We had a lovely holiday at Croft ; a charming cottage in a beautiful tranquil setting.

We had a lovely holiday at Croft ; a charming cottage in a beautiful tranquil setting. There are many interesting places to visit within easy reach , and a good choice of places to dine out. The owners are close by if you have any queries, and are very helpful. We attended Priddy folk festival during our stay which was excellent and within easy reach.

“Had a lovely time at Croft Cottage ...”

Had a lovely time at Croft Cottage and the owners were lovely and helpful. It was a little cold and so would benefit from a fire or something in the front room and bedrooms to heat better and supply blankets for those chilly nights. The barbecue hut was great too and a fabulous asset to the holiday. Would definitely come back. Kids loved it too.

“Lovely welcome from the owners.”

Lovely welcome from the owners. They even decorated the property for our Christmas stay and provided extra dishes etc. Might be better not to advertise the property as having WiFi, as it was very intermittent. Otherwise a wonderful stay. Thank you

“We had a great holiday in this ...”

We had a great holiday in this cottage, perfect for a family of four, the children loved the mezzanine bedroom. We found the cottage cosy and comfortable, the owners were very helpful with their local knowledge. The cottage is perfectly placed for exploring places in interest, everything we needed was within 20 miles, Wells, Cheddar, Street, Glastonbury and the beach at WSM. Would definitely use this cottage again.

About the location

GURNEY SLADE AND BINEGAR

Shepton Mallet 4 miles.

The twin Somerset villages of Gurney Slade and Binegar can be found just four miles north of Shepton Mallet nestling on the eastern edge of the Mendip Hills, an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty. Well served by local inns and a well-stocked village shop and Post Office, the area also abounds in lovely walks which criss-cross the lush countryside. The nearby historic town of Shepton Mallet is a delightful mixture of old and new, with some wonderful old architecture and a weekly market, plus a variety of shops, pubs and eateries. This is a beautiful landscape, with unique places to visit and activities to suit everyone. The Royal Bath and West Showground, just south of Shepton Mallet is the site of one of Britain's major agricultural shows, held here annually in May/June, whilst many other events are staged regularly throughout the year. The area offers a superb touring base with an easy drive to Wells, Glastonbury and Bath, and many family attractions including Cheddar Gorge, Wookey Hole Caves and East Somerset Railway are all also within a 45-minute drive. Then, after your day out exploring this lovely part of Somerset, why not treat yourselves to a glass of the scrumptious local cider! You'd be hard-pressed to find a better holiday base.
