The immediate access from Crowcombe to the breathtaking Quantock Hills, England’s first designated Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty, invites you to explore the wonders of the great outdoors.

I have just spent 4 wonderful nights at this great secluded retreat. The hosts were very helpful and friendly to me and my dog. The grounds/ garden were extensive and beautiful and very secure for my dog. The accommodation was amazing and was very clean and well presented.I would highly recommend this cottage . I hope to return again soon

We stayed here hoping for a romantic, private getaway. While the accommodation is charming, it may not suit those seeking full seclusion, as it is very close to the main house. At times this reduced the sense of privacy, with people pasing by the windows unexpectedly. Wi-Fi is limited as it relies on the main house, and amenities are basic. There is no washing machine or oven in the accommodation (available via the main house), and cooking is limited to a two-hob stove. That said, the hosts are warm and welcoming, and clearly want guests to enjoy their stay. They were respectful and not intrusive. The setting is generally peaceful, with birdsong and some light road noise. The garden is open rather than enclosed, which may be a consideration for pet owners. The location is excellent for exploring nearby walks, beaches, and local attractions. Caroline and John are lovely as is their property. Just not the romantic bolt hole we were hoping for.
