Absolutely everything. Immaculate beautiful property, fab location, beautiful setting. We cannot recommend enough. Jan and Paul were very welcoming hosts and they had thought of everything, even down to extra towel rails in the bathroom which is super handy with a family of four so wet towels have somewhere to go. You have to stay here just to appreciate how wonderful it is 😃

Owner was always available. The decoration was stylish and beautiful. The property was immaculately clean with lovely flowers in planters around the grounds. The whole village was attractive. We were left complementary milk, fruit, chocolates.
The fan comes on automatically when you use the bathroom at night. Water pipes make a noise when taps have been used.

Very clean and well presented. The Host had made the accommodation look very homely and it had everything necessary. Well equipped kitchen. Lovely touches like fresh fruit, milk, flowers and some chocolate. Very friendly and helpful hosts. Comfy beds. Extra blankets provided. Warm and cosy. Would definitely stay again. Thank you!!
Only negative was that the walls were very thin and every sound carried through to the entire apartment.

10.0 / 10.0
Everything! This is definitely one of the best s/c accommodations we have stayed in.
It's got absolutely everything you need, spot on!
My Dad used to say "when you go away it wants to be at least as good as at home, otherwise it's not a holiday", well this felt just like home, perfect, more or less just like we have our own home.
Great attention to detail, everything works.
It's rural and quiet, lovely patio/garden/outside furniture, attractive shelter and BBQ.
Good location for travelling to places around.
Nothing at all!

This property is purpose built with its clients in mind. Amenities are good and modern and the property is nicely maintained and kept clean to a high standard. There is a good level of privacy with a garden and some garden furniture is also provided to make sure you are comfortable. If you have children there is a large playing field accessible to the rear. Lots of local towns within easy reach and a pub and garage/shop within 10 minute walk.
The owners are really helpful and make you feel almost part of an extended family.
We would definitely consider staying again.

It’s lovey place to stay, a little hidden gem in Somerton. The host was very welcoming and friendly and was very accommodating, couldn’t ask for anymore. The tea, coffee, milk, biscuits and fresh eggs was a nice added touch. Me and my fiancé was apprehensive about booking during this time due to Covid, but we couldn’t of been anymore happy with how clean and well presented this place was, even extra cleaning products and hand sanitiser was provided. Can’t wait to book and stay again one day.

Everything was great. Exceptionally clean. Very well equipped. Everything you could want and more for a few days away. I highly recommend. Jan is lovely and goes out of her way to assist. She is very happy to give you ideas of where to
go and where to eat.
Very good situation, easy to get to all the beautiful Somerset villages.
I will definitely return.
There was nothing I didn’t like.
