What our customers say about their holidays

  The house was perfect for our group of six adults with plenty of room to relax away from the group while reading a book from the extensive library or sitting in the garden, as well as great community areas for getting together.

  The view across the village is beautiful. We had a couple of great evenings around the fire pit cooking sausages and marshmallows. Nearby Dulverton is a beautifully quaint village with friendly people in the local shops. The local restaurants are good and worth a visit on the nights you don’t want to cook. A small warning, the walk up to the house is pretty steep so if you’re used to flat ground it’s a shock to the system but you do get used to it after the first couple of goes. The basement rooms were great for video gaming and the sound doesn’t bleed through too much to the ground floor rooms and not at all to the upstairs rooms (if you have night owls in your group) . Minehead has great beaches, it will take at least 30mins to get there contrary to the sat navs opinion of 20mins this is because cars drive generally slower on the bendy roads (they actually should on these, so just relax and enjoy the views). All in all we had a perfect week and would recommend this house to anyone.

  We had a fabulous time and made some precious family memories at Barleside.

  The layout was perfect for our group. My only criticism is the downstairs double is quite basic when compared to the beautiful space upstairs. My elderly parents had the downstairs room as they can't get upstairs- and it would have been nice for us to know they had as special a room. I know you can't please everybody all the time and we loved the twin with the river view. Also a couple of comfy Sun loungers would be perfect- but if we came again we could always bring our own. We loved Dulverton and would like to come back, without hesitation we would book Barleside again. We didn't have any issues with free parking very close to the cottage, it wasn't a problem.

  Cottage was clean, warm and comfortable and Dulverton is a nice little place with plenty of shops and eating places.

  The upstairs bedroom and bathroom are really spacious and the layout ideal for two couples. The outside seating area was lovely. I do agree with previous comments about the indoor seating, there is really only comfortable seating for 3 people in the living room. Also, I think the property description should make the parking situation clearer, we could not park outside to unload, as the narrow access lane was too busy with traffic to and from the veterinary practice. There isn't much unrestricted parking in Dulverton either, so you may end up paying for the car park (currently £5 per day). However, those were only minor issues and we would happily book again.

  Lovely spacious house, very well equipped, everything you need in kitchen, loads if toys for all ages, games, books and dvds.

  Great views. Kids had a lovely time jusy playing in the house as weather was very rainy. There is garden (but steep drops so need to watch young kids playing) and a play park a few mins walk from house too. It was no problem for us but as it says in the description be aware that there is a very steep road to house. House recently renovated so nice modern kichen and bathrooms. Some furniture is a bit tired but is in keeping with house style and did not affect our enjoyment of the house and holiday. Owners very lovely and helpful.

  We were a mixed party of three generations.

  All our day to day needs were amply catered for in this house. Some days we just stayed at "home" because it was so nice. The view from the front of the house overlooking Dulverton and the surrounding hills is beautiful. We were very lucky with the weather so every morning the front door was thrown open and we breakfasted on the front patio taking in the scenery. The Anchor at nearby Exebridge deserves a mention. Situated right by the river it allows the children to play in the water while the adults relax and the food is good too.
