"Lovely place to stay very easy to walk to Cheddars Gorge from the hotel. Room was clean and bed comfortable, loved the small jars of nuts, Sweets in the room. Would recommend you tell them when booking if you have a nut allergy and not have the nuts in your room. The staff were absolutely amazing, nothing was too much trouble for them. Breakfast was delicious and a good choice, we also ate our evening meals in the hotel and it was delicious, also liked that they did a couple of dinners as smaller portions. Wi-Fi worked very well."

"Property was lovely for the weekend break with my family. Plenty of room and layout was good in the main lounge area and in the patio. The only thing I. would say is that it was very warm and would have been nice to have aircon . The ceiling fan was good when sitting underneath it but other areas remained very warm"

"Our owners had a few problems with the lodge which were eventually were resolved except for the dishwasher which they said just need salt and blue rinse but coming up with same error E4. TV hdmi input had been pushed in by previous users so unable to plug in fire stick, said they had no other TV's to replace it with.There were two free dogs toys in the lodge for us to play with.And were supplied with towels for the humans.The park and club house is dog friendly apart from two dining areas with plenty of dog walks. We had a lovely walks in the woods and to cheddar reservoir and axbridge (nice dog friendly pubs), you can also walk to cheddar gorge via the strawberry line.The humans went for a nice swim in the pool. And took us to Brean to the dog friendly beach. We enjoyed Cheddar gorge caves as they are dog friendly but wookey hole caves are not. Would woofld stay here again.
