A beautiful cottage set in a lovely village. The host was so attentive and friendly. The garden was fabulous and completely dog proof, with a field attached next door. We had the best long weekend. I fully recommend Yew Tree Cottage

Balance of Nature and Convenience We had a lovely stay in this spacious property, which is full of character and boasts a fantastic, fully enclosed garden. The bed was comfortable, and the shower was a highlightgreat presure and plenty of room. We loved being surrounded by nature while still being close to local attractions. Andrea was a lovely host, thoughtfully providing arrival esentials and even a delicious cake. The kitchen lacks a few items needed for doing homemade cooking. And the chairs where not the comfiest to relax in. Also the phone signal is spotty.

If you are looking for a digital detox, this is the place for you! With a lack of WIFI and highly limited phone signal in the house, you will have a very tranquil stay.The décor reflects the 16th century origins with flagstones and rugs over various levels on the ground floor. The wooden panelling between bedrooms, although not helping with privacy, adds to the charm! The house came with abundant supplies and a lovely cake made by the owner, for which we were grateful. There were also many towels/tea towels and cleaning products, which is an unusual occurrence in a rental. The enclosed garden, totally safe for our dog, was lovely, and the field attached to the house was a real bonus. We spent many hours walking him round it, which meant we could take him off lead straight from the house and we were not searching for safe walks. Parking was easy and safe on the property and we appreciated the warm welcome from Andrea and Andrew on arrival. We used the house as a base to visit the area. Bath, Street, Wells and Tyntesfield (NT) are all within easy reach and my husband enjoyed the birdwatching at Chew Valley Lake, also close by.Overall, we would recommend the property, but only if you can do without links to the outside world!
