A really lovely cosy cottage perfectly located to explore Glastonbury and Wells with beaches and Bath also nearby. Extremely well equipped and the most lovely welcome package including bread and scones with jam and marmalade all homemade. The owners were on site and always happy to help with anything but not intrusive at all. We loved our stay and would definitely recommend to others and come back ourselves....

An excellent cottage in a great location for walking and birdwatching on the Avalon Marshes. The Smithy was very clean and well equipped. The homemade goodies that were left for us were delicious and very generous. The owners were always on hand if required. We would definitely come back. ...

Fabulous property in an ideal location to explore the levels. The property had everything we needed to enjoy our stay, in particular the welcome goodies. We loved it so much we plan to return in the spring.
