    Cottage was lovely and served our needs very well, its more modern inside than the photos on Booking.com suggest so this was a welcome surprise. Very well stocked with basic amenities (dishwasher tablets, salt, pepper, olive oil, toilet roll,...

    Besides being a great base for exploring Somerset, The Stables are possibly the most well-equipped holiday house we have stayed in. Andrew and Julie are pleasant and welcoming hosts, and we had a great stay.

    Really clean, with a lovely garden. location is very quiet and peaceful. Footpaths start from the property. Beautiful part of the world. Hosts couldn't have been more helpful. (it was my elderly parents who stayed here)

Andrew & Julie Nixon.
Set in a quiet country lane, on a 220 acre dairy farm, this delightful single storey cottage, now tastefully converted and fully furnished, is ideally placed for visiting the many historic, museums (Fleet Air Arm, Haynes Motor Museum) and Gardens in the area. Plus the Somerset and Dorset Jurassic coastlines are within easy reach. For the walker, cyclist or dog owner, many miles of footpaths and quiet country roads await. Just step out of your front door.
