• "A perfect stay!"

  Our hosts, Julie and Stuart, were superb and made our entire family very welcome. The property was cosy, clean and had everything our family of 4 could possible need. We would definitely recommend this property to others. Thank you for the huge chocolate brownie cake, the rides on the go cart and don't forget the tin opener

• "The Granary is a beautiful property offering some peace and quiet and was a perfect place for us to get together as a family for my sister's 60th birthday."

  The hosts, Julie and Stuart could not have been more accommodating. The home made lemon drizzle cake from Julie was to die for and the bottle of Prosecco in the fridge was a lovely surprise. Julie very kindly sent directions in advance which were super helpful as we all were arriving from different directions. The hot tub is maintained daily by Stuart and was simply divine on an evening. We enjoyed using the log burner too which heated the ground floor in no time! There is an abundance of leaflets available at The Granary offering places to visit options but we also found that Julie and Stuart were happy to recommend some places to go too. This is one of the nicest properties we have ever stayed in and would highly recommend this as somewhere to stay for anyone looking for a bit of luxury and/or some peace and quiet.. It was fabulous

  The beds were very comfortable and it was so peaceful. The kitchen was very well equipped, and the lounge had plenty of seating. It was warm and cosy, which was great as the weather outside was awful! The hot tub was well used in between the rain storms! Thank you for a lovely stay.

  Fantastic hosts and the attention to detail was great. Very welcoming to small children (books, videos, smart TV for access to Netflix, Amazon Prime etc) and the hot tub was a great addition for us too. Homemade lemon drizzle cake was greatly appreciated and a lovely touch. Thank you

• "Amazing property with everything you could ask for."

  The most comfortable beds, a real home from home. The hot tub was superb and a lovely way to spend the afternoon after being out all day. Great location for exploring Somerset and Devon as so close to the county border…..highly recommended. The owners were so accommodating when we had car issues on our last day too, thank you.

• "We had a lovely stay at the Granary, the house was spotlessly clean and had everything we needed."

  The owners were very welcoming and friendly and the hot tub was maintained throughout our stay. The cottage is very remote however and people with electric vehicles will find it difficult to find somewhere nearby to charge. There is charging at Wiveliscombe but this only low voltage.

  Thank you for your positive review of The Granary and that you had a lovely stay. We always were possible respond to requests for additional facilities and have indeed prior to the post of your review installed a metered EV charging point at The Granary available for visitors to use at Kwh cost price. Wiveliscombe 4 miles away has 6 EV charging points with the County town of Somerset, Taunton 14 miles away has multiple fast charge EV stations. The Granary is centrally situated to many wonderful attractions which previous visitors have commented on their reviews. Stuart and Julie Property owners Property Owner

  We had the best time and had such warm weather. The cottage was so beautiful and has great facilities, just like home. Beautiful little villages around the area and central to all coastal areas. We drove all over Somerset and Devon and found some real gems we hadn’t seen before. Well worth a stay here and highly recommend this place.

  Stuart & Julie were so helpful. The property is beautiful & very well equipped. We loved our time there & will return in the future. It is a lovely place & lots to do & see. Our favourite holiday destination so far. Would thoroughly recommend, it is 1 of the nicest holidays we have ever had. Lots of little market town & villages not far away, & some lovely country pubs.

• "PERFECT:) The Granary is a wonderful place to stay."

  We visited with Mum, Hubby, Son and girlfriend and dog. Everything you could possibly need is on hand for everyone's needs. Downstairs bedroom was a must for us. Julie and Stuart were there if needed, but were never intrusive. Hot tub was checked daily (even our dog didn't know Stuart had been). I had asked about a blender before leaving home and when we got to the property, there was a brand new one available - wow! Accommodation is cosy, clean and comfortable, plenty of room available for hanging clothes, etc. The kitchen (and equipment) is amazing and so were the scones, jam and cream waiting for our arrival (oh, and don't forget the prosecco). Such a lovely, quiet location with plenty of walks nearby and within relatively easy (lots of winding roads) reach to many wonderful places to visit. Wivvy is a nice town to visit and we loved Bampton (you must visit 'Spelt' - excellent food). Would I recommend The Granary - ABSOLUTELY. Thank you Julie and Stuart

  It has all you need to enjoy your holiday. The owners have thought of everything with lots of additional extras and touches. Thank you for the lovely brownies and fizz on arrival, much appreciated after long journey. The most comfiest beds we have ever had in a holiday cottage. The Granary is in a great location with lots of places to visit nearby. Our favourite being the horse drawn barge at Tiverton. Would recommend and defiantly stay again if in the area.

• "The Granary is beautiful."

  Set on the border between Somerset and Devon, it really is an ideal base for exploring the west country. The property has everything you could possibly need to suit everyone, including a 'proper' coffee machine and the full sky package. It has been thoughtfully furnished for comfort and style with the hot tub an added bonus. The owners are very friendly and welcoming, leaving the most delicious brownies we have ever tasted! They even left us a bottle of prosecco and a pint of milk for our arrival. The hot tub was cleaned daily and they were on hand with lots of recommendations for activities and eating. A home from home, but better!

  Maybe letting us have the Sky pin would have made it perfect !!!

  Thank you very much for your feedback. We are glad to hear you could not fault the property. We do offer the full sky package including Sky Sports and Sky Movies. The Pin is only to protect children and block adult channels, I am sure you can appreciate this. We look forward to welcoming you back another time! Property Owner

  Teenagers loved the hot tub especially after an afternoon of horse riding. Nice rural location. Well equipped cottage with lots of thoughtful details. The chocolate brownies and welcome groceries in the house were appreciated. Would definitely recommend and stay again if visiting the area again. Gap in the garden fence meant our dog could escape which she took great delight in doing when outside, close supervision required.

  took a little time to locate the property down all the dark and narrow lanes and it may help to put the name on the wall at the start of the farm as the sat nav takes you to a different property. but apart from that it was a delight to stay there and the hot tub was spot on. would recommend and stay again. thanks Stuart for making us welcome.

  The addition of a well tendered to hot tub allows you to relax and indulge yourself at the end of a day out. The owners go out of their way to make sure you have everything you need.

• "Stuart & Julie were extremely welcoming and helpful."

  The house was clean and homely, the scones delicious!! What would be helpful would be instructions on recycling and how to use Sky. The signal we realise is not brilliant and they have done everything to strengthen it, but we still struggled, probably because we’re technophobes!! But no complaints, lovely part of the UK would stay again no hesitation.

  Thank you very much for taking the time to leave feedback following your stay at our cottage. We are always on hand to answer any questions and deal with any issues, and we are very sorry you had difficulties with the Sky system during your stay, this was addressed as quickly as possible and was as a result of damage caused by a previous guest, we hope it didn't have too much of an impact on your holiday. We are really glad to hear you enjoyed your stay and hope to be able to welcome you back soon. Property Owner

  Its location is very central, not far from a good road that can get you to key local areas, such as Exmoor, Quantock Hills and the coast, where we did many walks with rewarding views. Relaxing in the hot tub was such a nice treat afterwards. The owners were quick to respond to any queries and provide suggestions for best beaches, restaurants etc. The Bear Inn at Wiveliscombe (this nearby village has a lovely outdoor swimming pool!) was a favourite, as was The Swan in Bampton. Definitely recommend!

  We stay in cottages a lot, and we have never stayed in such a well equipped cottage. Everything was thought of . We went with a dog and a toddler - location was peaceful, but a car is needed to get anywhere. There is a walk for the dog from the doorstep, however it’s not pushchair friendly. Cottage was lovely, gardens were lovely. Could not fault our holiday at all. Would 100% go back and recommend to others.
