  • "A wonderful, relaxing and idillic country setting."

    The farm grounds are beautiful with horses in the fields in-front of the lodges and a fresh water lake. Plenty of green space for the kids to play outdoors. The actual lodge is spacious with comfortable beds and everything you need. Great location for Millfield school, Glastonbury or the out door pool and outlet shopping in Street. Our dog was also welcome.

  • "We spent a wonderful week at Foxglove and thoroughly enjoyed our stay."

    The home was very spacious and comfortable, particularly the bed. I usually have trouble falling asleep however I was out like a light straight away every night we stayed here. The property is the perfect location for Glastonbury and we even took a walk onto the festival site which is just a short walk up the road. The view from the porch was beautiful and we enjoyed sitting out there listening to nature, even in the rain. I wouldn't want to stay anywhere else if we were in the area again, this place would be very hard to beat.

  • "If you’re looking for luxury, then this is not for you."

    The chalets are utilitarian; clean, with basic, IKEA furniture, at a guess, but adequate. But it’s okay. The chalet is situated on a farm, in the middle of nowhere, but not far from everywhere, Glastonbury being about four miles away and I think, Wells about the same distance. The welcome we received was second to none. Jo is a wonderful host and is an easy and open, person to talk with. The farm is a livery, so if you love horses, then you won’t be disappointed. There is walking, if that is your activity and then there is Petunia, a resident peahen. Would I return after four nights experienced? Too right I will, but for a longer time.

  • "Plus - Lovely property."

    Well situated for everything in Somerset. Plenty of cupboard space for food which isn’t always available in other cottages. Fab bathroom & bedroom. Great views of the hills, fields & horses. Minus - sofa not very comfortable. Sykes had listed that there was a washing machine in the property but apparently it was in an out building which we didn’t find out I until the last day.

  • "Foxglove is a really super and comfortable place to stay."

    The owners are friendly and helpful and made us feel really welcome. The lodge was warm and cozy with everything you could possibly need during your stay and there surroundings were calm and quite beautiful. It was perfectly placed for a peaceful, rural retreat but was close enough to plenty of interesting places to visit with loads of attractions and historical sites nearby. Overall a place we would go back to again and take Charley Dog to add well.

    But small things such as the sharp knives being dangerous to use (broken hilt). The heating in the bathroom not working and the smoke alarm being.super sensitive and impossible to mute as it was 10 feet high or more. It would be perfection in a heavenly setting otherwise.

    The hosts are friendly, welcoming and helpful. The chalet is comfortable and modern, and was cool during the heat. The environment is beautiful- we really enjoyed listening to and watching the buzzards and horses. The carp lake is lovely to sit by, and it's possible to swim in it. The chalet is also well placed as a base for exploring the area. Strongly recommended.

  • "Foxglove is in a beautiful location."

    Relax on the decking or looking out of the window in the main room and watch the horses running around together. Foxglove is spacious and was very clean. On arrival we were left a bottle of "Moon Cider" It's made just around the corner from the accommodation and if I did have a moan about our stay is we were only given 1 bottle. It's a really nice drink and I recommend you go and buy a couple yourself. Jo met us on arrival and was welcoming. If we needed her we could always go around the house or call her mobile. We intend going back and for those intending to go I can tell you the WiFi was fine and good. We took our own firestick and we had no problems playing it. So in summary we had a relaxing stay in beautiful accomodation overlooking lush green hills with horses to keep you company.

    We had excellent stay. Jo and her husband were very helpful and they showed children the horse stables and children enjoyed this very well. The accommodation was brilliant, very clean and very good size. We were four in each chalet and it was very comfortable. Children played all day cricket on the fields in front of the chalet and they even helped out with the barbecue at the pond which was great. We would visit again and it will be great for three families visiting together. Only thing was there was no Wifi, but this was not something we were bothered with.

    We really enjoyed our 4 night stay in Foxglove and were talking about returning even before we left! Our (hyperactive, ex-hunting rescue) spaniel was incredibly calm and relaxed here, given the presence of horses, deer, moles, birds etc! We used a 20 metre lead that we attached to one of the posts on the deck and were able to leave him to safely explore his surroundings (the grounds are not fully enclosed). The property was very clean, very modern, well appointed and as cosy outside as it was inside. We loved sitting out on the deck, the view is lovely, and we found it incredibly relaxing and peaceful. The owners were very friendly. The location is perfect for visiting Glastonbury (town and festival), Bath, and Cheddar Gorge. Highly recommended!
