  • "[+] Lovely situation with great views over the levels towards Glastonbury Tor."

    Hot tub on deck was great. Enclosed area for dog and plenty of additional walking space worked well. Lodge was comfortably warm. Essential equipment available. Host pleasant and useful local knowledge. [-] Some of chairs not as comfortable as others (e.g. dining chairs). Could have used a couple more bin bags and toilet rolls.

  • "Swan Lodge is in a beautiful location with huge windows giving views across the farm to the Somerset Levels up to Glastonbury Tor."

    The hot tub was a definite bonus, private but when you are in it you can make the most of the lovely countryside view. The location is ideal for visiting the area. We all enjoyed the lodge, my only complaint is we found the furniture seats too wide to sit comfortably and I had to use one of our camping chairs. Cushions would help, we will go again and take some big cushions with us because it was a really great place to stay.

    Very spacious, comfy beds, fully equipped with everything we needed (and more), perfect quiet location (not far in a car from beaches and amenities) with outstanding countryside views. Gated patio for our dog to keep her safe, hot tub is great - property is very well maintained. We had a fantastic stay. Couldn’t have asked for a better lodge or owners.

    It could do with a coffee machine ,but also you could possibly change the mattress on the double bed and king size bed as they were very hard probably would benefit from memory foam ones specifically for people that as bad back problems like myself I have had a operation on my spine I broke part of my back so I have rods keeping the spine together and I found it very difficult to sleep in the bed so I sat on the lay out bit on the sofa and I slept there sitting up.but other then a few things I picked up there was dust on the skirting board behind the bathroom door upstairs and strands of hair the spar was amazing helped with my back pain but it is a great property and I would love to go back in the near future thank you for a lovely holiday at your property and I look forward to go back again .it was my partner who paid for the holiday he don't want his name put there so but mine as i have booked with you before a couple of years ago at Norfolk, so please put Tracey

    Jo and Neil were very friendly and they allowed us to sit in the harrier jet- which made my son's day. The cottage was really neat and tidy, every little thing was thought through including the little fans in the bedrooms. We spent our Christmas there, the handmade Christmas tree was really really cute. We enjoyed every minute of the hot tub.

    The hot tub was amazing to come back to after our daily adventures. The property is is based perfectly which meant we could reach Cheddar, Burnham, Glastonbury and Wookey within 25 mins in the car. We did a walk to Wedmore aswell, which took 40 mins, a lovely village. The beds were nice and firm (could have done with summer tog duvets though, as the property gets very warm on hot days). The owners were lovely and welcoming and let us view the Jet on Sunday morning. The grounds were well kept and clean and each lodge has designated garden space which meant we could play football and cricket without a bother to others. We used the washing machine and clothes airer provided, very handy. Definitely recommend this property to others, we had a blast!

    The views were amazing, we loved the hot tub, the house was very warm and the beds cosy. There is no bath but we managed fine travelling with a 3yr old. The animals are friendly and the kids loved it. Space for 2 cars easily. Lovely hosts who own a plane you can sit in on a Sunday. The space was slightly snug for 6 but we loved it none the less. Loads to do in the local area. A great stay!!

    Despite there being 4 lodges they are very carefully arranged to ensure no one is overlooked. I'm very sensitive to noise, but we didn't hear a murmur from the other 3 lodges throughout our stay. The lodges have great views and are finished and furnished to a very high specification, with everything you need for a plesant stay. The hot tubs are large and sturdy and Jo quietly services them every morning. Castle farm will definately be our first choice when we stay in this area again.

  • "The property was not clean."

    Dust and cobwebs on every wall and ceiling. We moved a coffee table to play a card game and found a moulding banana on the floor along side a thick layer of hair, dust, and more cobwebs. The fridge had an incredibly loud humm but did not work. Mattresses were awfully hard to lay on. May aswel have slept on the floor. All of the doors could use some oil on the hinges, very loud when opening and closing. Ideal location and a stunning property with amazing views nonetheless. Upkeep could be a lot better.

    Thank you for your feedback. It is a shame that you didn't contact us during your stay as we pride ourselves on guests having a great holiday. We live in the farmhouse where the lodges are situated, we visit the lodges daily and provide our contact numbers in the front page of our welcome pack for guests to call if they have any issues. We would happily change mattresses , oil doors , and listen for hums if notified. All 4 lodges are identical and are cleaned by same cleaners which have always been reviewed positively for cleanliness but we are happy to clean again if asked. Property Owner

    The owners Neil and Jo made our stay extra special and very welcoming as we requested a banner and balloons for a very special occasion. The location is rural and very quiet you would need a car to visit various places and get the most out of your stay. The local shops are approximately 15 minutes drive and if walking 30 to 45 minute, however I would recommend driving to make the most of your stay.

    Property was extremely clean, fresh and comfortable and overlooked the most beautiful view. Jo was friendly and helpful, and the dogs gorgeous, gentle and friendly (one of my group is very wary of dogs but totally fell for Billy!). Easy access to Cheddar, Glastonbury, the Tor, Wells and Avalon Marshes nature reserve which is perfect for an easy cycle or birdwatching - IF you can drag yourself away from the peace of the lodge's terrace with its stunning views.

    Otherwise it was a wonderful break. The view from the patio area is one to savour. The beds were comfortable, plenty of towels provided and a fan for each room was also provided. An added bonus was getting to see and sit in the owners decommissioned Sea Harrier...something you'd not normally get a chance to do. Another highlight was the daily visit from Billy the dog who brought his ball to play fetch. The lodge is very well located for various local places of interest and most importantly very peaceful and quiet. The only real noises we heard were the cows mooing and the Buzzards screeching...both were wonderful to hear. We'd most certainly return if we ever visit Somerset again.

We stayed with our 2 children and grandparents and we all wanted for nothing. Both children were mesmerised by Billy the dog. What an absolutely beautiful and friendly dog. Both children now want a collie!! Alpacas, ponies, sheep all at the end of the garden..so quiet and peaceful and my Husband/children loved sitting in the harrier..what a fantastic piece of history.

    We have been in the past and we were not disappointed as it was just as amazing as the first time we visited. We made use of the hot tub every night and loved the visits we got from Billy, he is such a friendly and playful dog. We couldn’t thank Neil and Jo for their help any more, as our car broke down whilst we were down there (we’re from Preston) and we were pretty much stranded down there. They were kind enough to let us leave our car there for a scrap man to collect it, and didn’t stop there as Jo was happy to drive us to the nearest train station, which was a squeeze with all of our luggage in her mini, we made it work. We look forward to seeing the two new additions to your site when they are completed as they look amazing already. We will be back and hopefully you’ll remember us as the two who’s car broke down aha.

What more could you ask for.....we loved our visit from Billy the dog! We made full use of meeting all the animals on the far. Added bonus was being able to sit in the cockpit of a Sea Hawk Harrier!! The only thing that I would say is study the route the sat Nav tries to take you down. My sat Nav took me through a field to get to the house. It was a horrid drive through the field for my car... did not sound healthy. We got stuck in the mud a few times! That road is better suited if you have a 4x4 for sure. But there is a main road that will take you to the property....my sat Nav was just adamant to destroy my car. But this is no fault of the property!! It’s google maps fault!

    The hot-tub was fantastic and definitely a highlight of the holiday, and the children were heart-broken to leave Billy, the super-friendly farmhouse dog, behind. Neil and Jo were delightful hosts and couldn't have been more welcoming. The lodge was bright, airy and impeccably clean but our 13 year old found the bunk bed too narrow to sleep in uncomfortably. The upstairs bedroom has low ceilings to either side of the bed and even my relatively short parents hit their heads several times when getting in and out of bed in the night. We also found a lack of pots and pans in the kitchen. If there had been a visitors book I would have written this feedback in it as I really didn't want to put it on here and these things shouldn't deter anyone from staying there as it really was a gorgeous place.

The property

This sumptuous lodge which is one of four identical lodges rests amidst open countryside, looking idyllically over the Somerset levels with spectacular views of Glastonbury Tor.

The village is a mile outside the picturesque and historical village of Wedmore, and 8 miles from Glastonbury.

The property boasts an open-plan living area including fully fitted kitchen, with light flooding in from bi-folding doors that bring the outdoors in.

There are three bedrooms; one upstairs king-size room with an en-suite, the other downstairs king-size and children's bunk bedroom share a fully fitted wet room.

Outside there is a sheltered patio area with its own hot tub and outdoor furniture.

Set within a rural location, with amazing views of the surrounding countryside, guests may want to relax in the hot tub or make the most of fantastic walks or cycle rides in the immediate area.

The superb property is an ideal base for exploring the many attractions that Somerset has to offer, for nature lovers the Somerset levels, Mendip Hills and Polden Hills and for families the coastal beaches of Weston Super Mare, Burnham on Sea, nearby Cheddar Gorge and Wookey Hole.

It is a great location for family days out to Puxton Adventure Park, Longleat Safari Park, Brean Leisure Park and Brean Water Park.

The nature reserves at Westhay and Shapwick Heath are a must for birdwatchers while Wells Cathedral and Glastonbury Abbey provide the cultural heritage of the area.

Street is nearby for those looking for a designer bargain at Clarks Village and a visit to Somerset wouldn't be complete without a visit to Thatchers Cider with its restaurant and shop,or the more rustic experience of Wilkins Cider Farm just down the road.

Taunton, Bath and Bristol are all under an hour so provide perfect choice for day trips.

This lodge is perfect for couples and families at any time of year and the owners also have their very own Sea Harrier jump jet for you to sit in.

Guests are also spoiled with the site of their neighbours in the next field; Jeffrey, Percy and Albert the alpacas and Dottie and Minnie the miniature horses.

Note: This property has a Good Housekeeping bond of £500.
