Lovely Stay at a Beautiful Property
This is a jewel of a property tucked behind the main street of a very pretty village so close to the Quantocks and Exmoor, yet is quiet and secluded. The garden is a joy - with table and chairs to sit out in good weather. The bed is huge and very comfortable, kitchen well equipped, and the hostess is next door and very friendly and helpful. Close to a 7 day a week late opening shop too!

Very comfortable, pleasant garden to sit in, helpful hosts. A tight squeeze into and out of the parking area but straightforward after doing it once!

A peaceful sanctuary
A delightful and peaceful place to stay. We were so grateful to be able to bring our dog and to have use of the garden. The barn is well equipped and the owners are very welcoming. It is also ideally situated in the village which has everything you need. An easy drive from the village to lots of places of interest and great walks. A perfect get-away place where you can switch off and enjoy. We had lovely weather and were able to sit in the garden for supper and a cosy evening in enjoying the barn and its peaceful atmosphere. We would definitely recommend this place to others. Thank you very much to Caroline Smeaton for her warm welcome and thoughtfulness.

Perfect for a short stay. Clean and welcoming.
Lovely cosy cottage. Being able to take our dog and use the garden was a bonus. Spotlessly clean and did not smell of other dogs which so often is the case. Thank you

Very Nice Place - Very Nice owners
The property was clean and comfortable and very well-situated for Somerset Archives and the Quantock Brewery. It would be a good base for walking in the Quantocks as well.
