This is a fantastic little property. Perfect for two (and not small in that respect either). Well appointed, great views, lovely plot, private without being horribly isolated. Easy transport links to the area. Lovely hosts. I think we would both say this is about the best UK cottage we have ever stayed at.
Liam
We had a lovely stay. I took my fiance and our dog (long haired chihuahua, Penelope) and it was perfect. Its lovely and quiet, and apart from greeting us, the owners left us to it (but were available on WhatsApp at any time). We visited the Maypole Inn a few times (dog friendly), popped into Bridgwater for dinner one evening, and went to Clarks Out let Village (dog friendly - we didnt know this until we got there!). There is a huge Sainsburys less than 15 minutes away #helpful

This accommodation and location is perfect if you are holidaying with your dog. We have stayed in dog friendly accommodation before and always found it really stressful as it is very rarely actually dog friendly. Shepherds Croft is perfect; the floors are wipeable but non slip, the garden is really well enclosed, easy to control the temperature wit h a thermostat in every room. Owners are helpful but not intrusive. Overall a lovely, relaxing holiday in a beautiful location.
