There is a small selection of books, games and jigsaws. Back into the hall, into the dining room and through to the perfectly equipped kitchen which has an electric hob and oven and fridge/freezer - it is a great space for cooking lazy breakfasts or trying out new recipes.

The cottage was very comfortable and extremely well equipped. The cottage was clean with fresh bedding and all the appliances etc worked well. It was a home from home. The owner even provided a basket of logs for the fire which was great.

Fantastic cottage with everything you need for a short or long stay. We were concerned that you would be able to hear the traffic noise from the adjacent road, but you cannot, so we slept well, even with the windows open. Great location to visit Somerset, Dorset, Devon & Wiltshire. Would be more than happy to stay here again in the future.

Probably the best cottage we have spent time in as a family. It had everything that we needed. Beautifully decorated for Christmas throughout - an absolutely AMAZING Christmas welcome hamper.
