    Very quiet location. A torch is needed if venturing out on foot after dark since there are no streetlights.

  • "We had a nice peaceful stay at Glebe Lodge."

    The cottage is very well equipped with everything you need. On a personal level I found the bed very uncomfortable and the sofa sunk so low I struggled to get up. My husband got stuck in the sofa and could only sit in the armchair. The cottage is advertised as dog friendly but there was no where for our dog to run we had to take him to a park 4 miles away in Wells.The host Jenny was very kind and helpful and gave us lots of information. The welcome pack was very nice.

    Your comments are noted. Thank you for staying with me. Property Owner

  • "Can't thank Jenny enough for making me feel so welcome - there is not a single thing that she hasn't thought of, in terms of what you might forget to pack, and what you'd appreciate to make you feel right at home (including a bottle of locally produced wine!"

    ). Always a bonus to be able to do laundry (even if you'd rather be enjoying the countryside). Just a cosy home from home, where you can enjoy glorious sunsets and see so many stars at night! A little about the village: you'll most likely be driving, but the (cash only) 126 bus service stops right at the bottom of the hill where the cottage is situated. It runs throughout the day, but stops around teatime and there are no Sunday buses, so please bear that in mind if you're needing buses. I was able to get a taxi from Wells for £14. You might appreciate that if you're arriving after dark, as it's country roads with no street lighting (or pavements for that matter). Having said that, it was perfectly fine going for walks, so long as you stick to the outside bend of the road. You can also get to Cheddar Gorge very easily on the bus, and it might be an idea to do so a) because it really is gorge-ous (sorry! Couldn't resist) and b) to show demand for a bus service facing cuts (a lot of folk seem to depend upon it). You can get off at the Tween Town stop, which is right at the base of the Gorge. There is also a trespass shop there if you need any equipment etc. Just keep an eye on the time for your return bus! I got the half 12ish bus there and half 4ish bus back and that was ample time. Westbury-sub-Mendip also has a small village shop (open limited hours at the weekend) including a post office (handy for cash withdrawals) and a restaurant/pub. And a hairdressers if you're so inclined. Everything you need really. Anything else you should be able to readily get in Wells.

    I think it would be nice to have a small sofa to sit on so people can sit together. Also we felt a little uncomfortable about opening the curtains in the morning when we were in our pj’s as the owners upstairs windows look straight into the cottages windows. Maybe some sort of blind or Net / voile curtains. The long curtains in the living area do not meet when closed therefore letting light in which disturbed our elderly dog at night. We had to peg them together.

    Thank you for your valued comment and I have now purchased a beautiful two seater sofa and angled it so as to make the sitting area more private from anyone outside . The curtains all meet together now which also add privacy for my more sensitive customers and their dogs.

Comfortably furnished and well equipped, this cottage offers couples an attractive and convenient holiday base in a most picturesque part of Somerset.

The open plan living area provides light and airy accommodation with a twin bedroom.

Doors from the sitting room open out onto a small, enclosed private patio complete with garden furniture, while a short stroll takes you down to the village shop and pub with local footpaths stretching in all directions.

There's plenty to see within a short drive, including the stunning Cheddar Gorge as well as the caves and attractions at Wookey Hole.

Time your visit right in November to attend an evening event held by the local Somerset Carnival Clubs, which showcases a parade of carnival floats, and attracts 1000’s of people each year.

Alternatively, visit the charming medieval market city of Wells, named after the springs which still bubble up today in the grounds of the beautiful cathedral.

A little further afield you can spend the day touring the Somerset Levels, which offer an abundance of wildlife and pretty villages, or head to mystical Glastonbury, home to the annual Glastonbury Festival, approximately seven miles from Glebe Lodge, and a fantastic selection of shops, including crystal shops, Reiki treatments, the Chalice Well and a famous Tor boasting the legend of King Arthur.

A delightful cottage offering a convenient Somerset village holiday base at any time of the year.
