Set in the idyllic Somerset countryside, it is the perfect getaway romantic spot. The facilities are excellent and the Coach House has been converted beautifully, it has all the necessary amenities and is beautifully appointed. The hot tub is the highlight, located in a courtyard next to a former church. It really is perfect for a relaxing evening soak. Rick and Dee were such generous hosts. Loved it all.

Rick and Dee were really friendly and helpful and left us to it once we were settled :) The kitchen was nicely well stocked for cooking, it was lovely being able to cook with the front doors open onto the garden. Our only issue was we couldnât find a chopping board! The hot tub was our main draw to this place and it didnât disappoint! The lights in the garden were a lovely touch too. We will definitely return if we are looking to stay in this area again! We recommend Cary Alpaca nearby too!

Perfect for visiting local attractions with Wells Cathedral, Glastonbury and Cheddar Gorge all between 20 to 45 minutes drive. Local pub, with a friendly atmosphere and good food is a 5 minute walk and there is no better way to end the evening than relaxing in the secluded hot tub. Quirky stairs not an issue, lots of charm and character. Special mention to the lovely hosts Rick and Dee. Thoroughly recommended.
