"This is our third visit and we absolutely love it."
The owners are friendly and very helpful and I would recommend this property to everyone.

"It is a very clean and comfortable cottage set in peaceful surroundings with pleasant views."
Thank you so much for your kind words. We are so pleased you appreciated the countryside surroundings and views. Property Owner

"Lovely bungalow, very clean, very quiet and peaceful"

"The bungalow is near the owner's farm who tend 3 horses."
The property is very rural, a 20 minute walk to the village which supports 2 pubs and village store. You have to drive whereever you go, which you is not ideal. The White Horse Pub has restricted opening hours 12-2pm and 5-10pm, be sure to book a table even if you only want a drink as they refused to serve us when we called in at 1.30pm on 11th August 2024. The owners of the property were very nice and gave me a bottle of champagne for my birthday on 11th August. If you fancied a walk, the road is very narrow, no pavements and no lights if you wanted to walk back from the pub in the evening. We left the property after 2 nights, it really did not suit us.
We are so disappointed to receive your feedback. All of our small team at Wellfield work extremely hard to ensure the vast majority of guests enjoy a peaceful break at our rural retreat. Upon arrival at the property, some 1.5hrs ahead of check in, some of your first words to me were along the lines of ‘this is too rural for me/us’ and unfortunately the basis of your review is focused upon the situation of the cottage, which is easily identifiable on Google maps and the like, and shows that we are in a very quiet, peaceful location which the majority of our guests appreciate (which numerous other reviews attest). Country roads in the main do not have pavements and streetlights but we leave torches for the use of our guests who may choose to walk into the village (less than one mile distant). I am sorry about your experience at one of the village pubs. Obviously this is outside of our control but we will look into this further and cease recommending if appropriate. We are sorry that a possible lack of research into the location prior to booking has resulted in our being admonished for simply striving to provide a comfortable, clean holiday cottage with expansive rural views in a traditional Somerset village where our guests’ enjoyment is paramount.

"This cottage is a lovely place to stay, it’s very peaceful with lovely views."
The hosts are very welcoming & simply cannot do enough for you. We found that the cottage had plenty of room for us with plenty of storage. The garden area is lovely to sit in & is quite a good sun trap. We will certainly revisit at some point in the future, thank you Yvonne & all.
Thank you so much for such kind and positive feedback. We would be absolutely delighted to welcome you back to Wellfield in the future. Property Owner

"Thank you for a lovely stay."
The cottage is well kept, clean and homely. We appreciated the little extra home comforts, and bits and pieces left for us to use including garden recliners, washing up liquid, cleaning products and tin foil. The owners live nextdoor, and they are very welcoming and pleasant. The welcome tray with milk and fruit shoots for the children was very appreciated. The information left in the cottage about the local area was handy, we collected leaflets on our travels and included these in the folder. We were so impressed that we booked again for next year. The rural location was just up our street, and the peace and tranquility was very needed. Wellsfield Cottage is a little hidden gem
It is so kind of you to leave such positive feedback. We can’t wait to welcome you back next year and will keep our fingers crossed for some lovely weather! Property Owner

"Excellent cottage in a wonderful rural setting."
Wild deer roaming in the adjacent fields. Very helpful owners and nothing too much trouble. Private parking right by the property & a really quiet, secure location. If you're in search of peace and quiet this is the place for you!! Thoroughly recommended.

"A beautiful well maintained cottage."
Very well equipped. Stunning location very peaceful. Although our stay was short this cottage has everything you could ask for. A lovely welcome pack was received. The pub at the end of the road serves excellent food. Definitely recommend staying at Wellfield Cottage.

"We have just returned from a fantastic stay at Wellfield Cottage."
The cottage is cosy, comfortable and well maintained. The host family are welcoming and helpful but not intrusive. We were left the best welcome pack we've ever had which included; tea, coffee, water, biscuits, milk, hot chocolate and fresh flowers. It is truly the best cottage we've stayed at to date. The beds were so comfortable it was a wrench to leave them. The kitchen was well equipped, there was even washing up liquid and bin bags, we were also provided with rechargeable night-light torches, which were extremely useful. In fact the cottage was so cosy that we didn't eat out, we shopped locally and had our meals in the cottage every evening except one. We can recommend Rich's Cider Farm for good quality, locally produced food and drink, but failing that there is a Tesco supermarket in Burnham-on-sea. We were kept company by their cheeky little ponies who were very entertaining. We would definitely stay there again if visiting the area and would highly recommend it to any one looking for a cosy rural cottage which comfortably caters for four. The cottage is conveniently located near to the M5 to make local travel easier up to Bristol & Bath or down to Taunton, and only a stone's throw from Cheddar, Wookey, Glastonbury and Wells. Thank you to Abbie and family, including cats and ponies.
We are absolutely over the moon to receive such lovely feedback. Thank you so much for taking the time to leave such a kind, positive review. We are so glad that you enjoyed yourselves and found the cottage to your liking. We would be delighted to welcome you back again (as would the ponies!) Property Owner

"This was our second time back with these owners, but our fifth visit in total."
The accommodation was excellent, if there were any problems the owners took care of it straight away, and they gave us a lovely welcome and were friendly and helpful. We will be coming back again.
It was so lovely to see you both again. Thank you for your kind words which mean a great deal. Abby Property Owner

"The cottage was well-equipped and comfortable and the setting was very peaceful."
We thoroughly enjoyed our stay. The owners were very friendly and helpful and made us and our children very welcome. When we needed help to adjust the heating, they came and attended to it very quickly. Even though there is a connecting door between the 2 bedrooms (very helpful with small children!), both rooms could still be accessed independently.
-
"A comfortable and well maintained property in a quiet rural location - just what we were looking for and it suited our needs perfectly."
Everything provided for with some goodies and a vase of flowers a lovely surprise on top. A very caring Yvonne and family were there for us if needed, good to talk with and most helpful. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay and would certainly recommend this cottage.
It was lovely to meet you and thank you so much for your very kind feedback. I am delighted you were comfortable and enjoyed your stay. Abby Property Owner

"It’s always a pleasure to return to Wellfield cottage, to revisit places we’ve been in the past and discover new ones."
The quiet surroundings allow you to relax and enjoy your break and the welcome is second to none, like being one of the family. We are looking forward to returning again next year to sample just a little bit more of the Somerset way of life!
Thank you so very much for such lovely feedback. We are always absolutely delighted to see our family friends again and will look forward to welcoming you back next year. Abby & the rest of the crew x Property Owner

"The property was in a lovely secluded, rural setting (like home from home), but close enough to local facilities; shop & pub."
Wellfield Cottage was extremely clean, comfortable and had everything we needed, including sunloungers for when the sun shone! All in all an enjoyable stay :)
Thank you so much for such kind feedback. Likening the cottage to a ‘home from home’ is a really lovely compliment. Property Owner
-
"We were delighted with Wellfield cottage."
It met our needs exactly. The owners came to see us and solved a little problem immediately. The location is out of the village on a quiet lane where we heard the sound of horses hooves more than passing cars. The accommodation was as described and was very comfortable with everything provided to make our stay a pleasure.
Thank you very much for such kind feedback. We are so pleased that you were comfortable and love the acknowledgement of the ‘clip clops’ along the lane! Property Owner

"We have just spent a wonderful week at this property."
We found it clean and comfortable with everything that we needed for a home from home. Beautiful views from the property across the fields. Wonderfully quiet and peaceful and yet local shops and pubs within a short walk. Lots of fantastic places to visit within a short drive. This was a fantastic break from the hustle of normal life and we can highly recommend it.
Thank you so much for such kind feedback. We are so pleased that you appreciated our rural situation - and the accordant peace and quiet. Property Owner

"Wellfield Cottage was just right for a week during May half term for myself, husband and child."
We were impressed by the cleanliness, attention to detail, and how well everything worked in the cottage. We had everything we needed which isn't always the case. The location is beautiful and quiet, we spotted a deer one morning while washing up. It's also close to many beaches, historic towns and caves. The owners went out of their way to check on us if we bumped into them and help with any enquiries. It's quite a gem really and we would rebook.
Thank you so much for your kind words, in particular in relation to the cleanliness which is always our priority. It was lovely to meet you and we would be absolutely delighted to see you again. Property Owner

"Yvonne is a lovely host nothing to much trouble for her, cottage was like a home from home."

"We had a very good holiday at Wellfield Cottage."
The property was clean and comfortable and in an excellent location for us - not far from the coast and with excellent access to the quiet country lanes for leisurely cycling. The friendly and helpful owners have added extra little touches such as some welcome goodies and fresh flowers - and even a filled bird feeder in the bushes outside the door! We hope to return next time we visit the area.
-
"We had a lovely stay at Wellfield Cottage and enjoyed the all round views especially seeing the two deer in the meadow opposite and the ponies in the paddock."
We were treated to many birdsongs too. It's location means it's not too far to anywhere and would recommend a visit to Cleve Abbey nr. Watchet. Yvonne was most helpful and friendly nothing was too much trouble. Hope to come back soon. Gwyneth Spittle

"A spotlessly clean property."
Comfortable beds. Well equipped. A very helpful owner in Yvonne who quickly managed the slight problem we had on the Sunday. Lovely welcome pack and the milk in the fridge, tea/ coffee biscuits were very welcome. The local pub in the village served good food but you will need to book especially for the Sunday. A helpful information pack. Do go to Tyntesfield and Wells. A good quality property and we enjoyed our stay.
Thank you so much for your very kind words which mean a great deal. Cleanliness and the comfort of our guests are our top priority. Property Owner

"We had a lovely 4 night stay at Wellfield cottage."
The location was so quiet and peaceful and the owners were really lovely and helpful.
-
"Loverly peaceful, outlook poor, however sun facing, and private, even a woodpecker around each morning."
Thank you very much for your feedback. We openly acknowledge in our ‘welcome’ note that we are working hard to improve the outlook towards the barn and stables, but in the interim, we hope that the open views of the Somerset countryside and our accordant rural, peaceful situation provide balance in this regard.

"We have just returned from a week at Wellfield Cottage and must say we have had a very enjoyable time there."
The cottage itself is very well equipped , clean and comfortable. There was a very nice welcome pack containing teas, coffee and cakes. The owners contacted us before with directions to the property and key collection instructions and a text to say the cottage was ready for us to arrive earlier than stated. The cottage is situated down a very quite back lane with easy access to it and ample parking space. The village is only a short walk away down quite country lanes, with a shop, bakery, two pubs and a garage.

"Our second visit to this quiet, secluded property."
Several improvements since our last visit, wifi, new washing machine and blackout blinds. We were welcomed like members of the family, fresh flowers, milk, a selection of tea coffee and treats really made it feel like a home from home. Again we enjoyed our time so much that we booked for next year before our holiday was over.
Thank you so much for your lovely feedback. We were delighted to welcome you back to Wellfield, and will look forward to seeing you again next year. Abby Property Owner

"A wonderful, secluded cottage that we found to be very clean and welcoming."
We really appreciated the welcome pack that included milk and thought that the fresh flowers gave that special home from home feeling. The owners were very friendly and available to give advice, even phoning on the first day to advise us of traffic diversions in the area. We have enjoyed our stay so much that we have already booked again for next year. Thank you very much al those connected with Wellfield Cottage!

"I really enjoyed my stay at Wellfield Cottage."
I enjoyed being out in the countryside and yet only a few minutes from the town of Burnham-On-Sea and the beach. I didn’t spend much time at the cottage because I was attending a study course all week, but most importantly the bed was extremely comfortable and cosy and the hot water was plentiful. It was lovely to meet some of the family who live close-by, but are in no way obtrusive. I would stay there again.
-
"It was lovely to meet the owners."
A thoughtful welcome of flowers, shortbread, tea coffee milk etc. A relaxing countryside property, close to the village and the coast.
-
"Cottage was very clean and comfortable."
Everything we needed was provided apart from WiFi but I understand that will be provided soon. Tea, coffee, milk washing-up liquid all there on arrival. Also scones, jam and clotted cream which was a lovely surprise. Very thoughtful owners.
-
"This cottage is in a very peaceful location but only 5 mins drive from the village, excellent for visiting most parts of Somerset."
The owners live up the road and are very nice but do not intrude at all. There is a very good pub in the village called The Pack Horse, excellent food and very friendly staff but you do have to book. Would recommend this cottage to anyone who wants to “get away from it all”
-
"Lovely quiet place, no disturbance from owners who take out and fetch their horses daily."
Only thing I would say is needs some sort of small light in hall way as very dark and putting big light on can be too much in the middle of the night!.
-
"Very kind and helpful owners."
Fresh flowers, scones,jam&cream on arrival. Also tea&coffee sachets along with a fresh milk in the fridge. This was very thoughtful especially for anyone who might have travelled far without initial essentials. The cottage was very clean and there was a good supply of hand washing liquid that is desirable at any time but especially so during covid. The kitchen drawers had a good supply of cling film and tin foil, though we did not need to use this having brought our own supply. A very good bakery in a nearby village not open all week but worth a visit. Advice would be to make sure you carry some useful items for the kitchen food cupboard until until you can get to the local grocery shops. There are plenty of shops around and some very good farm shops, we visited the Ploughmans Farm Shop and found they had a very good selection of ready meals as well as fresh meat and vegetables. This was not a part of Somerset that we had visited before but we found it enjoyable and interesting. As a group of three adults [two adults not very fit] and one eight, year old child, I would think that the flat area around would maybe be good for cycling. Plenty of places to visit by car and we spent an enjoyable day in Glastonbury, as well as visiting Burnham-on Sea. .I would also like to thank the owners for letting us know soon after we arrived home that they had found a pair of spectacles that had somehow got left behind and they have very kindly offered to post them to us. All in all a good holiday break in the Somerset countryside.

About the location
MARK
Burnham-on-Sea 5 miles; Glastonbury 11 miles.
The pretty village of Mark is situated in the heart of the beautiful Somerset Levels, and is criss-crossed by long watery rhynes, which drain the wetlands for pasture, aiding the production of fine Somerset cheese. The village boasts an ancient church, built in honour of St Mark, as well as excellent walking and cycle paths, and a variety of rare species of birds, making it a haven for twitchers! Situated at the mouth of the River Parrett and Bridgewater Bay, the popular seaside resort of Burnham-on-Sea is just 4 miles away. With views across to distant Wales, and 7 miles of sandy beaches and dunes, the town also boasts Britain's shortest pier and some of the most distinctive lighthouses around, as well as the marble carvings of Sir Christopher Wren in its parish church. The Cheddar Gorge, Wookey Hole, Weston-super-Mare, ancient Glastonbury and the cathedral city of Wells are all within easy driving distance. A fantastic location for a varied holiday at any time of the year.
Please note: the property may not be suitable for 4 adults due to the bedroom and shower-room configuration, and would be most comfortable for 3 adults and one child / teen
