    There was nothing to dislike.

    We have just had a superb 2 night stay in the Stable Suite, and we can not fault it in any way. On our arrival, we were greeted by Louise, who took us to our room and explained the uncomplicated house rules. The room was very clean and comfortable. Opposite was the Burcott Inn, which serves nice home cooked meals. Five minutes walk is the Ring o Bells, which does excellent food and real ales. The breakfast menu offers a good selection, which included bread/toast made on the premises. Upon leaving we purchased a loaf to take home. Thank you Steve and Louise.

    The room we were in was small, the shower/toilet too, so the basin was in a corner of the bedroom, and no room for an easy chair. It's an historic building so it's excusable. We didn't mind but others might.

    Breakfasts good. Location only about 3 miles outside historic city of Wells and very peaceful. Good pub restaurant in village. Room well-fitted and equipped. Hosts wonderfully helpful and friendly. They mill flour and bake their own bread, marvellous.

    We stayed in the loft and it was light and airy. We woke up to the sound of birds and water and it was wonderful. The breakfasts were beautiful with quality ingredients - I had the grilled halloumi one morning and it was delicious. Really friendly owners and the location was quiet. Loved it.

    Historical building, Lovely large family room, large bed, bunk and sofa, with huge shower room. Louise was an excellent host, sharing information on where to eat locally and what to see. Breakfast was included and was a choice of full English, home made bread(flour made onsite Mill), fruit, yogurts, jams and cereal, teas, coffee(decaf available) a choice of fruit/herbal teas and juices. Ideal location for Wells, 2 miles away!

    Absolutely nothing.

    The property was superb. Attached to a working mill. The rooms had a newly refurbished modern feel making you want for nothing. TV, WiFi, coffee and tea making facilities. Super comfy bed and toasty room, all with the knowledge that the owners are doing their bit for Eco. I managed to get mixed up, (Not hard for anyone that knows me !!) I put the post code in and it was dark and my brain directed me to the Pub across the road that welcomed us with open arms, Guinness and gin were flowing and the fire was roaring, half time came during the Rugby and I checked my phone and Louise text me saying the room would be ready in ten minutes and I wondered what she was talking about as I thought we were in the correct place. Ten minutes later Louise popped her head around the door of the pub and said you’re staying over the road not here. The whole pub laughed with us. We can’t wait to go back and relive my absent mindedness. It was lovely to spend a while talking to a fellow Northerner George. He and his family own the pub. “Up the Clarets George “

    We felt that decor looked tired - not 4 star. I’m sure it would look different in the summer if it was drier and sunny.

    The fact it was a working water mill. It was very comfortable and the breakfast was excellent.

    Louise the host was wonderful and very welcoming. We stayed in the two bedroom family suite - it was very clean and had everything we needed. I thought the price was very reasonable and included the most delicious breakfast. The Guinea pig welcome was also a massive hit with the kids. I would definitely recommend.

    The shower above the bath lacked power but wasn't an issue for me as I only used it once. The bathroom window faces into the garden and there's no frosting on the window, meaning you would have to pull the blind right down for privacy if other guests were around. (Not sure if this is due to the grade 2 listing status).

    Lovely characterful building. We stayed in the stable suite which has a separate sitting room which was ideal if one of us wanted to sleep and the other didn't. The bathroom has a fabulous, deep bath which was a bonus as I only have a shower fitted at home. The breakfast selection was good and cooked perfectly. Nothing was too much trouble. The hosts encourage recycling and don't use disposable toiletries, preferring refillable bottles which is better for the environment. Louise was very friendly, greeting us at the entrance on arrival to show us to our room. The only rule we had to abide by was not letting their cats into the guest accommodation no matter how appealing they were!
