Our group of 8 people really enjoyed this place! There is such a good work gone into the layout, design and decor - it’s a very calming and cozy place.There are 5 excellent bedrooms -2 of them super-spacious. But the biggest and most pleasant surprise was the spacious and very comfortable lounge with its sofas and wood-burner. Our washout Saturday worked well by just chilling and chatting. The kitchen is perfect for a group and lots of things in the cupboard to ensure we didn’t have to pop out to the close by Coop every 10-mins!The village is full of character, and a walk to the and around the reservoir is very do-able.Great find, and a great experience.

Wonderful stay at The Old Angel

Our group of 6 loved our time at The Old Angel. House is amazing and we really enjoyed staying in the square (everyone is so friendly) and visiting the market on the Saturday! Great communication with the hosts. Thank you…we would all love to return one day.

Great Spot for Family Fun

Angel House was spacious enough for us to play cards and talk while some people went to bed early. The Turkish Wetroom was perfect and water pressure was fantastic. The property was huge and the backyard was very nice. The parking was close and simple, the town offers great options. We highly recommend staying here!

Our group of 5 stayed for 3 nights and we were all very impressed with both the property and the location. The property is lovely, as well as being very comfortable and very well equipped, and is a fascinating place to stay. Axbridge is delightful and the location of the Old Angel in the square is ideal. The weather was even good enough to enjoy a few drinks in the sunshine, both in the square and the surprisingly extensive gardens!Definitely recommended. I hope we will be back sometime.

Wow!

Perfect location for local pubs and cafes. A large, comfortable and beautifully appointed house with everything any guest could ever need. The artwork and collections make it a fascinating place to wander around. If you're lucky with the weather then make use of the secret garden, its the best place for a bbq. Would definately recommend to families and groups of friends of all ages.

This property is absolutely stunning. We all had such a fantastic weekend. The house is in a wonderful location, right in beautiful Axbridge market place, with 2 local pubs 2 or 3 doors away, both were great and very friendly too. The house itself in decorated in such a quirky way. The bedrooms, bathrooms, kitchen and living area were warm and cosy with excellent facilities.It was a truly magical find and we would all love to return

Amazing Easter trip

We had an amazing stay at the old Angel. The house is really cute, but spaciyenough for a group of 9 adults. After a long day walking through the Cheddar Gorges, it's the perfect place to get back to, cook a 3 course meal in the fully equipped kitchen, after which we relaxed and played games next to the log fire. We fully recommend, and would stay here again when visiting the area again. Thank Marianne & Simon for having us!

Charming Stay

This was a great place to stay with all the comforts of home and so many thoughtful touches. There was plenty of space for the family to spread out and gather together. There's a large kitchen, great outside space and plenty of seating. There's beautiful artwork throughout the home that adds charm.The location in the square places you close to shops, a bar and grill, small market. Marianne, the host was very helpful in planning our stay and highly responsive. We wouldn't hesitate to book here again.

Family gathering

Booked this beautiful house for a birthday weekend and it was simply great. A great location and a warm friendly pub just steps away. We loved it, Saturday morning was amazing as the Farmers Market was on the doorstep. The only regret was not being able to enjoy the wonderful garden as we went in November as I expect it would be outstanding in the summer. Totally recommended.

Perfect accommodation

We have just arrived back from a weekend in this beautiful house. It was a reunion of 8 school friends and we couldn’t have asked for a more perfect house in a beautiful location. The house was so well equipped with everything we needed for our weekend. The house is beautifully decorated with so much space. The outdoor space was amazing and the garden just kept on going. We highly recommend this house and had a perfect weekend away.

All equipment and utensils needed were available, including use of condiments, spices and oils. Local amenities were great. Local pub and supermarket for all essentials. Hosts very friendly and accommodating. Had clear expectations and instructions for each room and facility available. Highly recommend the house and hosts. Fantastic stay. Thank you.

Our favorite accommodation in two weeks of travel, this was absolutely a one-of-a-kind great find. A former medieval inn filled with antiques and comfy beds and claw-foot bathtubs and huge fireplaces and several living rooms and secret garden relaxation spaces, close to wonderful places to explore like Cheddar Gorge and Wells. Highly recommended. Just one head's up: the nearby church has bells that ring every fifteen minutes night and day, so if you're a light sleeper, choose a room not in direct line with the bells. The Lamb Inn beside it had excellent food.

Amazing find

We had a lovely weekend in this very special property. A 16th century former inn, loads of space - no low ceilings despite its age! Best equipped kitchen I have ever stayed in. Lovely log fires, comfortable beds and beautiful art and 'objets' all around the house. The house is in a very pretty village which is full of history and historical buildings. We ran around the reservoir, had a great trip to Wells and did lovely walking from the house onto the hill behind it. Could not recommend it more.

Family reunion

We were all thrilled with our stay at Old Angel. As well as character, there was comfort. We lacked for nothing. We were blessed with brilliant weather and enjoyed time in the beautiful rustic, terraced gardens . Axbridge is a delightful village & we enjoyed chatting with the friendly locals. Would highly recommend Old Angel to anyone,, I really hope we can come back here again.

Unique and eclectic

We all had a wonderful stay at the Old Angel. It's a fantastic old building, that the owners clearly love and have put a lot of time and effort into decorating. Our children had a great time exploring the garden and looking for frogs as well as trips to Wookey Hole and the coast. The adults enjoyed runs from the front door and relaxing both inside and out.

A fantastic place to stay!

We enjoyed our weekend immensely, everything we needed was either provided or available in the medieval square! The house was comfortable and large enough for the five of us to feel like we had our own space. The weather was good so we were able to enjoy the garden as well as the local pub....four doors away! Thank you Marianne for your clear instructions both by email and left in places around the house. I will definitely be looking at my diary to book again!
