We had a fabulous holiday. The house is beautiful and had everything we needed and more and the grounds were great. Brilliant location for visiting Wookey Hole, Cheddar, Wells and Weston and we had great meals at the Railway and the New Inn too.

We had a wonderful stay at Barleycombe, it’s a really special place and a great place to have a crowd. Rich and Sue were great, considerate hosts who checked in to see if they could help.
