Beautiful cottage in a lovely location. Perfectly placed for Clarke's village if you love shopping ! We also visited Wells, Glastonbury, Weston-super-Mare and Lyme Regis which were all easy to get to. The cottage itself was warm and welcoming with everything you could possibly need. The kitchen was well equipped with the added bonus of a dishwasher and washing machine ! The beds were comfortable with lovely fresh linen which smelt amazing ! I enjoyed my stay with friends and would recommend this cottage to anyone as a central base for experience the delights Somerset has to offer. I shall definitely be revisiting 😊
