Lovely welcome with cake.. Extremely clean cottage and well kept gardens also beautiful surroundings. Great wood fire with all the firewood you need also an absolute privilege to be allowed to rob the orchard. Lovely family, cat and dogs. We would certainly return. Martin Mulligan.

The property was immaculately clean and the owners were so helpful.. We brought our 7 month old baby with us and they thought of everything. They left us a cot, two different styles of high chair, toys and an inflatable baby bath. They even kindly gave us neurofen for him when he was struggling with teething. There was just about everything we could think of and there was a lovely garden to sit in.

Mrs Wasilewski, August 2020

Like a home from home.. Great location, clean, cosy, warm, very well equipped and appointed, great space outside, wood provided for the woodburner, good communication from the hosts and a lovely lemon drizzle cake to welcome. Couldn't ask for more

Dr Leach, August 2020

Beautiful and relaxing cottage that was home from home.. My wife and I went with our two year old and we had such a lovely time. The owner Vicky was so helpful and welcoming and was there when you needed but left us to ourselves and gave us the complete break that we much needed. The weather wasn’t great but it made no difference to us as the cottage and surroundings made it so comfortable. It has everything you need, including a lovely little log burner for those chillier nights and a lovely garden opposite for when the sun does come out. The bed was extremely comfortable and the decor of the cottage made it feel so clean and cosy. When we did venture out we found things to do including Wookey Hole, Glastonbury Tor and Clarke’s shopping village. Plus a couple of lovely local walks. All in all a fantastic break and we can’t wait to come back! Thanks Vicky!

Everything about this cottage was just perfect.. From the minute we arrived after a long journey we felt at home, this continued throughout our stay. A really well thought out and executed little hideaway that was just perfect. We have stayed in many holiday cottages and often thought them good but this one simply out shone all the rest. Thank you for a wonderful stay.

Everything we wanted for a getaway in the country, to have a much needed quiet Christmas.. The tree was decorated, a lovely cake awaited our arrival as well as the log fire. Such a warm, cosy and clean cottage, and Vicky and John were so friendly. Would recommend this cottage to anyone wanting to recharge their batteries, and your not too far from places to visit. Thankyou for all the lovely touches and the loan if your friendly cat

Excellent welcome from the owner, who even made us cake and left fresh blackberries at the door one day.. Very well placed for walks from the door out to the Levels. And blissfully quiet!

Drovers Cottage is located in a beautiful location within easy reach of all towns and attractions.. For a peaceful week in beatiful unspoilt countryside this is the place.The cottage itself is well equipped and very clean.Its worth staying at the cottage just for the wonderful super king size bed.The owners,Vicky and John were very friendly and welcoming without being obtrusive.Already planning to return next year.

Mrs Kelly

One of the loveliest places we have stayed on holiday.. It was very rural and consequently very quiet. The only sounds came from the birds and the sheep. The cottage itself was excellent - plenty of room for 2 people, very clean and it had everything we could possibly need. The provision of fresh flowers and some home baking just topped it all off.

Drovers Cottage exceeded all our expectations.. This was by far the cleanest most comfortable and well equipped cottage we have stayed in so far. The area was so peaceful and my husband fully enjoyed cycling the quiet country lanes straight from our door. We would definitely come back. Vicky and John were the perfect hosts extremely friendly but discreet. Thank you for a wonderful break.

Mr Hampshire

The owners were pleasant and helpful but discreet.. The cottage was very clean, tidy and well set up. Nice pictures on the walls. Lots of books and small touches like fresh garden flowers and also there was cake when we arrived. It was too warm for the wood burner but I imagine it would be nice and warm for a winter hideaway and there is a private garden where we sat in the autumn sun.

A lovely, comfortable, cosy and homely cottage in such a peaceful location.. We were made very welcome by Vicky and John and really enjoyed staying in this idyllic location. It was very clean and delightful to stay in with such a comfortable bed and oh, so quiet. The private cottage garden was very relaxing and peaceful to while away time in. We wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Drovers Cottage.

I would just like to take this opportunity to thank Vicky and John, the owners of Drovers cottage.. Their customer service is exceptional and their property is immaculate. I would describe it as a home away from home. Cosy, comfortable, charming, welcoming and equipped with all you would need for a weekend stay all the way through to a 2 week stay and more. Its the little touches that make the difference, like a home baked cake left in the kitchen for your arrival. I cant recommend this property enough!!! A real gem! :-)

Mrs Harrison

The photographs did not do this cottage justice.. Everything in the cottage was of the highest quality, The location was superb, tranquil settings but close to lots of attractions. The owners went out of their way to make us feel welcome. Home made cake in a tin, tea and coffee and fresh milk were waiting for us. Cannot fault this holiday home.
