  Avonside is a beautiful cottage, the conversion is innovative, well designed and executed, the photographs don't really do it justice.

  It is in a stunning location right alongside The Avon with a pretty enclosed garden, safe for the dog. We were met by a generous "welcome pack" with everything to start off our visit, and there are local pubs and shops, including an excellent Co-Op within short walking distance. Pill itself is a charming village with an interesting history.Several of the pubs in Pill do food, but we had an excellent Christmas lunch in relaxed surroundings at the Rudgleigh Inn, a short drive away in Easton in Gordano. We booked a Christmas Eve visit to the National Trust's "Christmas at Tyntesfield" which was very special, and enjoyed a long walk at Kings Weston House where the dog friendly cafe provided a very welcome retreat from the rain. Just above the cottage there is a large open area, accessed just below the viaduct, for great walks hence a very happy dog.There are many towns and places to visit in north Somerset, visits to family and friends in the area took up much of our time, we will have to make a return visit. Access to the house is via steps but good hand rails are provided, and parking is a short distance away. The cottage provided very comfortable accommodation and everything we needed for a very relaxing stay. Thank you, we will return.

  Thank you for a wonderful stay and first holiday as a family of four!

  The cottage is a great location, around 20-30mins drive from Cheddar, Clevedon, Bristol, Bath and Weston Super Mare so we found plenty to do in the local area. Local pub and restaurant a short walk away. Chew Valley Animal farm was a great day out for us just a short drive away and Chew Magna has some lovely restaurants. Cottage is perfectly equipped and the owners are lovely, welcoming us with fresh flowers and eggs from the farm, as well as a daily chat and recommendations for the area. My son loved the free roaming animals and built a special love for the black lab, Betty, he was very sad to leave her. Bedrooms are great size and the whole place was cosy and like a home from home, we were all very sad to leave and hope to stay again soon. Thank you Jane and Dave for a great week.

  Avonside cottage is very quirky property - quite small but very comfortable and the location is super peaceful and quiet (apart from the odd seagull fight over the water!

  ). It's definitely not suitable for anyone with mobility issues due to the fact that you can't park right next to the house and there are steps get into the property. The kitchen has everything you need and the owners very kindly put milk and some treats in the fridge for us, which was lovely. The house was very clean and comfortable and being by the water meant the air was fresh and cool even on hot days. There is a co op store very close by and a bus goes regularly into Bristol, meaning there is no need to tackle city parking! The drive to Weston Super Mare is short and Bath isn't too far either. Overall the location is good for anyone who wants to stay put and bask in quiet, or who is willing to travel to see the many sights around Bristol. We had a great holiday.

  Super cozy & warm atmosphere inside.

  Lots of coffee, tea and sugar already there. Liked the welcome Biscuits. Very clean and tidy. Easy to adjust heating controls. Excellent hot and cold running water. Excellent beds, bedding & towels. Somewhat limited range of pots & saucepans. Could do with bigger pots for one pot cooking !!! Cooker could do with an upgrade, though worked fine. But overall very high standard of interior A few small maintenance issues. Fx Sensor Lights for the stairs were not working & need replacing. This would be good for the winter months. ! Exterior stair landing outside entrance door pools water. Could do with drain holes. However we totally loved our stay there and will definitely come back another time. Love Chris & Helle

  Our stay at The Loft At Nordrach Lodge was great.

  The loft had everything we needed for a self catering holiday, the packet of biscuits left on arrival was a lovely touch. It was in a great location for exploring the surrounding areas, some beautiful walks nearby. The place was clean and tidy, and they had thoughtfully got out the high chair and put up the travel cot for us before arrival which was very helpful. The beds were some of the most comfortable we have used and we all slept fantastically. Check in and out was easy with the key box and the message before arrival with detailed directions (so the sat nav didn’t send us to the wrong place) was very useful. We would definitely return to the property again if we are visiting the area.
