The place was really lovely and nicely looked after, the people there where friendly and kind and incredibly accommodating.. The area was really nice and couldn't have asked for a better place to escape the busy work of a city.

The location was beautiful, peaceful and secluded.. Cute quirky house. Kids had such a great time, playing in the stream, making friends with the chickens. Farmer so friendly. Few little bits to feedback to owners, double mattress super thin and uncomfy, I ended up sleeping on kids single bed, bathroom lock doesn't work, spatula has no handle, and cupboard with glasses has no handle. The listing mentioned games books and dvds, but none there, (although we did leave a jigsaw behind!) Also lots of cobwebs, and dust in corners, it could do with a spring clean! But overall lovely. Thank you.

Nice cottage.. Friendly host. It was great for our dogs which was the main aim. Nice and relaxed for them. Lovely space to walk nearby and nice longer walks locally. Would really recommend if travelling with dogs. Also a very lovely garden with lots of space to sit out. Very very peaceful. The sound of the water running in the stream outside was lovely to send you to sleep at night.

Mrs Mason, July 2019

The cottage was nice,but could do with updating, which could be hard as it is listed.. However the kitchen was basic and the seating area could do with some new furniture, as what was there was old and uncomfortable, same with the beds. The garden was not enclosed at all which ment we could not let the dog out alone and maybe updated garden furniture to. The WiFi kept dropping in and out ,and the phone signal was bad (but it was nice to be off grid at times) . All that being said it was a nice retreat to get away from it all. The couple who own the property are friendly and made us feel welcome. Some good local pups where you can take your dog ie The Bicnoller arms and The Blue Ball.

Mr Bolt, July 2019

We enjoyed everything.. The accommodation was fantastic and quirky. The weather was amazing. We would recommend a visit to Dunster Castle.

The property itself

Mr Furneaux, June 2019

We really enjoyed staying at the mill.. It was very quirky. It was so peaceful and we loved the little garden space by the pond and listening to the water rushing down the mill race. The mill workings that were left in place were really interesting especially as we went to the water mill at Dunster and the lady explained how the mill would have worked. The location is perfect for exploring the beautiful country side and despite the weather being a bit showery we had a most enjoyable holiday.

This is our second visit, I stayed in this house two months ago together with my daughter and now we came back to stay all our family (4 people).. Great place! Very green around, a lot of nature, fresh air and walks. Very quiet and clean. The house is spacious enough for 4 people, equipped with all amenities. Beds are comfortable to sleep, the house itself is old and romantic.

Mr Gerzon, May 2019

Lovely quiet location within a farm setting, ideal for families but not very young children due to an open pond and stream.. One dog welcome but do need to be kept on a lead outside. Friendly helpful owners

Great quiet location inside green fields, very cozy house!

Mrs Lucas, May 2019

This cottage is a very special place, especially in spring time: lambs, primroses, blossom, what more could you want? Seeing steam trains puffing past at the other end of the field was an added bonus!

Mr Gerzon, April 2019

The owners were very helpful and recommended a great swimming pool nearby and helped make our holiday special by allowing us to feed the lambs.. Amazing location close to Jurassic coast and lots of lovely walks. We felt very safe and relaxed.

It would have been a good idea to mention that the Mill has a couple of very low doors..

Mr Jones

Mr Osborne

Nice people at the farm.. Lovely location and lots to do.

Mr Carlow

Brilliant holiday , owners were very helpful.. Our dog loved it there, plenty of space to run and stuff to see and smell... plenty of places to see only a few miles distant , though we were happy to just chill out on the farm. Even fishing for trout in the stream ,what more could you want.......
