Myself and my husband absolutely loved every second of our stay at The Whistle! Felt so welcome on arrival, nick and sally left us welcome gifts (2 bottles of somerset cider, cookies and fresh milk!). We've honestly never felt so relaxed! Views are amazing, hot tub was lush! Bed was so comfortable, shower is amazing! Loved the drinking water tap in the hut. Absolutely loved everything at The Whistle. 100% recommend to everyone, we will definitely be returning! It's worth every penny! ...

Stay here if you want to unwind and switch off from the rest of the world. The views are amazing, the hut was fantastic. Even the sheep were extremely friendly..We loved every minute..

We thoroughly enjoyed our recent stay and we will certainly be back! This is a great little retreat if you want to detach from the world and reconnect with yourself. The owners were lovely and very easy to talk to. There's a little package with brochures for things to do. The pizza oven and hot tub is a MUST!!! The bed is very comfortable and you have everything you need provided! ...

An amazing weekend away, I never wanted to leave! The hot tub had been warmed up for our arrival and the log burners all stocked up ready to go with pizza dough ready in fridge! Also loved the fresh local milk and local cider waiting for us in the fridge! Can't recommend enough. I'll miss our neighbours (the sheep). The shower was also fab....

We absolutely loved our stay at The Whistle and would highly recommend. The hut and terrace were lovely, the setting was beautiful and so peaceful, and the facilities (pizza over, BBQ, hot tub) amazing. Our neighbours, Eric and Tabitha the pet sheep were lovely, like a pair of big woolly dogs and we enjoyed being able to feed them the occasional biscuit (with the owners permission). We had a wonderful long weekend and would love to come back....
