We have just got back from a fantastic week, the cottage is exactly what we wanted and more. Owners from next door very friendly, accomodating and knowledgable without being invasive. Well worth booking if your looking in this area and parking is perfect for the cottage. Yes its next to main road but you can not hear it from inside the cottage and its so cosy and homely. Would look to book again when back within the area.

Lovely cosy cottage in a great location. Wells is within walking distance and very nice with great sightseeing, shops and a wide choice of places to eat in or takeaway. Supermarkets within walking distance of the cottage too. A parking space for personal use making going out easy with lots of places in the area to explore. We enjoyed days out at Glastonbury, Cheddar Gorge and visiting a number of Cider Farms in the area. We purchased some lovely Ciders to bring home. Hedgers Cider Barn is very good with food, a great range of ciders and ales to try, nice food and entertainment at certain times. The farmhouse Cider, Extra Mature Cheddar and Stilton from Wilkins Farm were amazing and great value and you can see the cider presses at work if you arrive at the right time. Would revisit in a heartbeat in the future and recommend to others. The owners live next door and introduce themselves to check you are happy with the cottage which they keep spotlessly clean leaving welcome gifts too which were very nice, thankyou. Kindest regards, Lynne & Keith
