    The cottage is immaculately clean, well equipped and warm. Debbie was welcoming and helpful. It is situated in interesting countryside with nearby nature reserves and also close to local towns of Glastonbury and Wells.

    Stayed here for 4 nights with 2 teenagers, 2 adults and a wheelchair using child. Cottage was very clean and so quiet and peaceful. Lots in the local area to do, and had games room on site for the older children.

    My mum and father in law were delighted to have their own en-suite shower room and a downstairs room for my mum who is less mobile . The house was toasty warm and very well kitted out (maybe a teapot could have been the cherry on the cake ?!) The welcome pack including scones , cream & jam was a nice touch too. Great location for exploring Somerset .
