We had a great stay
The bungalow was lovely. The beds were really comfortable and we had everything we needed for our stay.
The only negative was the sofa & tub chairs - not comfortable at all.

Thank you for your review. I am so pleased you had a very good stay and found that the bungalow was equipped with everything you could need during your stay. We love hearing about our guests experiences during their stay and I am so pleased you benefitted from the free parking along with a comfortable nights sleep in a cosy bed.

Beautiful holiday accommodation
The accommodation was a home from home in a quiet location with everything we needed for our weeks stay.
The only minor point was that when having a shower water would flood the floor from between the screen and frame and we had to stem it with a towel.

Comfortable with good facilities
Good sized rooms, comfortable beds and all the facilities needed for self-catering. Attractive small garden which is not overlooked and catches the sun for most of the day. Quiet and peaceful with very little road noise.

cleanliness. nice garden
would have liked outdoor seating and rubbish bins were nearly full
We booked this property so that we could broaden our options so that our holiday didnt become weather dependent. This property provided a great base to explore the local area and all the attractions. We visited cheddar gorge, Wookey hole, wells weston supermare etc. We would recommend this property really spacious, clean and modern. The onfo provided by the owner also meant that we tried some of the local restaurants which were all very good.

We loved your bungalow.
Thank you for a lovely holiday break. We loved your bungalow and garden. Very clean and well kitted out. Private garden and secure for the dogs. Thank you for the welcome pack. Had a wonderful time. Fab place to stay, so clean and the beds were so cosy. Beautiful place to stay - loved the BBQ and little lights on the summer house very cosy.
A chair in the bathroom would be helpful so you can sit and put your makeup on instead of standing up but I really loved our stay, it felt so at home.
as per above, very nice, very cosy but a daft rule above
the home was very comfortable and clean
As a smoker and having to stand in the street was a little embarrassing as it looked and felt odd. How you can have a barbi but not smoke in the garden is very odd and is the only reason I would not return.

Lovely bungalow
Super comfortable beds with lovely bedding, great location in a nice part of town. Very clean with nice decor. Very well equipped. Beautiful cottage style garden with outdoor seating, parasol etc perfect for a morning coffee in good weather.
The seating in the lounge needs a rethink. The sofa is comfortable for two adults and maybe a child. The armchairs are not comfortable to sit for an evening. A coffee machine would also be a great addition.
