We had a great stay at Ash Lodge! It's set in an idyllic location with pine woods all around. Secluded, with easy to access walks immediately behind the property. It's a great spot as a base for further afield trips to the coast (only 25mins drive) and the national park too. It has everything you could need, with 2 double bedrooms, both with en suites and both with double doors leading out to the decking area.

We really enjoyed our stay at Ash Lodge as the accommodation is absolutely brilliant. Very clean, spacious and very comfortable. The lodge is in a great location, quiet and peaceful on a working farm with chickens, sheep and two horses The owners are very friendly and helpful, and their dog is very friendly too.Excellent for exploring various places near and far by car, like Dunster Castle and Minehead. Further afield is Burnham on Sea.
