Clean and very comfortable. If I can make a suggestion the only thing that would improve it would be a small table in the lounge to put your cup/glass on.

There was ample wardrobe space. The views of the surrounding hills were lovely. The cottage was perfectly situated for easy access into Wedmore and the local shops plus, of course, the three pubs.

A great location for visiting the area and we loved Wedmore, a lovely friendly village. Lots of places to eat out within walking distance. We enjoyed several cycle rides direct from the cottage.
