Fantastic little cottage and exactly as described. Beautifully decorated and everything you need including a fan which was very welcomed in the hot weather we had. Very comfy beds and a great shower. It’s a beautiful little village and lovely to walk around with a castle, cafe, shop and pub. Lovely and quiet but really good location wise to get to lots of near by attractions. Parking wasn’t an issue and always found one near by. Great weeks stay at the cottage.

A Lovely Place in a Charming Town

The house was beautiful and clean with everything you need for a week away with kids. The location was perfect for exploring the town and surrounding area, and management was friendly and helpful when we reached out with questions.

The cottage was as described, in the heart of the village, lovely, comfortable and fully equipped. We ve enjoyed having breakfast in the outside space at rear, watching and listening to the brook. This makes the place a real gem. Nunney is a very picturesque and quiet village, yet with a lively pub and a very nice Cafe. And so many lovely walks with stunning views on the fiels and surrounding hills. It has been very easy to check in and to communicate with Andrew and the cleaning service is very good.

Long weekend break

a clean, well-equiped property. Very handy for the village amenities and viewing the local area. Very grateful that our dog was allowed to come too and the house was well designed for this. We understand that this is a recent holiday let. might suggest bedside tables and lights - fairly minor point. would recommend to others.

Lovely, quirky little cottage in a quiet village. Near enough to Frome to have everything available that you may need, but far enough away to feel like you are away from the crowds. The cottage has lots of features and would be no good for anyone who struggles with staircases and is over 6 feet tall but there were most things that you need for a comfortable stay. We even had a kingfisher land on the patio fence a couple of times. All in all we would recommend this place.

Beautiful cottage in a very lovely village.

We really enjoyed our stay. Florence Cottage is very well equipped and has clearly had a lot of money spent on it. The kitchen is beautiful, bathroom very modern and all the furniture is of good quality (very comfortable beds and sofa etc.). Andy sent us a detailed email prior to check-in with all the relevant instructions... The only thing we missed was a guide for the many recycling bins, but found the information on the Somerset Council website. I should mention how wonderfully warm the property is - even in March - thanks to the very new radiators.As the other reviews mention, the stairs really are steep - but that is to be expected with a property of this age.Nunney is a very special village with castle and welcoming pub, and there are many activities and walks within easy reach.I hope we can return in warmer months to enjoy the terrace overlooking the brook.Thank you for having us.

The best thing about this cottage were the people in the area. Particularly the folks in the Cafe at Nunney. The steps to upper floors are dangerous. There are no handrails and the steps are various sizes not to mention they are in a spiral. They are not for the faint of heart. You have to go up on all fours. I’ve no experience living in an old cottage so maybe it’s normal to have lots of large spiders, beetles and wasps. My husband got stung while in bed. Every day when we would return home the first thing we did was kill insects. Having instructions for the appliances would be helpful. The WiFi was okay but unable to send emails. I was very disappointed.

Hi Maureen, I’m very sorry to hear that your stay didn’t meet expectations. I truly wish you had reached out during your visit so we could have addressed your concerns right away. We haven’t received complaints about wasps or other insects before, so I can only assume a window or door may have been left open at some point. Had we known, we could have resolved this quickly for you. Regarding the Wi-Fi, we’ve tested it and confirmed that it’s working properly, including for sending emails. It’s possible there was a temporary issue with your email settings or program, as no other guests have experienced difficulties. As noted in the property overview, the cottage is several hundred years old, and the stairs to the top floor are indeed steeper than in modern homes: “Please note that the steep stairs add character to the cottage but may not be suitable for guests with mobility concerns.” Again, I’m sorry your experience didn’t fully meet expectations. If you return to the area, I’d love the opportunity to host you again and ensure your stay is everything you hoped for. Warm regards, Andy

Le charmant cottage Florence permet de découvrir le Somerset, il est situé au cœur d’un joli village. La cuisine est très bien équipée, le salon est cosy et les chambres confortables. La terrasse qui donne sur la rivière est très agréable. Nous avons passé un très bon séjour et Andrew communique toutes les informations importantes.
