“Lovely cottage, very clean and ...”

Lovely cottage, very clean and comfort.

Lovely cottage, very clean and comfort. The homemade cake from the owners, who were easy to get hold of, was just delicious.

“Cheddar is always an amazing place ...”

Cheddar is always an amazing place to visit and this cottage is well located for the local pubs and fantastic walks. Parking is a challenge but we managed to get both cars parked close by. Village shops are a bit further away but still walkable for us and we know the area well. Also explored Rowberry Warren this time which is well worth the uphill walk. The house was big enough for our family of 6 adults.

“Strawberry Rose is simply a gem. It ...”

Strawberry Rose is simply a gem. It is one of most charming cottages we have ever stayed in. It is extremely well equipped and so close to the Cheddar Gorge & caves, we walked everywhere! There are several restaurants, tea houses, shops only 5-10 min away but the cottage is in a very peaceful location. We loved the little garden, very private and the best place to start a sunny day! Great power shower on the 1st floor and modern bathrooms. It simply feels like "home" from the moment you enter. Plenty of dvds, books, boardgames, very nice touch.The welcome hamper was adorable, very caring owners. We will definitely be back.

“Lovely cosy yet roomy cottage. We ...”

Lovely cosy yet roomy cottage. We were greeted with a really lovely welcome pack which was great after a long drive. Beds were lovely and comfortable so everyone slept really well. Local pub just a stone's throw from the cottage, but a short 5min walk takes you right into the middle of the gorge with may pubs tea rooms and eateries as well. Location is great - a short drive 15-20mins takes you to some beautiful beaches great for dog walking. The owners were very easy to contact and happy to help with anything you need. Would thoroughly recommend booking this cottage.

Cottage just as described, but be prepared for low ceilings (there are plenty of ‘mind your head’ signs but still managed to bump lol). Lovely welcome pack on arrival and everything we needed for a comfortable stay.

“Cosy cottage in beautiful area”

We had a wonderful pre-Christmas break in Cheddar staying at Strawberry Rose Cottage. The house in warm and welcoming, with everything you need and is just 5 minutes walk from the famous Cheddar Caves. A highchair and travelcot were available for my daughters baby and there were dog chews ready for our dog on arrival. Andy, the host, is very helpful and has a lot of local knowledge. Out and about, Cheddar has lots of pubs, serving good food and everywhere we went we recieved a friendly welcome. One thing that might be helpful to know is that dogs are not allowed upstairs in the house.

“We arrived at Strawberry Rose ...”

We arrived at Strawberry Rose Cottage and was surprised by the welcoming feel we were greeted with a lovely home baked cake, and also a selection of local cider we also were given ample coffee and tea and also milk in the fridge so we could relax immediately after a long journey. The cottage has a very warm and homely feel, we have 3 children and a 6 month old baby and we had ample space.The cottage has all the facilities needed to make your stay home from home, the owners too are very accommodating and only too happy to help.The cottage is set right next to the gorge and the scenery is nothing short of spectacular, there are many shops including the caves that are within walking distance there are also many local inns/pubs that are very welcoming and serve great food etc The cottage is also right next to Mendip hills where again the views are spectacular. All in all we had a great stay in Strawberry Rose Cottage and wouldn't hesitate to re-book

About the location

CHEDDAR

Wells 9 miles; Weston-super-Mare 12 miles.

The large Somerset village of Cheddar is a major tourist destination on the edge of the Mendip Hills, renowned for SSSI Cheddar Gorge, the largest gorge in Britain, which includes several show caves such as Gough’s Cave, through which Britain’s biggest underground river runs. The Cheddar area is unique; apart from the chasm, the Cheddar Gorge cliffs are Britain’s highest inland limestone craggs and create a spectacular sight. The village gave its name to Cheddar cheese and has also been a centre for strawberry growing, the crop being transported on the railway, which now provides a fabulous cycle path. Cyclists will also enjoy the picturesque paths that cross the Somerset Levels, while Wells - the country’s smallest city, with it’s beautiful cathedral, is perfect for culture lovers. Visit the ancient town of Glastonbury, well known for its annual music festival and connections to all things mystical. Alternatively, the scenic Somerset Coast and Exmoor National Park are both easily accessible, truly spoiling you for choice of how to spend your holiday!
