheelchair. The fridge door tends to swing back and hit the wall and I noticed black paint marks on the wall and missing paint where the fridge catches the wall (top left corner) - maybe helpful to save your fridge by sticking a small rubber protector to the wall to prevent further damage. We loved the welcome pack (thank you for providing) - the yogurt would probably have been better in the fridge than in the hamper as it was a really hot day and had been sat there for quite a few hours before we arrived. Those comments are just to be helpful as we absolutely loved our stay and would have liked to stay longer - but it was not available so we are sat inside another holiday cottage writing this review. We would have no hesitation in returning and recommending to others.

  Hi there Christopher and fellow guests. A heart warming review to receive...thank you so much. We do always put the yoghurt/wine etc in the fridge now. A really practical suggestion! Noted about the fridge catching..that will save us painting the wall all the time. Will also mention the ramp in the description, thanks for that recommendation. Would be great to have you back when we have the availability! Property Owner

  Yes, that March weather can certainly be changeable! That's why the indoor space at the log cabin is really important too we think.

  There were 6 of us (plus one dog) and the cabin was the perfect size. It was fitted out to a very high standard and the hosts really had thought of everything, The Christmas tree and welcome hamper were a lovely touch. It was ideally situated to explore the area and provided a lovely cosy base to return to after a day hill or beach walking! I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend the property and definitely hope to return.

  Choosing the right place is so important at that special time of year, so we are really thrilled that you all had a wonderful time. A log cabin always looks brilliant with a real decorated tree during the festive period. Please come back if ever you stay in North Somerset again. Property Owner

• "Perfect stay, one of the comfiest and best equipped cottages we've ever stayed in."

  Beautifully finished, with lots of thought and attention to detail. The cabin demonstrated an excellent use of space. It really felt like a home from home. Lots of great open space for kids, dogs and adults alike. It's a great location, and perfect base for exploring the delights of the local area, of which there are many all within easy access. You can stay here and enjoy the local area without being totally reliant on a car as there are plenty of walks and public paths. The owners were brilliant, very helpful with any queries we had and prompt to reply. Thoughtful touches like the welcome hamper were much appreciated and made a wonderful start to our stay. Highly recommend for the cabin itself, the owners attention to detail and care of their guests and also the local area which has lots to offer. Will definitely come back when we are next in the area. Many thanks.

  Very comfortable. Lots of cutlery, plates etc. The garden is massive, which Chester loved, although not secure, but we took a stake and long lead. We saw deer & rabbits in the garden. Lots of places to visit near by. The Plough & Old Inn are dog friendly, lovely food. We went with friends and had plenty of room. Loved the picnic hamper from the hosts, who were very friendly.

  The property has everything you need and more. Considerate furnishing, the most amount of utensils (high quality too) I think I've ever seen in a 'short term' rental. Beds/sofa all very comfortable. Welcome hamper, superb information book. The views looking out to the field is lovely. Area wise its great too- easy to get to family parks, the beach, Bristol if needed. We loved it.

  Thank you so much for your brilliant review about the log cabin. It was a pleasure to have your family to stay. It is always rewarding when a family/friends gather together at Down the Rabbit Hole and have a good holiday.

We would love to see you all again, sitting under the big old Oak tree together in the field. Property Owner

  The field was a gift for the kids to just run and play and the cortège itself was spacious, stylish and clean with equipped with everything. The owner even seen we had bought a paddling pool (visited during august heatwave) so offered to fill it up and even went out of his way to buy us a gazebo to use, not to mention the nice welcome hamper. Would definitely book again. First time in something like this and first time using Sykes website

  Hello there to you and your family. We really enjoyed having you to stay because as a family group on holiday you all seemed to have fun together and get into the spirit of a log cabin holiday in the countryside. Loved your mini badminton "court' and the fact that you used the space in the field in front of the cabin to enjoy the outdoors. You stayed in one of the hottest weeks we have ever know, so glad the gazebo helped!! That is also when the fans can cool you down in the cabin on every ceiling in the rooms. Thank you for the beautiful card you left us, such a kind thing to do and glad you enjoyed the Rabbit Hole Welcome Pack......please come back one day!! Property Owner

• "We were very disappointed."

  Although the place was clean, it wasn't comfortable. A hotchpotch of ill matching utensils and crockery, and nowhere in the bathrooms to put our stuff. There were a million flies and no attempt made to deter them. However, we were grateful for the ceiling fans. Also no secure WIFI. The "guide" indicated that there were instructions for the appliances at the back. Well I never found them. I understand that the owner is new to the business, so my criticism is intended to be constructive.

  Dear Guest. We feel devastated as hosts of our lovely log cabin that you seemed unable to enjoy its eclectic atmosphere. My other guests have often said how much they have appreciated the collections of retro china and different utensils and personal touches that I spend many hours sourcing. Unfortunately, sets of Ikea plates and packs of supermarket cutlery are not my equipment choices. This is a countryside log cabin and not a genereric, shiny mobile home that looks exactly the same as every other mobile home on a big site. We put thought and care into Down the Rabbit Hole and obviously on this occasion it was not to your taste. Pleasing everyone is difficult of course. I noticed you haven't mentioned about the generous welcome pack? Very detailed instructions are left for everything, so understanding why brochures for appliances were also required is a little mystifying. There is a large bathroom cabinet and shelves in the bathrooms. We will add to this if you felt it was insufficient of course. Your discomfort felt is baffling to us as some guests have even said they could happily live in the cabin, watching the wildlife go by. Property Owner
