It is ideally situated for trips to Weston, Cheddar Gorge, local pubs and shops etc. The only slight niggle we had was on arrival the built in fridge door was catching badly on the kitchen unit and I personally found the mattress soft and uncomfortable. The property owner was friendly, helpful and professional.

The cottage has been lovingly and beautifully renovated, it is perfectly equipped for a 3 person stay. The owner left us a nice welcome package and I particularly enjoyed using the tea set/teapot. We would very much recommend a stay here. Thank you for using us.

The cottage was beautifully renovated and everything was so clean and welcoming and warm. I found the mattress very comfortable which I don't always because I have hip and back pain. I was expecting a lot of road noise but it wasn't noisy at all just hearing the occasional passing car. The cottage is in a very good location for walking and exploring with our dog. Thankyou for making us so welcome we will definitely be back for more exploring.
