Reviews for this holiday cottage rental in Somerset & Bath, United Kingdom

Somerset & Bath holiday cottage rental rating 55/5
Comfortable well-equipped cottage, friendly owners
Gareth, Anne + the twins  Nantes, France
Review Submitted: April 14, 2009 Date of Stay: April 2009
The cottage itself was everything we had been hoping for; spotless, warm, and well equipped. The countryside is stunning and we actually saw the deer high-tailing it off into a nearby orchard. Eve and Vince made us very welcome and the breakfast provisions which were waiting for us on our arrival were much appreciated.

Wedmore was ideally situated for visiting Bath, Wells and its stunning cathedral and its real town-centre shops and market. We had a good pub meal at the Panborough Inn. The Isle of Avalon is beautiful, but Glastonbury struck us as seriously wierd, with not a normal shop to be seen in the High Street, invaded as it is by retailers of overpriced photos of the Dalai Lama (does he get any of the proceeds?).

We loved our stay, and fully hope to go back next year to enjoy the best value for money holiday rental we've yet stayed in.

What a find. Never been to the west country before, but will definately be back. Ravenswood Cottage is a love, comfortable holiday home that has everything you need. Plenty of space for the kids to play and the owners on site should you need any information or help.
The bikes were put to good use and the local pubs are friendly and serve good food.
There is so much to see within such a short distance, we will definately be back.

wonderful holiday in the country
ceratekate  Oxford, Ct USA
Review Submitted: August 6, 2008 Date of Stay: June 2008
The cottage was immaculate and the scenery was unbelievable. The views of the Mendips were spectacular.
My husband, two sons and I were right at home in the cottage. There were many things to see and do in the area.
The kids appreciated places like Cheddar Gorge and The Wookey Hole Cave, while my husband and I liked walking around Wells. Within a short driving distance you can all enjoy the West Somerset Railway which goes to the seaside town of Minehead, with other things to see at stops along the way. If you don't mind the drive, Stonehenge and Salisbury are an easy day trip away. Salisbury in particular was very rewarding.
The bicycles available at the cottage gave the boys something to do while we relaxed in the garden. Having the owners right next door if we needed anything was nice.We had a great time playing with their dog. If you'd appreciate farm fresh Somerset cider, make sure to visit Wilkin's Cider farm over the hill in Mugley.
We hope to come back and enjoy it all again someday soon.

As good as the photos
spis  Brisbane, Australia
Review Submitted: June 30, 2008 Date of Stay: May 2008
This place is magical. It was very relaxing to sit out the back looking into the valley. Our family spent four nights here and it felt like home. The boys loved the bikes and the space they had to ride them. The cows in the back paddack provided a taste of farm life and the tantem bike entertained us all.

Inside the Play Station was a welcome bonus after four weeks of travel. The cottage was spacious,had comfortable beds,pillows and sofas. The kitchen had everything you needed and Eve had supplied some local goodies.

We found it easy to get to the attractions we had wnated to see: Lyme Regis, Wales, Cheddar, and Bath.

This place is fantastic. We would all recommend it. Great for families no matter what age your kids.
