Wonderful holiday; being on one level was excellent for my 97 year old mother.
Wonderful holiday; being on one level was excellent for my 97 year old mother. The cottage was beautiful and had everything we needed. Lovely welcome package from the host Chris & Heleena who were very helpful and accommodating. Hot tub was a welcome extra after days out sightseeing in Sherborne, Yeovil, Wells, Glastonbury, Street (Clark’s Outlet Village) and Kingston Lacey. Would recommend

We arrived for a Hen Weekend on Friday 29 November to an amazing, jaw droppingly beautiful cottage. Every little thing that you could possibly think of needing (home comforts wise) was provided…extra blankets and pillows were all to hand in the airing cupboard…not that we needed them as the cottage was wonderfully warm throughout with its under floor heating and thermostats in every room. Provided by the hosts was a small hamper of essential, tea, coffee, bread, milk and butter. All 5 of us fell in love with the place and didn’t want to leave.
