“The studio is a lovely accomodation for two, set in very rural Somerset.”

Comfortable, clean and well equipped, it's the ideal bolt hole to chill and relax after a day touring this beautiful area. Many attractions within 20 milesany direction of the studio. We had a lovely stay.

“Enjoyable stay at Trister studio, although must say we had a few bruises getting used to the apex beams.”

Views were stunning but would benefit from a glass balcony to appreciate these when sat down. Studio is well equipped with everything you would need despite being compact. Not sure about the abundance of fluffy cushions for hygiene reasons, and recycling bins meant a trek down every day to fill 5 different ones as no space upstairs. However the place & surrounding areas were delightful and we thoroughly enjoyed our stay

- Miss Powell, August 2021

Thank you for taking the time to leave a feedback, we are delighted you enjoyed your stay and appreciated the views. We do mention the low beams in the description and in the booking confirmation box. We'll make sure to forward your recommendations to the owner and looking forward to welcoming you again soon.

Mr Sharp July 2021

“The studio gave us exactly what we needed, a week away from everything to relax and recover from a hectic few weeks.”

perfectly situated away from the world, it was amazing to just relax. the weather stopped us from going outside too much but still a nice relaxing time was had.

- Mr Sharp, July 2021

Thank you so much for your feedback. We are so glad to hear that you enjoyed your stay and we would love to welcome you back anytime in the future. Property Owner
Mr Forbes July 2021

“We came to Somerset for a chill out week with our dog and by staying here we certainly managed that.”

Jane, out host, was welcoming and went beyond what she needed to do to make sure our stay was one we would remember. The apartment was exactly what we needed and once we had got used to the perils of living in a loft conversion, we had everything w needed but it was the people of Somerset that made our stay and Jane epitomised that’ in every way

- Mr Forbes, July 2021

Thank you so much for such wonderful feedback. It's lovely to hear that you enjoyed your stay and the people of Somerset (Jane included!) made your time there so memorable. You're always welcome to return to Trister Studio in the future. Property Owner

Miss Ryan April 2021

“Trister Studio, is a little gem, nestled in a quiet valley, with beautiful vistas from the balcony during the day and an ocean of stars at night.”

You will find everything you require for your stay, with a huge cushion laden sofa to chill out on after a day of adventures. Your welcome will be warm and helpful, I enjoyed the wonderful welcome basket of goodies. It is a beautiful place, so if you can trot up the stairs to the loft & remember the eaves above the comfy bed, you will have a delightful stay in an area that offers plenty of walking and historic areas to visit. I had a wonderful, peaceful stay, so enjoy !

- Miss Ryan, April 2021

Thank you for your feedback with regards to your stay at Trister Studio. Its wonderful to hear how much you enjoyed staying at the Studio. We will pass on your comments to the owner and we hope to welcome you back again in the future. Property Owner

“Jane was a wonderful host and the property and grounds were lovely.”

Beautiful views, quiet and full use of the gardens. Easy to do a Covid secure handover too.

- Ms Morgan, April 2021
Mr Durnell April 2021

“Location and accommodation are great and as we needed a pleasant break we were very impressed .”

Close to 303 for day trips and the accommodation veranda was good for peaceful evenings in. Wanted for nothing at the studio and Jane was attentive to check we had everything we needed. Will definitely book again.

- Mr Durnell, April 2021

Thank you for taking the time to leave your lovely comments on Trister Studio. We look forward to you returning to the studio in the near future. Property Owner
Mrs Smith October 2020

“The cottage was lovely and as described.”

The owner gave a covid friendly welcome and was reassuring when I rang her prior to the visit to check what covid cleaning regime she followed. Fantastic views and walks from the cottage. Wincanton was close by and had everything we required. The settee looked comfortable but was actually really uncomfortable. Anyone taller than 5”10 will need to mind their heads as the beams are low at the sides. All in all a lovely break in a high standard cottage.

- Mrs Smith, October 2020

Thank you for your lovely feedback on Trister Studio. We are glad you enjoyed the views and walks from the property. Of all the reviews on the Hideaways website the issues you have raised have never been flagged up as a problem. However, we will pass your comments on to the owner. There is also a section of the sofa that backs on to the kitchen area, as shown in the pictures. This is well away from the beams and there is more than enough room for two people to sit in comfort.

Guest's review on TripAdvisor

“We have just got back from 4 days at The Studio.”

It is truly spectacular with absolutely incredible views. We took our 2 whippet dogs with us and did lots of long walks, right from door of The Studio - there are so many footpaths to explore within 5 minutes walking distance of the property. It was wonderful to come back to after a day out in the fresh air in the surrounding landscape, sit down on the sofa with a cup of tea and look out across the beautiful scenery. It is a magical place to stay. The owners are lovely and more than happy to do anything for you. Everything you'll need is provided in The Studio. If you have the opportunity to stay here, please do, you won't regret it. We're certainly going to be returning!

“We have had 7 amazing nights at The Studio.”

Beautiful location, cosy and comfortable. Accommodation was everything we needed and we would recommend to family and friends as a perfect relaxing retreat. Beautiful views, welcoming host and thank you for our lovely tray of goodies. The only downside was that it wasn't long enough! We cannot wait to come back.

“Having travelled though this part of the country on many occasions it was a revelation, the epitome of England's green and pleasant land.”

The views from the balcony are exceptional, the owners are very pleasant and The Studio is very comfortable. Above all, the welcome that Somerset provides is something that I will treasure!

“Me and my partner stayed here in June last year.”

The views were beautiful, and it is very close to some amazing restaurants and shops. Plus only an hour away from amazing places to visit. The apartment was very clean, and we both loved the way they left some goodies for us for when we arrive. Was very thoughtful. We both will definitely be back. Thank you.

“I had a wonderful time here and the weather was very good to me.”

If you're a cider drinker, walk down to the Unicorn pub; he has won adwards. Jane is a very special lady and my dogs enjoyed the company of some visiting doggies. Thank you. Will return.

“Just to say thank you for a wonderful stay this weekend.”

We've fallen in love with The Studio and that view! Really impressed with The Studio and what you have done with the space. Thanks for all the little touches too! We can't believe how lucky we were with the weather and are heading back to London thoroughly refreshed. We''ll be highly recommending you to family and friends and will be sure to leave a glowing review on the Hideaways site.

“Wow, what a lovely place, we wore ourselves out.”

The kind owners said we could use their garden to play ball and run around. They also kindly left us some doggie chews and our owners some cider and biscuits. We visited lots of lovely places and did lots of walking and playing. Our dad owner was on the verandah nearly all the time. All in all a lovely place to stay with views to die for. Wonderful places to visit and lovely welcoming people. Thank you so much.
