Photos and Description of this South Somerset holiday bungalow Clanville Manor holidays: Ground floor or cottage holiday units sleeping 6/4

Lone Oak and The Tallet are self-catering holiday units for families or couples, situated on our beef farm in Somerset. Lone Oak is ground floor accommodation, suitable for guests who may need additional support when walking; it has three bedrooms, a large kitchen, a sitting room, and open views over our fields from the back bedroom. You may see rabbits or a buzzard, and our cows and calves will come to the fence when they are grazing that field! The Tallet was originally the hay loft and wash room for the Georgian Farmhouse; it was converted in 1995 into a holiday home, keeping the flagstone floor and the original stone staircase. It has a double room and a bunk bedroom; downstairs is open plan. Guests staying in both cottages have use of the swimming pool and childrens play equipment in the back garden of the farmhouse. The pool is open in June, July and August. You can also walk or picnic along the banks of the River Brue where you may see badgers or a kingfisher.

Lone Oak

koeyjosh Durham
Review Submitted: September 19, 2009 Date of Stay: July 2009
The lone oak provoded an excellent base for our weeks holiday. The surrouding area of somerset and longleat was all we expected it to be and more. As for the cottage itself, it was very comfortable, and had all the facilities we required. A bath would have been nice for the little ones, but the shower was adequate. The beds were all extremely comfortable.On arrival we found the cottage was very clean and everything was in order. The owner of the property was polite and very helpful. The decor of the cottage was beginning to look a little tired, but thats just that is the only thing I could find fault with. The swimming pool which is located 5 mins walk away was just the right size to get a good swim. The changing facilites were under renovation when we visited, but sure they will measure up when completed. I would recommend this property to any of my friends.
Owner's Response: Thank you very much for your informative review. We are glad that you enjoyed your holiday in Lone Oak.

We have been aware that only one shower room for up to six guests is less than everyone is used to at home, so the builders are starting another shower room at Lone Oak this month, and it should be completed by December. This will greatly improve your comfort.

Our second cottage, The Tallet, is more suitable for families with pre-school children as it has a bath, and many other essentials for young children. There is a baby bath at Lone Oak, and the shower has hand rails so can be used by children with parental supervision.

Lone Oak is also suitable for those with mobility problems, (Level M1) with handrails and no stairs.

The swimming pool, which is available in June, July and August is situated in our farmhouse garden 5 minutes from Lone Oak-the changing room is now complete.

Families staying at Lone 'Oak are welcome to bring a picnic down to the play area in the farmhouse garden, which has a climbing frame, swings, a Wendy House & ride on toys.

Longleat is a particular attraction in the area, but there are many more-Wookey Hole, Cheddar Caves, Bath, Yeovilton Air Museum, Haynes Motor Museum, Street Factory shops and many National Trust properties.

Do come to Clanville Manor Holiday Cottages, and enjoy all that Somerset has to offer!

Cosy & Peaceful

Review Submitted: September 2, 2009 Date of Stay: August 2009
The property was very clean and well equipped - definitely a home from home. It's only a few minutes drive from Castle Cary, which is full of character with a couple of nice pubs. Easy access to so many other places of interest, too - we really loved Wells.
Everything was well organised, with lots of information easily to hand. This cottage is perfect for anyone who's a little frail, with grab rails and easy access shower. Sally was very helpful, but absolutely not intrusive. You are left in peace at the cottage, but help and advice at hand.

We were only there for 2 nights, so didn't really get to explore the immediate locality ( and the weather was poor, so the pool was out of the question), but it would be a stunning location on a lovely summer's day.

On the whole, absolutely matched our expectations, and made for a lovely stay.
Owner's Response: Thank you to the reviewer-Lone Oak is ideal for those with a slight disability; not suitable for wheelchair users. It is also ideal for families, with three bedrooms and a garden that overlooks one of our fields.
