  • "We had a great stay and would certainly stay again."

    The only reason I marked down on cleanliness was because there was a dirty cooking tray in the oven and there was quite a few dead flys and spiders around. This didn’t affect our stay at all. My children loved every minute of it. Especially meeting the cat. It was very nicely decorated and was In a very nice area and very local to shops and activities. It was a home away from home. Thank you very much for having us.

  • "This has been our 3rd stay at the old cottage and as always a pleasure, Only two minor points: 1."

    Smart TV situated upstairs in the games room snug had no signal, just a little extra for the kids if they wanted to watch something else whilst the parents are watching the main TV. 2.Freezer top compartment needs defrosting as ice building up making it difficult for food storage. Other than that, perfect!

  • "A lovely, cosy cottage."

    Clean, comfortable and well-appointed. Bathroom taps need some attention as they're very hard to turn but the shower is good. Everything else is in very good condition. Very convenient for visiting nearby attractions. Excellent pub within walking distance but be sure to book for a meal as it's very popular. The traffic noise was a bit loud at night but it didn't spoil the holiday.

  • "A really nice little cottage in a great location."

    Very easy to get to most places nearby and especially the beach. Was very peaceful but it is near a main road, so if you’re not used to road noise it may disturb you, I’m a light sleeper! Was very clean and well equipped.

  • "Lovely place, enjoyed the welcome pack in the kitchen."

    Well equipped, great to have a mid-size fridge/freezer rather than a larder fridge. Had everything required for our week away, finally got to meet the cat on our last evening. Pub was good up the road. Only drawback was the road noise.

  • "Great experience overall and will no doubt use you again."

    Just a little snag though, when opening the downstairs WC door it gets stuck and makes a horrible screeching noise as it rubs on the floor tiles needs shaving underneath also dinning room chairs could do with felt pads affixed to the bottom legs of the chairs as they also screech when moved around on the tiles. Other than that, all good.

  • "The cottage was well equipped and very cosy."

    Perfect for 3.(We were 2 adults and a 10yr old). Perhaps a bit of a squash for 4 especially if they were all adults. Magnificent shower with plenty of hot water and very comfortable beds and chairs. The side tables need renewing as do most of the pillows. I would have appreciated a brush to sweep the floors and perhaps a bottle of cleaning fluid.

    It is comfortable and very well equipped particularly the kitchen. We had a problem during our stay meaning we had no hot water for several days, however the owners did their best to sort the problem and we were comfortable with heaters and the use of a shower next door. We will definitely be staying at the Old Cottage again in the near future.

    Clean. Loved the table tennis, good table. Well equipped. Needed more mugs. Dishwasher small but efficient enough tablets left for whole week. New chairs and settee since picture, very comfortable. Bathroom very warm for feet. Shower in bath, a grab handle would have been nice. Stairs have gaps at back, so not suitable for small children. Great Broadband speed, we did lots of Zooming, we got 35 mbps. Patchy data and phone signal inside the cottage. Beach and supermarkets about 7 mins drive. Wells cathedral lovely. Hoping to go back.

  • "This is a small but tastefully furnished and decorated cottage which was better than we thought from the photos."

    The kitchen was also well equipped. On the first morning, due to the heavy rain, we had a problem with the drain in the bathroom which was quickly sorted out. The cottage is well situated, we didn't find the adjacent road too loud. Make sure you book if you want to eat at the pub up the road! Don't miss Brean Dean and beach which are beautiful and have all you need for a day at the beach: car parks (preferably arrive before 11am), toilets, café, ice creams, shallow, warm sea perfect for young children, gorgeous walk up Brean Dean... We had a lovely holiday!

    It had everything we needed and was reasonably clean. The only minor points are that being close to the road there was some noise from cars going by the cottage and the kitchen table, whilst fine for 2, would be quite cramped for four, especially 4 adults.

  • "It was nice."

    I don't think it's suitable for a family with young children. Very expensive area so won't be going on holiday to Weston super mare again. But it was an experience. Wookey hole and the pier were awesome. Had some paranormal experiences in the cottage. I don't know how old the building is due to never meeting the owner. But did see a book illustrating pictures of refurbishing the cottages.
