    “We were not supposed to be going to Suffolk, we had originally booked to go to a different property.”

    However, when this property was cancelled on our way there we had a look on Sykes cottages and Suffolk was the top of the list. Am I glad that it was!! On arrival driving in to the property you’re greeted by gorgeous scenery and a relaxing environment. You feel welcomed straight away.

    However, when this property was cancelled on our way there we had a look on Sykes cottages and Suffolk was the top of the list. Am I glad that it was!! On arrival driving in to the property you’re greeted by gorgeous scenery and a relaxing environment. You feel welcomed straight away. On the outside of the property is the fantastic hot tub, a fire pit and seating. There is a good size area of grass to the front, overlooking a lovely paddock filled with chicken and wild rabbits. Such a peaceful view to look out on. Inside the property you’ll find everything you need for your stay. The bed is very comfortable and the kitchenette is perfectly adequate with a kettle, toaster, microwave and two hob stove. You also have a full sized fridge. The bathroom is all you need and very clean and tidy. The hot tub was the star of our visit, with you able to go in it whenever you want. I was in by 7 most mornings and to be able to sit and relax looking at the stunning surrounding views was idyllic. There are a couple of very good pubs quite close, as well as a lovely tea room serving afternoon tea in Axbridge. The Strawberry Line walk follows the back of the property and you can use a path from the cottage to walk straight to it. Perfect for long walks. Please visit this wonderful place and you won’t be disappointed.

Axbridge Pods

These two timber pods enjoy a serene location amidst the rolling hills of Somerset, with the Quantocks and Mendip walking trails on the doorstep, just outside the town of Axbridge. Presented to a lovely standard with a private seating area and hot tub, these quaint little homes are perfect for couples eager to escape normality to see what this countryside location has to offer. The pods are accessed via a long drive and are welcoming to pets and horses, however they must be kept on leads at all times. Internally, the pods are presented in an open plan studio style with a kitchenette and a romantic dining area, so you can enjoy home-cooked meals when you’re not dining at a local restaurant. Wash away the day in the en-suite shower before climbing into bed and catching up on a favourite show from the wall-mounted TV. The exterior of these pods is a real highlight; gather round the firepit and enjoy marshmallows on a brisk evening while you wait for the hot tub to warm up, providing the ultimate way to recover after a long day of eploring. Avid walkers will be in awe of the surrounding area, exploring the magnificent Quantock Hills Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty as well as the Mendip Hills, each providing a special landscape of panoramic views, wilderness and tranquillity. Wander into the Somerset village of Cheddar where you will find a good selection of pubs, restaurants and shops, including many specialist cheese shops selling the renowned Cheddar Cheese, before venturing further afield to the city of Wells, home to the impressive 12th century Wells Cathedral, the historic Vicar’s Chapel and Library, as well as the Wells & Mendip Museum where you can learn more about the local area. However you choose to spend your precious holiday time, return to these inviting pods for an evening of relaxing and rejuvenation.
