Thank you very much for the lovely bottle of bubbles and kind words in the card you left for us after your stay. We are so glad that you all enjoyed your holiday and stay at The Old Smithy. You would be welcome to holiday here again at The Old Smithy - and continue your explore of South Somerset, Dorset and Devon. We will up load some more songs onto the iPod for you to enjoy next time!! Many thanks

Such a shame you felt the need to comment on the photos. We were under the impression that we were helping you out. You and your work colleagues needed a place to stay while you were working locally. We accommodated you. The details state quite clearly that this is a family home. We have only ever rented to families and holiday makers before. As you will see from their feedback - all have been incredibly happy with their stay at The Old Smithy. It is such a shame that a few family photos on the walls equaled a three star review. During your visit, and when you left, you all said that you had enjoyed your stay. If you had voiced the concerns regarding the photos at the time we would, of course, have sorted them out immediately.

You are very welcome! We are so glad that you were able to enjoy the garden, sun trap BBQ area and the local beaches. It is always lovely to hear when family gatherings enjoy their time together at The Old Smithy. We are glad you enjoyed the local Dorset biscuits and the very local apple juice. Best wishes Hilary and David

You are very welcome! We are so glad that you all enjoyed your family holiday together! Thank you for you messages during your stay. It is always lovely to hear how our guests are enjoying their stay at The Old Smithy. We particualrly enjoyed your message saying, 'We had a laugh earlier as my 3 and a half year old grand daughter said Nanna can we keep the holiday house!' It made us laugh as well!! You would all be welcome back again for another family holiday! Best wishes Hilary and David

You are very welcome! We are so glad that you all enjoyed your stay at The Old Smithy. I bet the Grandchildren had a super time entertaining each other in the garden! Hopefully this meant the adults could chill on the sun trap BBQ area? Best wishes Hilary and David
