Felt a little as though embarking on a military operation upon arrival and that my timing (agreed in advance) was inconvenient to the hostess. However much better experience at breakfast & taking a dog not a problem.

Pleasant accommodation in a great area. Room was very cold at night (we did stay through one of the coldest nights of the year) although we found extra blankets this was not until the following morning. Breakfast was good but could have been a little larger if description of a "full English" was truly accurate.

Accomodation was excellent, a little cold in the nights as the heating had been switched off but extra blankets were provided. Breakfasts made to order catering for vegetarians at a reasonable time. Local pub serving evening meals close by. Staff helpful and professional. Would definately stay there again.

Lovely house, exceptionally clean, nice room, comfortable bed, excellent breakfast and hospitable landlady. All of this with a good pub at the bottom of the lane and within a stroll of the West Somerset Line. What more could you want. Very good value for money.
