It was really hot when we were staying at the cabin, but trees shade the cabin and the outside decking from mid afternoon onwards which allowed the cabin to cool down before nightime and so eating and sitting outside right up till after dark was lovely. There's a bit of road noise from the nearby A39 but we soon found we were able to shut this out.Read more The owners garden is beautiful and at your disposal so if you prefer to sit in full sun you can.

A well equipped Scandinavian style wooden lodge in a scenic part of Somerset enabling a relaxed countryside break.

This is a wonderful, comfortable and relaxing retreat, a very relaxing few days helped by the resident ponies and rabbits. A fabulous woodland opposite to exercise our dog. Sitings of deer were common. The lodge is on the doorstep of so many places to visit such as Watchet, St Audrie's bay and waterfall and much more.
