Bashford Lodge

Great views and lovely to watch the owners' horses return from the field to the stables and back again later on; all on their own.

This property is first class and is in a wonderful location. It offers modern comforts in a rural setting. The owner is pleasant, helpful and informative. We cannot recommend this highly enough as a venue if you appreciate peace and quiet in a beautiful location with lots of diverse and interesting things todo.

Superb location and a wonderful host. The cottage had everything you could need for a self-catering stay be it spring, summer or winter. The horses added a charm that you will not experience anywhere else.

A really great place to stay and relax. Perfect for access to the beautiful Quantocks, and within easy reach of so many wonderful places in Somerset. But also just as ideal to relax in the well-equipped lodge, enjoying the fabulous views and the comfort of the cottage. Perfect for serious foodie self-catering as well as within easy reach of good gastro pubs. Set up for comfort and a little bit of luxury as well as the practicalities of an active stay in the beautiful, if sometimes wet and muddy, Somerset area - certainly a place to return to ... many times.

fantastic location. wonderful views from the deck. watching the ponies coming down the hill into the stables every morning was a joy. great walking on the doorstep and a local pub serving great food. what more could you ask.

We had a fabulous week in perfectly equipped Bashford Lodge. The views are beautiful, the landscape of the quantock Hills is wonderful and you have lots of places to explore nearby. It is highly recommendable to go on a horse ride with the very friendly owners.

An excellent property with amazing views, a real home from home. Hosts most welcoming with home cooked cake !

Lovely comfortable beds and great outside areas. Great views from the balcony and lots of walks nearby. Although we did not go for the trekking it was quite a sight to watch the horses being brought down from their field to their stables each morning.

A lovely, comfortable and well equipped lodge in a perfect setting. Three generations of our family and we all spent a very enjoyable week here. Plenty to see and do even if you don't horse ride, although two of our party did and had a wonderful time. Very helpful and friendly owners who left a lovely home-made cake and a bottle of wine and milk in the fridge for us. Fabulous views from the balcony and it was lovely to see the horses parading down from the fields first thing in the morning to the stables. We hope to make a return visit!

Lovely relaxing stay with wonderful views and the horses coming in and out an added bonus. We were due to arrive the day following heavy snow fall but good communication with Gill and lots of effort on her part clearing the drive and yard, allowed us to push forward a couple of days and still enjoy our break.

Stunning views Able to walk to a couple of great pub restaurants one just a minute walk the other 45 minutes, Lovely to watch the horses trot down from the fields into the yard every day. Lovely walk from the property to the highest point in the Quantocks

We had a lovely few days in this beautiful accommodation. The Rising Sun pub is a great place to eat and only a short walk away. A superb base for walkers and riding.

Lovely clean we appointed relaxing property.

A beautiful place to stay - lovely spaces and decor, spotlessly clean and very well equipped - and in a stunning location with far-reaching views. Our host was friendly and provided an exellent "welcome" hamper, with milk, bread ,butter ,eggs, marmalade, wine. My granddaughter enjoyed the pony trekking and we all enjoyed watching the horses come down to the stables in the morning and going back on to the hills in the evening. All very relaxing and comfortable!

Gill and Dave were extremely welcoming and made sure everything was taken care of. The property is fantastic and we look forward to returning soon.

Both cottage and owners and location were superb!

You will be impressed with the welcome and the quality and cleanliness of the accommodation

This Lodge was fantastic from location to comfort Lovely owners and value for money We shall be back

We would recommend the accommodation to anyone, and the owners Gill and Dave were very friendly and welcoming. Gill's welcome pack was excellent and well received.

We cannot speak too highly of this property. It is beautifully presented and every care has been taken to provide very high quality holiday accommodation. The owners of the property are to be congratulated for their excellent care and attention to detail. Nothing was too much trouble for them to ensure that our stay was as enjoyable as it could possibly be.

The property is absolutely beautiful and the owners were wonderful. The view from the balcony is second to none. Dave and Gill couldn't have been more accommodating to ensure our trip was the best it could be. They have great facilities making it feel a real home away from home when you get back after a day walking or riding. Wonderful place to stay we'll definitely return.

First class accommodation, fabulous countryside, welcoming owners - we will certainly be back!

Bashford Lodge is a beautiful place to stay. The property has been well thought out and furnished to a high standard. The little extras that the owners supplied were unexpected and thoroughly appreciated. Gill and Dave were on hand to help if needed without being intrusive. The views from the balcony are wonderful . Great to see the horses passing by each day and hear the owls at night. Lots of places to visit nearby.Thank you Gill and Dave for a great week, we hope to see you again.
