  Had a lovely bank holiday weekend stay with my family of 10 at the Old Stables.

  ( 6 adults & 4 Children) The conservatory has wonderful views and the property was warm and welcoming. 3 beautifully appointed upstairs bedrooms all with en-suit bathrooms . The ground floor didn't quite work for us as there is a room with bunk beds and a pull out sofa in the lounge. As some of the children were young they needed/wanted to be closer to their parents so we had adults using the sofa bed and bunks. That said, there were 10 of us and feel it would be perfect for 3 couples upstairs and older children on the ground floor. The Kitchen was very well equipped with everything and I mean everything you could think of... it has a 'shared' laundry room and other than not finding a broom , has everything available to use. I think my only negative was, there is a separate attached East Wing. This became occupied on our second day. There are no boundaries set and it was a little uncomfortable when the people there entered through the shared laundry room and sat on the garden chairs directly outside the stables. Looks like we are sharing a garden, they said !.........I couldn't say either way as I didn't know either. The pool house is warm and the water is too, great for young children . There are towels to use and although a little dated, was a great hit with the children. To get to the pool house, you need to go out through the garden and this needs better signage or even ' a sign' Overall, a lovely place to stay but maybe needs an easier booking system of pool sessions and some clarity of the grounds use with others!...

  The Old Stables is a lovely barn conversion with stunning views.

  It is comfortable and well equipped. But there are some issues that need sorting out. First and foremost is gaining entry on arrival. We were given a four digit code to access the key safe for entry to the property. There is no key safe, so we had to text the owners. (They have impaired hearing so voice calling is out of the question.) Fortunately they live close by and a lady came and let us in. Thankfully it wasn't raining while we were waiting. There are several windows with broken latches. A shower cubicle with a light that doesn't work. A heated towel rail that leaked water. The patio doors leading from the conservatory are very difficult to lock from the inside, we could only manage it from the outside then re enter the property through the kitchen patio door. These issues didn't spoil our stay but they need sorting out especially as this is a very expensive place to stay. Don't be put off from booking this property, the swimming pool is a real bonus and there are beautiful walks on your doorstep.

  Wonderful luxury cottage in a great location. The cottage is only 10 minutes drive from Bristol however feels like you're in the middle of the countryside, amongst a working farm. The kitchen and dining room are extremely spacious with a well-stocked kitchen with everything you need to stay in and cook. The sauna, hot-tub and table-tennis table were all a lot of fun. The host was extremely helpful and provided us with all the information required for the trip and allowed us to stay late on check-out day. High-chair and cot were provided for our baby. We had a wonderful time here!

  I have stayed in many holiday homes over the years but none as well-equipped as this one, it was a real bonus.

  The house is beautiful, spacious and comfortable and suited all ages including the children. Everyone loved the pool! The view from the garden room is stunning and the nearby walks (especially over to the viaduct and its nearby pubs) were great. Visits to nearby Bristol, Bath, Weston-super-Mare and Cheddar Gorge made it an ideal location. If I had just the tiniest niggle it would be to have more comfortable sofas in the lounge but really, we loved our stay there and would recommend it to anyone.

  We enjoyed the most wonderful two night stay at The Foxes Den which was so peaceful and relaxing.

  Beautifully furnished with lots of room and storage options. The bed was super comfy and it had gorgeous fox bedding and cushions. We loved meeting the goats and watching them from the hut (they were such a highlight!). The owners are lovely and made us feel extremely welcome. Thank you for the kind treats on arrival. We can't wait to visit again for a longer break!
