Customer Comments

Selected comment(s) from customers who have enjoyed staying at this property:
  1. Nice comfortable property in a lovely medieval village, larger than I expected. The location was excellent just a few minutes walk to everything and we found some lovely places to walk our little yorkie. The only negative was the little garden, could definitely do with some TLC. Overall, brilliant time had by all. Sept 2012.
  2. This was a lovely property. It was larger than we were expecting and was very well equipped. Its location was good as you were near the coast and Exmoor. It was great for dog-walking. The owner gave us good recommendations for places to visit. I left my handbag at the property by mistake at the end of our holiday and the cleaner rang our landline within minutes. Our daughter was able to phone my mobile and let me know. Fortunately we were still loading the car. I thought this was excellent service from the cleaner. July 2012.
  3. Fantastic period cottage and value for money. May 2012.
  4. Really nice comfortable cottage, has everything you need, good location, lovely walks in the area. Just needs a bit of TLC and bit of a spring clean lick of paint. It wasn’t dirty as such. April 2011.
  5. Think my 15 year old grand-daughter’s comment summed it ’I love it , it’s historic’. Aug 2010.
  6. Thyme cottage was lovely just what we hoped it would be clean and tidy plenty of kitchen equipment and towels and spare linen if needed if there was one comment the out side space could do with a tidy up but it was lovely to spend a few days there. May 2010.
  7. We found it to be a charming cottage in a lovely village and would definitely recommend it to someone else. Dec 2009.
  8. We had a fantastic weekend away! Thyme Cottage was absolutely gorgeous and for a New Zealander (whose country was only inaugurated in 1840) to be in a cottage that was built in 1720 was just astounding. If planning another weekend in the UK (we travel abroad mostly) we will definitely book through your company. Jan 2009.
  9. A delightful cottage situated in an excellent location. Plenty of pubs and restaurants nearby and great walks right on our doorstep. April 2009.
  10. Lovely cottage of a good quality. Great for families with brilliant park just 5 mins away. May 2009.
  11. An interesting part of the country to explore. Varied scenery from moorland to deep ravines, beaches to picture postcard villages, Somerset has them all. A beautifully appointed property in a lovely medieval village. July 2009.
