Guests say

Guests have had delightful experiences at The Coach House, praising its tranquil setting, convenient location, and the luxurious hot tub. The property's charm and character, along with the warm hospitality of hosts Rick and Dee, are consistently highlighted. The nearby village pub adds to the appeal, offering a friendly atmosphere and good food.

There is no specific mention of cleanliness in the reviews, so it is not possible to provide an accurate score for this category.

The property is appreciated for its quiet, village location with easy access to local areas, including Glastonbury and the seaside town of Beer, making it an ideal base for exploring.

The Coach House is described as a comfortable and super property, though the quirky stairs are noted; they may require some acclimatisation but do not detract from the overall comfort.

The facilities, especially the hot tub, are a highlight for guests. The property is well-equipped with everything needed for a stay, though no specific mention of maintenance means this score is based on the positive experiences shared.

The hosts' thoughtfulness is evident through the mention of welcome gifts such as eggs, bread, butter, and Prosecco. While these gifts are greatly appreciated by guests, they are a kind gesture and may not be provided on every occasion.

About this property

Located in the rural village of Charlton Adam in Somerset is The Coach House, a delightful cottage, inviting two guests. Enjoying countryside views and a great position near a range of amenities, whilst complete with a private hot tub, well-equipped kitchen, and a studio-style double bedroom, The Coach House makes the ideal base for a romantic escape. Benefit from off-road parking, before making your way through the front patio, and in through the stable door, where you'll access the kitchen/diner, well-equipped to rustle up delicious meals. Choose to dine in, or alfresco upon the patio, where you can also enjoy an indulgent soak in the hot tub as the sky grows darker. Refresh in the ground-floor shower room, before climbing the stairs to reach the double bedroom, also complete with a dining area and sitting area, to relax and unwind with elevated vistas. Come morning, enjoy breakfast upon the patio, before exploring the rolling countryside surrounding the village; Combe Hill Wood is nearby, perfect for hiking across, whilst the Mendip Hills AONB is reachable by car, where you can tour the remains of The Bishop's Palace & Gardens, or opt for a guided stroll through Wookey Hole Caves. Glastonbury is a recommended stop off, brimming with culture, heritage, and magnificent architecture, where you'll have the chance to visit the Somerset Rural Life Museum, discover Glastonbury Abbey, hike up to the National Trust grounds of Glastonbury Tor, or bird watch across RSPB Ham Wall. Complete your getaway by enjoying a picnic at Yeovil Country Park, or touring the Montacute House, an Elizabethan mansion with pretty gardens, before heading for Dorset AONB and the coast. Spend quality time with your loved one at The Coach House.

A charming village called Charlton Adam may be found in Somerset, halfway between Somerton and Kingweston.

Nearby attractions include Wheathill Golf Club, where you can practise your swing, Lytes Cary Manor, a stunning manor house encircled by lovely gardens and owned by the National Trust, and Combe Hill Wood, a sizable National Forest. In the direction of the Mendip Hills aonb, there are other points of interest, including the Bishop's Palace & Gardens, the Wookey Hole Caves, and the walking and cycling routes in the Ebbor Gorge National Nature Reserve.

    Rick and Dee were really friendly and helpful and left us to it once we were settled :) The kitchen was nicely well stocked for cooking, it was lovely being able to cook with the front doors open onto the garden. Our only issue was we couldn’t find a chopping board! The hot tub was our main draw to this place and it didn’t disappoint! The lights in the garden were a lovely touch too. We will definitely return if we are looking to stay in this area again! We recommend Cary Alpaca nearby too!

    Perfect for visiting local attractions with Wells Cathedral, Glastonbury and Cheddar Gorge all between 20 to 45 minutes drive. Local pub, with a friendly atmosphere and good food is a 5 minute walk and there is no better way to end the evening than relaxing in the secluded hot tub. Quirky stairs not an issue, lots of charm and character. Special mention to the lovely hosts Rick and Dee. Thoroughly recommended.
