“An excellent cottage all round and in an ideal location.”

If we were to mention one thing it would just be that the sofa was a little uncomfortable .

“We would have preferred a larger fridge, and a freezer.”

During the pandemic we are having food deliveries weekly to avoid going into shops, but the lack of a freezer and a very small fridge made this difficult. More mugs and cutlery are required to enable full use to be made of the dishwasher please. Otherwise no complaints.

Mr Stringer September 2020

“My wife has restricted mobility so the Walk-In Shower and the space to move around was absolutely perfect.”

The milk, scones & jam on arrival was most welcomed and a nice touch.

Mrs Courcha March 2020

“I couldn't have asked for a better place to stay.”

Fully recommend this wonderful cottage. Jane not only catered for me and my husband, she also made sure our dog had everything too. The added bonus for me were the horses on site. Thank you.

Mr Rich January 2020

“We had a great stay at Mendip Cottage.”

It is very well equipped with modern appliances. We particularly liked the kitchen facilities and wet room. The hosts were very welcoming and helpful. We highly recommend staying here if you want to explore the Mendips and surrounding area.
