“First time staying at Hope Farm, we stayed in Owls Retreat cottage.”

It has been updated to a great standard, and very clean and tidy. ...

It has been updated to a great standard, and very clean and tidy. We recieved a very warm welcome from the owners and their daughter on Arrival. On entering the cottage a lovely homemade hamper with Local produce welcomed us, which was a lovely surprise. The cottage was well equipped and very clean with lovely bedding and towels and little spa samples. There is a games room in the barn so great for the kids to go and use to give you a break..It's such a peaceful area and was lovely to come back to after a busy day to relax. Throughout the stay Jane was very lovely and even took our daughter to feed the horses which she loved. Would definitely go back and also recommend to others, very close to brean and weston super mare, and some lovely restaurants which are all mentioned in the welcome book. Thank you Jane, David and mia

“We had a lovely few days at Owls Retreat.”

We chose this accommodation as we took the mother in law who is a wheelchair user and the cottage is on one level. As soon as we arrived the owner saw the wheelchair and brought a ramp over to aid access, a nice touch. We also have a dog and the large secure paddock behind the cottage was very handy to let her have a sniff around and do her business. Don't forget to pick up the poo! The farm Collie dog Oreo is so friendly, when our dog decided to have a bark and a growl at her she just turned and walked away. Such a chilled dog. All in all we had a very relaxing stay and have recommended the accommodation to friends and family.

“This property states it is dog friendly but considering it’s location is on a country lane I would have hoped for somewhere that your dog can go to the toilet.”

We couldn’t have our dog in the open garden as it wasn’t secure at all and the owners dog clearly didn’t like mine.

“We booked a last minute break and wasn’t disappointed.”

The cottage was well equipped and cosy. The owners were so friendly and welcoming, even showing our little boy the pony. It’s the perfect base for getting to Weston and burnham. We will definitely be booking again.

“The phone number for the owner given on line is incorrect.”

The correct one is in the information folder in the cottage. The hot water heater was not turned on when I arrived. The hot water tap in the kitchen takes a very long time to run hot so water is wasted. Some egg cups would be useful! This is a pretty, well equipped cottage in attractive surroundings.

- Lorna, June 2022

Hi many thanks for your feedback. There are egg cups I ran over to check when I read this but they don’t look like traditional ones so not easy to spot! The water heaters are being replaced work starts tomorrow and we had to wait for a window when the cottages were free to replace. I agree they are a nightmare we inherited them from the previous owners and have been desperate to take out! Sorry for the inconvenience hopefully if you return you will see the improvement of hot water Property Owner
