We had a wonderful stay, David was very accommodating but once settled left us to enjoy our weekend. The property is very large and has everything you need for a celebratory weekend. We particularly enjoyed the hot tub and swimming pond

Great property - met all the needs for our stay. David is an excellent host. Hope to go back again!

Had an amazing time, the building is fantastic and having so many bedrooms is so helpful when having a 40th birthday party. The livingroom and kitchen are bigger than they look in the photos and easily held 18 of us. The garden was massive and had all sorts of little areas to have a look at and sit in. The owner (Dave) is very friendly and helpful and gave us a good tour. I would absolutely recommend this to anyone looking to hold a gathering or some away time with the extended family.

We rented the property for a family Christmas reunion. There was plenty of space for the children to play in the grounds and the location was great for family walks. The property had plenty of crockery etc for our group of 16.

Visiting from Australia to catch up with family from all over UK and wanted to gather in a single location. With 14 adults ages 17 - 87 and 2 dogs the accommodation worked really well, The property was clean and well serviced and Dave was incredibly helpful as unfortunately our check-in date turned out to be Queens funeral day. The Garden was beautiful and we played Croquet, Jenga and Connect 4 on the lawn. The local village was easy to walk to and had 4 pubs (only got to 3). The BBQ area was very well equipped (even for an Aussie) and the kitchen dinner accommodated us all very well. We never used the pizza oven or hot tub in the garden as time didnt allow. The property was also a good location for touring to places like Dunster, Taunton and the Quantocks. The bedrooms were large and comfortable and the bathrooms / en suites clean and plenty of hot water. We all had a great time and many happy memories - thanks for the stay, really enjoyed it!

Gardens were amazing.

Stayed here for my sister's hen weekend. Absolutely perfect fir all 18 of us. The house and gardens were beautiful, the owner was super helpful and patient with us and we had a brilliant time!

Lovely property beautiful gardens loads of space perfect for a family get together thoroughly enjoyed by us all.

Dave was easy to communicate with and answered all of our questions in the run up to our trip. House and gardens are huge and well equipped for a large group. Recommended.

Anna and I are so grateful to Dave and Ros for our stay at Model Farm with our friends as a 30th birthday gathering that turned into an engagement celebration. The communication was fantastic and they were so flexible when we realised that two of our friends could not come owing to COVID, and three more then said they could come late on. Dave even mowed the grass in an area of the grounds when we mentioned we were thinking about playing cricket one day! And Model Farm was beautiful, well-resourced and all the bedrooms/bathrooms were perfect. All of the personal touches in terms of providing us with local products were so appreciated. We would recommend Model Farm to anyone.

We all loved the cottage, it was perfect for a big friends and family get together. Living room is so spacious so we could all gather there for games and kitchen is also large for us all to eat breakfast together! Bedrooms are huge and very comfy and everything was decorated to a high standard and spotless! We had use of the orangery for the second night and that was perfect for our murder mystery evening which was hosted by Blackwatch entertainment. We would definitely recommend them, the actors were lovely and made everyone feel at ease! Dave the owner was amazing, happy to help us and answer any questions we had. I can’t recommend this place enough and all of us felt the same! Lovely grounds also and we very much enjoyed the hot tub! Thank you so much Dave, we will be back 😊

Comforting and ideal. Lovely Quantocks walks. Appreciated the quiet and calm of the countryside and would recommend a likewise group to visit lovely Somerset for that special get together

Warm, spacious, well equipped. Lovely grounds., dog friendly and secure.. Atmospheric hot tub, great place to see the sun rise or set! Highly recommended.

We were a large party of 22 for a hen weekend and Dave couldn't have been more accommodating for us. The local area is stunning and instructions to get to the property made finding ourselves in the heart of the countryside very simple. We arranged for the local vineyard, Oatley, to come and give us a wine tasting experience and had the most incredible pizza from Perry Green pizza. The hen has had the best weekend and we can't recommend Model Farm enough

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay! Perfect for a large family group - Dave was extremely helpful and we will definitely be back! The garden is unreal

Very enjoyable stay. A great choice for a large group of friends and family.

We had an amazing stay at model farm. The house was perfect for large groups and the grounds and gardens are stunning. We were able to use a lot of the space and enjoy the hot tub. Would highly recommend for any group trip.

So spacious, inside and out; lovely furnishings and very well equipped. Only drawback is not if beach and sea are high priority but we had a great time.

We had an absolutely fantastic weekend staying here for my sisters hendo . We are so thankful for Davies flexibility through all the covid lockdowns , it really did take the potential stress away of organising 20 people ! Check out the vineyard 3 miles away it is also brilliant

The house and surrounding gardens are brilliant. The hosts were very nice and helpful. And the garden is ideally set up to play games such as rounders and cricket. We hope to book again one day.

We had a wonderful time celebrating a 50th birthday with the family at this house. Dave was really helpful throughout our stay - we did have a few problems but Dave was really quick to fix them and was just around the corner so we had no issues getting things fixed quickly. Overall we had a wonderful stay and would recommend to anyone thinking of staying here. We imagine it would be even more amazing in the summer months!

Beautiful house, breathtaking gardens and fantastic facilities.

Spent Christmas here. Dave was extremely helpful and showed us round and was very accommodating when we requested a late check out. The house is ideal for a large group and the kitchen had plenty of cutlery. Though it was quiet cold outside, the house stayed warm all the time. The showers had good pressure and there was always hot water for our large group of 20+. Even managed to use the outdoor hot tub on Boxing Day! would definitely recommend this place especially as it allows pets. The gardens are well maintained and the surrounding area is very flat and ideal for long walks. All in all we had a great stay there and would definitely go back.

Thank you David you are a wonderful host!

Easy to book - Dave was very prompt and helpful with his responses to all our questions. The house was perfect for us, 20 hens, celebrating my daughter's upcoming wedding. The house, gardens, hot tub and location all worked so well for us. Plenty of rooms, bathrooms, linen, very clean and overall welcoming and charming. We even left with a big bag of apples from the garden. All in all 20 Happy Hens !

We had a fabulous family gathering at this wonderful house. David was a great host and very helpful before and during our stay.

We stayed at the Model Farm house (family of 24 including children) Owner David was very helpful and accommodating all the way from booking to checking out . We had a fantastic time over the weekend . The Hot tub was lovely, overlooking the beautiful garden. The House is very spacious with plenty of room for a big group. David and Rose are very flexible and allowed us to check out late in the evening. I would highly recommend this place!

My family had a wonderful break here at Model Farm. It is tucked out of the way in such a peaceful setting, with the most beautiful gardens I have ever seen. The house is gorgeous, the photographs don’t do it justice. David was the perfect host with nothing being too much trouble. His flexibility on arriving and departing made our stay a whole lot less stressful. Thank you!!

We had a lovely stay and made full use of the extensive beautiful gardens, hot tub and and communal areas. All of our friends were complimentary about the venue. We also visited Oatley Vineyard for a picnic and wine tasting (recommended on the website) and would highly recommend a trip there as well. Thanks David for a wonderful weekend.

Model Farm is an absolutely fantastic property that is a place you wouldn't want to miss. From the fantastic gardens with wood burning hot tub, to the beautiful bedrooms, each with their own personality. Dave was a fantastic host and was quick with his responses when we needed help prior to coming to the property. The pictures on the website do not do this property justice - it is breathtaking. We were only there for a weekend but already planning a longer trip back!

We all had a fabulous weekend 12th to 15th April 2019 at Model Farm. The venue was very spacious and comfortable, it suited our party which included various age groups. The hot tub was a great success and the outdoor space was used for numerous games and rounders proved very popular. The gardens were delightful, we had a barbecue on Saturday. One recommendation would be to perhaps have mixer taps in the bathrooms in order to help control the extremely hot water. All the bedding was top quality and the beds very comfortable. Overall a very successful get together and would be very happy to come back again, thank you.

My only regret is that we didn’t come in the summer, I think the garden will be fabulous then. Having said that, it was the perfect place for a Christmas family reunion - surprisingly warm for such a big old place, with a Christmas tree provided and plenty of space and equipment to cook Christmas dinner for 16. The rooms were all delightful with top quality beds and many with en-suite bathrooms. My nieces wanted to move in. Dave and Roz were great hosts, always on hand if we needed anything.
