The facilities of the cottage were excellent and the owners very welcoming. We can recommend a visit to the Community Coffee Shop and Fish and Chip van on Monday. Lots of National Trust properties to visit and most had additional country walks.

May Blossom Cottage is cosy and very clean. We have spent five weeks there this summer and thoroughly enjoyed our stay. There are beautiful views from the upstairs windows. From the sitting room window the view is of the cottage garden. In good weather there is a small terrace with garden furniture, and most important, a parasol. Katherine and BriaRead moren are great hosts. Thank you. Hide

Wonderful central location for Somerset enabling us to explore the county, but we did not feel safe walking down the country lane to the village despite torches being provided. The accommodation was very comfortable and had everything and more provided such as dishwasher and washing up liquid, hand soap, toilet rolls, ample towels and bedding. All Read morehousekeeping instructions very well explained eg cooker, disposal of rubbish etc We had a very relaxing holiday despite the variable weather. Hide

Our stay at May Blossom cottage was a delight. The owners, who live next door, made us very welcome. Being able to sit outside among the flowers with a parasol to provide shade from the sun was particularly nice. The cottage was very clean and well equipped. We have another booking later in the summer and are looking forward to staying again.
