The Forge

This was a really lovely property and the owner very welcoming.

It was very convenient for National Trust properties and local walks. It needed just a few extra touches. A small freezer would have been useful; a hand towel in the kitchen plus kitchen scissors and a bread knife; a bedside cabinet to accommodate underwear and valuables and a couple of bath sheets as 2 bath towels and 1 hand towel were insufficient for 2 guests for a 5 day stay. Having said this we would definitely stay there again and recommend it.

Lovely country cottage for two that is oozing character.

Friendly owner. Well equipped cottage with comfortable bed, good kitchen and lovely bathroom. Plenty of hot water on tap. Underfloor heating. Plenty of footpaths in the area if you like walking. General store about 2 miles away.

We had a very warm welcome from the owner of the property .

The Forge has been beautifully renovated to a high standard . The facilities were great although a small freezer would have been useful particularly as we took frozen food with us and a chest of drawers would have been an asset. Only a couple of small observations about an otherwise wonderful property .

The Forge has been thoughtfully designed and decorated, it is well equipped and was spotlessly clean.

It has a secluded garden and off-road parking. The location is peaceful and has easy access to main routes. The owner was extremely welcoming and helpful.

We had a lovely week at The Forge exploring the local area.

A great deal of care has obviously gone into equipping the cottage and Sharon was brilliant at sorting out any minor requests or queries.

Excellent property for 2 people.

Table and chairs rather small but manageable.

Had a really lovely stay ,the cottage has been designed to a high standard and is well equipped for all your needs.

The bed is comfortable ,the shower is good with plenty of hot water. The Forge is in the countryside but very near to get to Taunton for shops and a great museum. It is less than an hour to get to the sea on the south coast.We thoroughly enjoyed our stay.

The forge is a great place for touring.

Warm/cosy everything you would need or want in your stay. Sharon is a welcoming host and talks through how things work. You need too try this place out. One tip if going in to Taunton turn left at end of the road follow it to A358 much better access. Will be back.

We had a lovely short stay at The Forge.

The owner Sharon was very pleasant and extremely welcoming. The Forge is very well laid out with everything you could need, it was clean and tidy and has been recently converted to a very high standard. There was a guide to local attractions, clear instructions for tv etc, even some books and games for bad weather. It has a lovely self contained garden which were able to make the use of during our stay, it is located in a lovely quiet village but isn’t too far from amenities.

The Forge is a delightful property.

Renovated with style and everything provided, with its own private garden. The owner was very helpful, above and beyond necessity in my case. I was greeted by a robin flying indoors to be fed, it appreciates dried wild birdworms.

This, presumably, former forge has been renovated to an extremely high standard incorporating some of the original beam structures.

The decor is light and airy with a stable door for warm days and an enclosed garden area ideal for catching the late afternoon sun. The equipment is more than adequate for self catering needs and there is full explanations of any appliances with which you are unfamiliar. The lighting is extremely good, no problem with reading in bed! Altogether a lovely place to stay.

Wonderful stay.

The host was lovely. The place was immaculate. Highly recommend, and would absolutely stay again.
