The Granary

Unusual but comfortable and cosy accommodation in a quiet and tranquil setting.

The owners were friendly and very helpful. An excellent base for exploring the Somerset Levels. We had a lovely week and hope to visit again sometime.

Thoroughly enjoyed our stay, Bridget and Simon were perfect hosts, very welcoming and helpful.

A beautiful garden to relax in and the swimming pool was a godsend during the heatwave. Some lovely eating places within walking distance and a good local shop. So many great places to visit within a half hour drive, we particularly enjoyed Haynes Motor Museum and Clark’s Village, also lots of cafes and restaurants in Street. We hope to return next year.

Friendly helpful hosts, delightful location and setting, secluded and quiet.

Excellent!

We loved the wood-burning stove, a wonderful cosy place, thank you

Myself and my Husband stayed at the Granary to celebrate our 1st year Wedding Anniversary.

Briget, Simon and Tara (the Black Labrador) we're perfect hosts. The granary is so peaceful and absolutely perfect! We have already made arrangements to return next year!

Loved it.

We loved this cottage so much. I never got to do all the things I wanted to here, due to a very bad back, and left a day early, but have to say there is so much to see and do in this area. The bed is so comfortable, it really helped me get a good rest. The cottage is small, but cosy, and has everything you could want. The garden area is big and enclosed, and so well kept. The owners are just so friendly, and full of information. So sad about my condition on this holiday, and would love to stay here again, when all is well, so we can do the many things on offer in this area. Many thanks to Simon and Bridget, for the use of their beautiful cottage. Steve and Ann September 5th 2025

Lovely people, lovely place, we hope to be back soon.

The Granary is a lovely holiday destination.

It is well appointed, set in wonderfully maintained grounds, with a delightful small swimming pool. The owners are friendly and helpful & even put up with repeat questions, due to their guests inability to retain information, with good humour. The local facilities (village shop) are well stocked and within very easy walking distance, as are at least two pubs, all in all a great week away!

We received a very warm welcome from the owners .

Ten out of ten, idyllic setting , very comfortable and a well maintained property. Ideally located for sightseeing . A great place to unwind and relax..

Absolutely amazing property, well equipped.

From arriving to departing, the stay was perfect. Loved the log burner and the garden. Saw the pool but didn’t use it due to the time of year. Local pub with food is a 5 mins drive away Plenty to do and see in the area. Owners gave some really fantastic ideas on the first day so wasn’t in much during the day, didn’t get chance to see half of what I wanted to see. Lots of places to go walking. Will definitely be booking again

The accommodation is found within tranquil surroundings, in the owners ground.

Very well equipped and comfortable interior. Shop and eateries near by. A perfect place to get away to relax.

Lovely welcome from Bridget and and Simon.

Small bathroom and steep stairs but accommodation was very cosy. Lovely garden. Swimming pool but not able to use because of the time of year we chose to go. Enjoyable holiday

Had lovely holiday the property was clean,well maintained.

And was well equipped with everything you need. In lovely a place in easy reach of things to do round Somerset. Nice and quiet. Bridget and Simon were really friendly and helpful Had lovely holiday Lynn & Paul Whitehouse

If you are looking for a quiet, comfortable place in easy reach of the excellent nature reserves on the Somerset levels and surrounding areas, this could be what you are looking for!

It is a very quiet cottage in a picturesque setting. It is comfortable and appears to have everything you would consider needing for a stay. The car parking area is large and secure, shared with the adjacent house where the owners live. Since the photos were taken there is a new wood burning stove that looks more than adequate to warm the cottage on the coldest day. There are lots of brochures and guides available for places both near and far, to help you plan activities whilst you stay in the area. If you don't wish to make use of the cooking facilities, there are plenty of nice pubs/restaurants within a short drive and one with character that would be well worth visiting a short walk away (less than half-mile). Thoroughly recommended! I'd be more than happy to stay here again

Very nice holiday the own made use very welcome pool was great

Most friendly owners.

Location in the center of many places we have visit (NT) and beautyful surroundings. We absolute wil recommend this place

A very comfortable, fully equipped cottage that was an excellent base for enjoying the fauna and flora of the nearby Avalon Marshes.

A delight to return to at the end of a day's exploring.

A delightful cottage, within striking distance of everything we wanted, both birding and photography.

Lovely warm greeting by Simon, Bridget and Tara, always friendly and on hand to provide any required information.

Not intrusive happy to chat or give you as much privacy as you want. The property has everything you could need and a lovely garden view with an established garden and wonderful birds to watch. The bed was very comfortable and huge, with no noise disturbance which was led to fabulous rest. Homely touches included flowers and a fully equipped kitchen. They were very generous with the wood supply which kept us toasty and warm. We visited the local area including numerous national trust properties Dunster and Tyntesfield highly recommended . Cheddar Gorge where we the cliff top walk was very muddy but stunning views.Glastonbury (on the local bus - the bus stop is seconds walk away) and Weston-super-mare to name a few. There is a very well stocked local shop /post office which is open until 7 Mon- Sat closing at 4 on a Sunday. Recommended this beautiful haven in a lovely part of the country. Jen and Ian.

Very lovely cottage and super friendly owners would definitely stay again great holiday home.

We were warmly welcomed on arrival by the owners and their dog, we were shown the granary accommodation which fully lived up to the description in the brochure,the furnishings were comfortable and the beds were comfortable, the shower room was a bit of a squeeze but was OK for the duration.

Weather wise we were fortunate and were able to use the garden in the sunshine. Location wise a good place to explore Somerset with types of sightseeing/shopping to suit most people. On departure our hosts were available to bid us farewell and wish us safe journey. As and when we decide to visit this area again the Granary would be at the top of our list.

Our fifth visit to The Granary and again a very comfortable and relaxing stay.

The property now has the benefit of a log burning stove which makes it very cosy in the colder evenings. Excellent location near to many well known nature reserves on the Somerset Levels and only an hour away from Bath for a lovely day out browsing the architecture and independent shops. Can't wait until our next visit!!

Very nice place to stay in every respect.

The owners really are very friendly and helpful plus they have a beautiful young black Labrador! Everything as stated 'on the tin' is accurate!

Lovely quaint place to stay brilliant location for everywhere we wanted to visit.

Owners Bridget and Simon extremely accommodating and made us feel so welcome to their home and shared facilities.We loved the pool and were very blessed with great weather. The whole place and gardens very quiet and tranquil exactly what we wanted for our stay. We expected the Granary to be old and not modern and loved all the antiquities inside. Certainly the stairs were challenging but loved the massive open plan bedroom and looking up to the velux windows and seeing the stars. If you are mobile and want peace and quiet this really is the place to stay. Once again many thanks and hope to return in the future.

We had an excellent stay at The Granary the hosts were so helpful and friendly.

The Granary is set in a beautiful location and we had a very comfortable stay. Thank you for making our holiday a great one, we loved exploring Somerset!

I don’t know if you have someone who goes to these properties before you advertise them, as there’s some information that should be available the property is not for people who have any walking disability as it’s very uneven the steps down into the garden needs a hand rail badly , plus the washing machine you have to get on your hands and knees to use it and it’s outside in a small shed we couldn’t use the tumble dryer as we were told it wasn’t very good but they did offer to do it for us in theirs but we didn’t want them to, but our biggest concern was the kitchen sink omg the bacteria that must be around the top of it you really need to get someone to take a look at it soon as possible, but overall it’s a ideal place for a relaxing weekend

A lovely getaway, peace and tranquility of an evening, our hosts where very friendly and accommodating, offering advice on places to visit and eateries local to the cottage, which we found most helpful.

A lovely peaceful place to visit and a great place for relaxing or visiting the sites near by, would recommend this place to anyone

We were the first booking of the year and as it was built of stone and had an open mezzanine Flor so had to heat a lot of space so it needed either a log burner or more general heating capacity as we were cold on our first night!

We did mention this directly to the owners who were lovely people! The granary is in a peaceful location with access to good food at two local pubs We forgot to tell the owners that the hot water was far too hot and they could reduce their costs and improve safety. The night time stairs lightingwas a good safety feature! Overall an enjoyable stay

We loved the Granary.

Very comfortable, private and peaceful. Well placed to visit many places of interest in Somerset. We had a busy week with Wells, Cheddar Gorge, Dunster, to name just a few! Travelled a bit further at the end of the week and visited Stonehenge, then back through Frome. We ate locally at The Crown, which does a fabulous Sunday Carvery, The Duck at Burtle has good food and for something a bit different, Leather and Lace was worth a visit. Would love to come back in warmer weather to enjoy the pool and lovely garden!

This very comfortably furnished cottage provides a lovely space with hosts warmly welcoming helpful hosts.

The village location is idyllic as are the grounds the Granary is situated. This is definitely on my list of places to return to.

A beautiful and peaceful cottage with a lovely large garden and use of the shared swimming pool.

The cottage is well equipped and the owners friendly and helpful. It’s in a good location in a small village but good access to Bridgwater, Street, Glastonbury and the coast. A handy supermarket close by and a couple of pubs. The perfect place for a relaxing break.

A very enjoyable holiday made special via our hosts Bridget & Simon Michell.

We found The granary very clean,comfortable and quiet. We would highly recommend this holiday cottage. Grateful thanks

We really enjoyed our stay at the Granary, the Mitchel's were very accommodation, thank you.

The cottage was lovely and cool in the heat of 38 C when we were there due to it's thick stone walls and well equipped. The only negative would be the bathroom, it is very compact. Personally, as an Architectural Technician, I would have used the space where the third bed is as the shower room and the downstairs as a WC only, but that's just my personal opinion. I don't give it full marks for everything as it's an old granary and I don't expect it to be perfect and top notch, and that is it's charm, we really enjoyed it. The Cottage is well placed to visit the Somerset towns and villages as well as crossing into Dorset, Devon and the Coast which we what we did. We had a lovely holiday, thank you.

great place great people great break pool a real plus

Very quiet location whilst at the same time having access to a nearby village shop with a comprehensive range of products.

Plenty of places to eat within easy distance. The Granary had all we needed and was well equipped. Would certainly go again.

This is a lovely tranquil retreat, perfect for exploring the area.

The hosts are excellent, happy to chat if you want and there if needed but if you want peace and quiet and lovely gardens this if the place. The view out over the garden is wonderful. Can’t vouch for the television or microwave - didn’t need either, cooker is good, plenty of hot water and good shower.

Fabulous holiday in the Granary(Great house)in Edington.

In all the years that we’ve used sykescottages (15yrs)I can only think of one that was a let down and that was more the owner of the let rather than Sykes. Thanks again

The host was very accommodating and made us feel very welcome.

Wonderful weeks stay in this lovely converted granary in a beautiful village.

Such a great location for all attractions. The garden was so peaceful with the added benefit of the use of the pool. Will definitely re visit in the future.

Very friendly and helpful hosts.

They took great care to welcome us and even booked the pub for us for the evening meal. (Phone reception not great in parts of Somerset). A great location to see most of Somerset from. We really enjoyed it in spite of the terrible weather. The property was lovely and well equipped. In its own beautiful garden. The only slight downside was the size and location of the bathroom but it was sufficient. I would not recommend the property if you have any mobility issues because of the steep stairs to the bedroom. For anyone else it is a lovely unusual property, beautifully decorated and designed. Enough of a kitchen to make your own meals and eat at the table and a reasonable seating area with sofa and two armchairs to sit and chat and look out on the garden or alternatively watch the TV. A couple of good pubs in walking distance for meals, a great local store. Near to some wonderful walks - RSPB reserves and National Trust. From the visitor book there are a lot of repeat customers, and I can see why. Would definitely book again in the future - if available. Many thanks for such a good stay and such caring hosts.

Hosts and accommodation were fantastic, their advice regarding tourist areas was spot on .

The shop was very near which was handy. Two pubs a short distance away although no pavements so not that easy to walk to. Only small thing I’d like to see was an airdrop tv so you can use Netflix or Amazon off your phone but there are plenty of channels and dvds to watch so no big deal. Probably the best place I’ve ever stayed in England and for a great price .

A wonderful stay in the heart of the Somerset countryside.

Our hosts, Bridget and Simon were very warm and welcoming. The granary was very cosy, nicely furnished and very well equipped. A lot of thought had been given to ensure guests have a pleasant stay. We have rented many cottages in recent years and this was one of best we have stayed in. It's a bonus to have everything you need - and all in good working order! We thoroughly enjoyed our break in this beautiful and peaceful location. The area is perfect for cycling and the Avalon Marshes are well worth a visit. There are several interesting towns to visit and it was only a short distance to the coast if you felt like some sea air. A perfect break in every way. It's certainly somewhere we would like to come again. Thank you Bridget and Simon (give a hug from us to your lovely labrador - sorry I can't remember her name!).

The Granary was everything we hoped it would be and provided us with a very comfortable base in a beautiful location to explore Somerset and Dorset.

Our hosts, who live in their adjacent property, were very welcoming and available to give us much appreciated tips and advice on local places to visit. All in all a lovely week away.

We had a wonderful holiday thank you, you really could not ask for more for the price we paid.

It was supposed to be a second holiday so we booked it as a budget break. We were very pleased to find the grounds and the property so beautiful - certainly not a ‘budget’ property. The owners were warm, helpful and present, without being intrusive. Our child had the best time, she enjoyed the grounds and playing with the owner’s grandchildren. As a parent I felt it was completely safe and secure with large locked gates so was able to relax when she played outside. As a side note - I would have rather have known the arrangements for the pool (around the pool area for the owner’s exclusive use when they want it) when I booked, so I could make a more informed decision. We think this place is a delightful place to stay and would recommend it.

Amazing break away, will definitely stay again when we are in the area again.

We had a lovely, relaxing holiday.

The cottage was a great find, had all we needed and the swimming pool a refreshing extra! Hosts were very helpful in giving advice. Thankyou.

Very peaceful and relaxing stay at the Granary.

The stairs to the bedroom mezzanine are quite steep and the shower room is very compact. Otherwise you have everything you need and more. You have full access to the large rear garden and swimming pool beyond. Simon & Bridget make you very welcome while you’re there and always available with advice for things to see and do

The cottage was beautiful and well equipped.

The owners Simon and Bridget were very helpful and we had a really lovely holiday

Beautiful cottage in a peaceful setting and grounds the local pub served great food and although only approximately 10 miles from Burnham-on-Sea the drive was 20-30 mins.

Wouldn’t hesitate to visit again a superb autumn break.

Beautiful cottage in the grounds of an amazing house.

We had a fantastic time and the owners Were lovely making us feel right at home.

Bridget and Simon could not have been more helpful and they made our stay very pleasant.

The location of the cottage put us in touch with so many points of interest. We would highly recommend the Granary and if ever we are in the area again we would stay in the Granary. Judy & Dan Frantz

It is Wonderful to know that one van rely on a company like yours.

Great to know that the house is good! Especially if you come from a different country!

Lovely location very peaceful and homely.

The owners were very helpful and accommodating great hosts offering ideas to visit, within half an hour you could be at the seaside or visiting lovely towns and villages. The pool was a lifesaver in this heat and was most welcome after returning from my days out. The 6’ bed was extremely comfortable. It’s everything you can imagine an old stone cottage would be and I will be visiting again.

The owners were very welcoming and friendly, they even let me use their swimming pool to cool off after a day cycling in glorious, sunny weather.

I really enjoyed my stay at The Granary. The surrounding area is beautiful.

We enjoyed our stay.

The owners were very friendly & approachable. The cottage had everything you could possibly need, even down to shower gel& toilet rolls (although we had taken our own it was a lovely idea in case people had forgotten). The garden was beautiful & our son enjoyed playing in it.

There is an excellent local shop within a two minute walk.

Stairs are steep as mentioned but clearly marked and a night light is provided. There are 3 pubs within a mile. Grounds and pool are lovely and peaceful. Owner is very helpful and approachable.
