  • "We had a very relaxing three days here to visit family in the village."

    We were lucky with the weather and able to enjoy the garden. The house has a large kitchen and a separate utility room. There is plenty of fridge space, which we found helpful being a large group. I was impressed that despite the house accepting dogs there were no stray dog hairs to be found. The bathrooms are modern and looked new as did the carpets in the property. We were able to walk to the pub. It is quirky but the staff were great and the food tasty. Overall a very comfortable stay.

  • "Canny Croft is a delightful house."

    It is charming, very comfortable, spacious and very clean. It had everything we needed and more. We were made to feel very welcome when we arrived with milk, delicious cake and biscuits and eggs. There was even a welcome pack for our doggy friend. An excellent place to stay.

    Thank you for your feedback, it was lovely to hear that you enjoyed your stay with us at Canny Croft. We're glad you all enjoyed the welcome packs. We hope to see you again soon. Regards Claire and Rob Property Owner

  • "This is a beautiful cottage set in a lovely village."

    20 minutes drive from the local beach and Glastonbury. I would definitely say you would have to be a driver to stay here. Even there are local village shops and a restaurant. When we arrived there were fresh eggs to welcome us to the cottage and a lovely welcome pack too. We were a group of 7 and used all the facilities with ample space within the cottage. I would definitely recommend this cottage to anyone wanting to visit beautiful Somerset.
