The property is just as it looks online and very clean. The surrounding countryside is beautiful. We had never heated a hot tub via a log burner before, but all instructions and equipment were easy to use. Unfortunately, both children got little burns as we had not realised there was a hole in the tub that pumped out extremely hot water. Once we were aware that it was there, we were able to stay clear from it! The property is close to Weston-super-Mare where we spent a great day down by a little beach cove. We would absolutely return to Robins corner for a longer stay.

Only thing missing was a broom/hoover as being nr a farm there was a lot of flies as expected which wasn't to bad when alive but lots was dead all over the floors, also we had perfect weather for our 4 day stay but had it been raining there is no mop as all hard floor throughout. Accommodation itself had everything else that was needed an very comfortable. Owner was a very nice chap who came out to introduce himself an explained a few things like how to sort the hot tub Would recommend as scenery was great an isn't to far from places to visit ie cheddar, longleat
