The Nook | 300-Year-Old Cottage near Cheddar

5⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

It was a great stay at Marie's! First of all she was very responsive to all our questions and provided all necessary information ahead of our stay. It was very easy to get into the house with clear instructions. The house was such a lovely character cottage which makes you feel at home right away! Parking was available for one car. We easily found another parking space for the other car in our group. Marie helped with that as well before we arrived. The place was spotless especially bed linen and towels provided, they felt like they were just washed and laid just before we arrived. The cottage is very well equiped with everything we needed. Plenty to see and do in close proximity too! Thank you Marie for hosting us!

5⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

The Nook offered us a great and comfy base to explore the local area. The village has 3 pubs and a community shop practically next door which was handy. You can walk out of the village into the countryside in minutes or we visited Wookey Hole, Wells cathedral, RSPB Ham Wall and the beautiful beaches on the nearby coast (all of which I'd reccomend)

Excellent communication from the host and the cottage has everything you need.

5⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

Lovely cottage holiday for me and my family at Christmas. Lots of space and kitchen was perfect to cook dinner and all the Christmas trimmings in. Very friendly village with the locals, lovely little shop round the corner and local pub at the end of the road. Perfect place for dog walks and a stroll. Close to cheddar and local shops. Couldn’t have wished for a better place to get away from the city and enjoy some peace and quiet. Would definitely recommend
