Our guesthouse offers 5 self-contained ensuite rooms, each with a private bathroom and an outdoor bistro area. Each room has free WiFi, a TV, kettle, fridge, and a desk. Free parking is available, and guests are welcome to explore our 1.5-acre paddock, which is ideal for dog owners. Each room combines modern and traditional decor, creating a cosy and relaxing space. We're located near the meeting point of Somerset, Devon, and Dorset, between two Areas of Outstanding Natural Beauty, making us an ideal base for any type of holiday. Many guests also stay with us on their way to Cornwall. What makes us special? Along with the paddock and a World War II pillbox giving you a glimpse into Britain’s WWII defences, we provide a generous continental breakfast hamper, often enough to enjoy at lunch too. We also partner with Cricket Saint Thomas Golf Club, offering great value, scenic views, and even a cooked breakfast. Most importantly, we take pride in offering excellent, traditional service to ensure you feel welcome throughout your stay.

As your hosts, we really love welcoming guests and hearing about their travel adventures. Living in Somerset, such a beautiful part of the UK, brings us great joy, and we feel privileged to share this peaceful space with others. We are a family-run guesthouse, so we’re passionate about providing high-quality, traditional service. You may even spot our children playing in the paddock, which adds to the warm, family atmosphere. As a family, we enjoy good food, rugby, DIY projects, eating and socialising, golf, working on our campervan, more hearty food, music and beach days—always with ice cream! And yes, we really love eating! Warm Regards Gregg and Hollie
