Vivienne and Andrew were friendly and welcoming hosts. The cottage was comfortable and cozy, just as pictured. We especially enjoyed morning coffee on the veranda, overlooking the beautiful garden. The location was great for exploring the area. Overall a relaxing and enjoyable visit.

A glorious week in the country!
We have traveled a great deal in the west country, and I am delighted to say that this is one of the loveliest and most comfortable places we have ever stayed. It’s a beautiful building, with comfortable furnishings, plenty of space for two, and a very thoughtful arrangement of comfy seating so that the Garden Room feels even larger than it is. The kitchen provided everything we needed for meals at home, and preparing picnics. Vivienne and Andy are fine hosts, and welcomed us like old friends. They have a beautiful garden full of trees, flowers and butterflies, and the property offers a spacious, private outdoor space with a table and chairs. There's also a comfortable covered side porch. While we spent our days traveling, we enjoyed the Garden Room so much that we were content to spend our evenings at home, taking a leisurely walk, and enjoying the beauty of the place. Stay up late and check out the stars on a clear night. It's worth it. The location is rural and peaceful, and just a short drive from so many good walks and beautiful towns and villages. Wells, Frome, Glastonbury, the Mendips, and even the Dorset coast are all within easy reach. You'll find a drawer full of maps and brochures, and a helpful binder of information. When we chatted with Vivienne and Andy, they offered a wealth of additional local knowledge. We loved our visit, and our hosts were delightful. We would love to return.

Short Stay but Pleasant
My wife and I came in and were greeted by the owners. They were very nice and helpful with suggestions for food and fun. The gardens are wonderful. I enjoyed strolling through the woods and sitting quietly on a bench while my wife enjoyed resting in the comfortable accommodations.

Fantastic Holiday.
The holiday was everything we hoped it would be. The garden room is light, bright, airy and comfortable. We loved the area and land around it, also the peace and quiet. Thank you to our hosts who were friendly, helpful and also to Frankie the dog who welcomed us back every time we returned.

If you are looking for a complete sense of peace, comfort and tranquility this is for you. It is tastefully and elegantly furnished yet cosy and comfortable. The surrounding garden and conservatory are just beautiful. The wood burning stove completed a perfect picture. It is very conveniently located for sight seeing and nearby Somerton is handy for food shopping. Wish I had had more rainy days to stay indoors and appreciate it, will just have to book again! Vivienne and Andy were fantastic, warm and welcoming and on hand for anything! 10/10 highly recommend! X
