"Fabulous cottage in a very peaceful location."
Cottage very well equipped and comfortable. The host was very friendly and helpful and introduced us to her llamas . We took them for a walk and brushed them and for us this was the highlight of our stay. Chilcompton is perfectly positioned for exploring Somerset. We will definitely return. .

"We had a wonderful break at the Old Coach House!"
Our host had thought of everything and was extremely helpful in recommending areas of interest in the local area. Our son's favourite part was meeting the baby guinea pigs and walking the llamas!!
So glad you enjoyed yourselves - there’s certainly loads to see and do in the local area! Hope you’ll all come back again and stay again one day (your son will have to come back again just to see how much the baby guinea pigs have grown!!) Property Owner

"A lovely cottage, very well presented."
A great setting, although the exit from the lane to the A road is tricky at both ends (nothing to do with the property). Heartily recommend the property, and the owner is clearly very conscientious about it. Excellent overall.

"Lovely cottage in beautiful location with a superb host."

"Glastonberry was a lovely small town with lots of crystals."
A guided tour of the prison was worth a visit. The house did not disappoint. Beautiful/tastefully decorated. Very comfortable, clean and to a very high standard. The owners have thought of everything. Was great to arrive to a very kind welcome pack. The garden is lovely with swallows/swifts darting around. The bats fly around at night. We used the games room a lot. More than happy to chill in there at night with a glass of wine, music and numerous games of pool. Would definitely recommend! Regards, Wendy Andy.
