“It's a gorgeous cottage with plenty of space for everyone and a large garden so that the children could play happily.”

The games room was a great success, too. The house was spotless and we were very comfortable there. It was great to have two sitting rooms which meant that the kids could go in another room sometimes. Fun to have the piano, too!

Sampford Brett is a very peaceful village with lots of lovely country walks around. It's also near the seaside and many interesting places to visit. Maggie made us so welcome and was extremely helpful. It really was a very special holiday - thank you!

“Lovely old cottage with a warm family friendly feel to it.”

Our two family's enjoyed spending a week here just chilling together. Our dog absolutely loved the space in the house and the garden and was in her element. The owner, Maggie Fountain is such a lovely lady and made us all very welcome.

“Lovely big old house”

We stayed here this weekend as a large family group getting together to celebrate a recent wedding held abroad. Lovely house, few wobbly doors and dodgy bits of plaster etc but it is over 300yrs old and just adds to the feel.. Sleeps 13, plenty of room for everyone, two huge lounges both with TV, huge kitchen with a rayburn and literally every appliance and utensil you could need. All the bedrooms were large and nicely decorated and furnished with lovely comfy beds. Plenty of parking, paddock at the rear with goats and a calf, which the kids adored visiting and feeding! Bit isolated, nothing in walking distance really, but means nobody to disturb or be disturbed by you, gets pitch black at night, no street lights, the night sky was amazing. The owner lives at the rear and was a lovely lady, very friendly and helpful. Only five mins drive to Williton where there are shops n pubs, etc. Ten mins to Watchet, twenty mins to Minehead where there are big supermarkets etc. We all had a great weekend here and fully intend to come back here and all do it again in the future.
