  • "Super cozy & warm atmosphere inside."

    Lots of coffee, tea and sugar already there. Liked the welcome Biscuits. Very clean and tidy. Easy to adjust heating controls. Excellent hot and cold running water. Excellent beds, bedding & towels. Somewhat limited range of pots & saucepans. Could do with bigger pots for one pot cooking !!! Cooker could do with an upgrade, though worked fine. But overall very high standard of interior A few small maintenance issues. Fx Sensor Lights for the stairs were not working & need replacing. This would be good for the winter months. ! Exterior stair landing outside entrance door pools water. Could do with drain holes. However we totally loved our stay there and will definitely come back another time. Love Chris & Helle

  • "Many thanks for a great week's stay- we've really enjoyed the use of the Loft - it is warm and comfortable and a great base from which to explore the locality."

    The shower, hot water, heating and underfloor heating in the bathroom were user-friendly, plus the kitchen was well-equipped for our needs. The secure off-road parking was much appreciated.

  • "Our stay at The Loft At Nordrach Lodge was great."

    The loft had everything we needed for a self catering holiday, the packet of biscuits left on arrival was a lovely touch. It was in a great location for exploring the surrounding areas, some beautiful walks nearby. The place was clean and tidy, and they had thoughtfully got out the high chair and put up the travel cot for us before arrival which was very helpful. The beds were some of the most comfortable we have used and we all slept fantastically. Check in and out was easy with the key box and the message before arrival with detailed directions (so the sat nav didn’t send us to the wrong place) was very useful. We would definitely return to the property again if we are visiting the area.

    Thank you for your great review. I hope we see you again. Myra Property Owner

  • "The location was perfect for our needs."

    Unfortunately on arrival we were disappointed in not only the lack of garden maintenance, long grass etc and the outside of the Loft! Once inside it was very comfortable ,clean and had everything we required and would revisit. Unfortunately early every morning we were woken with the very loud sound of birds on the roof.The scratching sound was apparently birds getting under solar panels at the rear!!!Thus definitely needs rectifying.

    I’m glad you enjoyed your stay. Unfortunately all our maintenance has been delayed due to the enormous amount of rain we have had. The trades have had to catch up which has resulted in long delays. All these issues have are being dealt with. Regards Myra. Bristow Property Owner

  • "Difficult to find."

    The property was nice and clean inside outside needed more a attention.

    I’m sorry the exterior wasn’t up to your expectations unfortunately maintenance work has been held up due to the atrocious weather we have had. I have tried to add a photo of the entrance to the property on the app messages to help guests find the place but it doesnt seem to work. I’ll check this with Sykes. Property Owner

The property

Blagdon 2.4 miles.

In between Cheddar and Wells, perched on the outskirts of the beautiful Mendip Hills, which is a listed Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty, you will find this delightful holiday home, The Loft at Nordrach.

Situated close to the B3134, it is a very short drive to Cheddar, Wells and a little further on to Weston-super-Mare, Bath, Bristol and many other Somerset attractions.

The Loft welcomes two couples or a family of four.

There is off-road parking and the use of the large garden and private balcony, ideal for children and your pet dog.

This cosy two-bedroom cottage is accessed by an external stairway leading to the entrance of this single-level dwelling.

The property has a tastefully presented open-plan living space.

The fully equipped kitchen provides all the appliances needed to rustle up a delicious meal.

The dining area can seat four people comfortably, where you can enjoy your home-cooked meal.

Later, you can relax on the sofa and watch a film on TV whilst the wood-burning stove keeps you warm and cosy.

When sleep calls, enjoy a relaxing bath before heading to the comfortable king-size beds.

In the morning, enjoy a cup of coffee on the balcony as you take in the view.

You can take a walk down the lane next to the house which will lead you to stunning views of the Mendip Hills and a wonderful area for keen walkers, cavers, children and dogs.

Blagdon is the nearest village, with two pubs, a coffee bar and a shop where you can stock up.

There is a lovely scenic walk around the village green leading to the 15th-century church.

There is a selection of local pubs offering a relaxing lunch or evening meal.

For the closest meal or drink, turn right onto the B3134 to the nearest local pub, The Castle of Comfort, which is two miles away.

A little further on, in the village of Priddy, is the traditional rustic pub The Queen Victoria; both serve tasty meals.

Nearby attractions include Blagdon Lake and Chew Valley Lake, which are great places for birdwatching, walking and fishing.

Chew Valley Lake has two restaurants overlooking the water, The Salt and Malt and Woodford Lodge.

Five minutes from Chew Valley Lake is Chew Magna village, recently voted the best place to live in the South West.

A short drive from The Loft leads you to Cheddar, renowned for the breathtaking Cheddar Gorge, which leads to the charming village of Cheddar, full of things to see and do for a day out.

You can book a tour of its huge, exciting caves, visit the museum, and finally climb the famous Jacob’s Ladder.

The cafés and restaurants offer traditional delicacies and a variety of shops sell artisanal goods, and of course, Cheddar cheese.

Nearby is picturesque Cheddar Reservoir, which has a club offering taster sessions of paddleboarding and sailing.

Wells is also close by and famous for being the smallest city in the UK.

It has a stunning cathedral next to the fascinating Bishop’s Palace, and it is a great place to mooch around, with a large market on Wednesdays and Saturdays.

Wells has several popular supermarkets and its own cinema.

Wookey Hole Caves are situated on the outskirts of Wells and make for a great day out.

Not far from Wells is Glastonbury, which is worth a visit with its quirky historic town and the famous Glastonbury Tor.

If you fancy a traditional day at the seaside, Weston-super-Mare is the place to go.

Venture further to Bath or Bristol and experience these historic cities and their variety of attractions and activities for all ages.

Enjoy a memorable escape to Somerset when you book The Loft at Nordrach.
