About this property
Congresbury 1.2 miles. Idyllically positioned amidst the peaceful countryside of Somerset, on the outskirts of Congresbury, rests this quirky, single-storey log cabin, Down the Rabbit Hole. Boasting a rustic yet homely interior with underfloor heating, a sociable open-plan living space, ground-floor living ideal for those with limited mobility, and a well-kept garden, Down the Rabbit Hole makes an excellent base for a rural retreat to Somerset. Park up in the off-road space provided before unloading your belongings and settling into your new home-from-home. Be charmed by the quirky interior of the open-plan living space, beautifully-appointed with eye-catching feature flooring, rustic wooden décor and hand-picked contrasting fittings and furnishings. Flick on the kettle and unwind with a sumptuous spot in front of the television following a day of adventure, or get to work on rustling up a hearty meal in the kitchen, well-equipped with a range of amenities, sure to entice any budding chef! Uncork a bottle of wine and gather together at the dining table to indulge in the fruits of your labour, or slide open the floor-to-ceiling doors and make mealtimes an alfresco affair on the patio. The log cabin overlooks a large field housing pheasants, rabbits and hares, as well as plenty of bird life such as owls and woodpeckers, and you may even spot a deer passing by! The stylish family bathroom offers a lovely spot to escape the excitement, where you can pour in the bubbles and indulge in a blissful soak before climbing into your pyjamas and heading off to catch your rest. Choose between three well-presented bedrooms, a super-king-size, benefiting from access to it's own en-suite, a double and a twin, all settled on the ground-floor to ensure that the whole family can join in on a stay at Down the Rabbit Hole! The village of Congresbury is set a short distance from the log cabin, home to a wealth of local amenities, including Oldfield Fish & Chips, for those evenings when you fancy putting your feet up with a takeaway, The Congresbury Arms, ideal for an afternoon drink in the beer garden, and a convenience store, stocking all of the essentials to assist with any self-catered stay! The excellent 18-hole Mendip Spring Golf Club is within easy reach to play a game or two, followed by a cold drink and home-cooked food in the courtyard restaurant. From the golf course, you can join the famous Strawberry Line, a popular local path to cycle or walk through traffic-free countryside. If you're travelling with little ones, be sure to visit Puxton Park, with its adventure park, soft play area, miniature railway, high-rope course and boating lake offering something for all weathers, whilst thrill seekers may prefer to embark on an outdoor adventure with a visit to the Mendip Activity Centre. Be sure to pack your walking gear and explore the great outdoors of the Mendip Hills AONB, home to the iconic limestone landscapes of Cheddar Gorge and Wookey Hole Caves, whilst the pristine sands of Weston-Super-Mare offers a change of scenery for those looking for a coastal retreat. Down the Rabbit Hole makes a wonderful getaway for exploring Somerset, whatever time of year.

Home from home with kitchen utensils etc. would definitely recommend. Only problem is cannot walk anywhere from it due to no pathways. Hoping there is a hidden field wall somewhere we can find when itâs a bit drier

The cabin was nice and warm on arrival. Very well equipped ideal for a family stay. Nice hot water and good pressure. Good internet and phone signal. Very comfortable bed, Great nights sleep all week. The welcome pack and flowers on the table was a nice touch (thank you ) Although fairly close to the airport flight path we were not affected by aircraft noise at all. In fact a Great location only 15 minutes to Bristol airport. The only negative point was ,at night time ,it was very dark although there is an outside light,it does not illuminate the path from the cabin to the driveway . I almost fell down the steps as they it was so dark at night. If a solar panelled light could be installed to the corner of the cabin, that would be a wise move otherwise an accident will occur. Thank you for a Very relaxing and comfortable weeks break. John and Helen

The accommodation is spacious and very clean. The welcome pack was lovely and they have literally thought of everything you could possibly need which was brilliant as we wanted to visit the local butcher and do some cooking. The information pack was clear and had lots of info on places to visit. The location of the cabin was perfect for getting around and there is so many things to do and place to dine in the surrounding areas would highly recommend a visit to the wells market and cathedral and Cheddar. I will say if you wanted to walk to the local pub it could be a little dangerous as no actual pathway but we didnât try out the golf club which could be an option but for us this was a good thing as wanted to recover from Christmas anyway lol. The hosts are fantastic as due to heavy rain our lights went out and within minutes David was with us to get the problem sorted out. My only issue which isnât a big thing it just would just of been great for me being lazy in the morning if there was a fenced in area we could just let the dog out and if we return in the summer which we would like to do we wouldnât have to worry about the patio doors being open and him running off. A great stay and a great place would highly recommend a stay here!
