The cottage was cosy and clean with very comfy beds, even though they were at almost full capacity, it was still very peaceful. Great place to switch off and relax. Definitely thinking of booking to go back.
Holly
Fantastic, well kept countryside retreat. The cottage was just the perfect mix of quirky and functional. The hot tub was an excellent addition to an already well equipped cottage. The surroundings were beautiful and the area itself was so peaceful. An excellent base to explore local beauty spots like Cheddar and Bath. Our only issue was raised and sorted within 5 minutes, excellent hosts! We had a fantastic week and would highly recommend this lovely property. Thank you.
Carol
Fox Whelp is a delightful holiday cottage. One of the cleanest places weve ever stayed in. The kitchen is well equipped, with plenty of crockery and glasses provided. We made full use of the log burner and the hot tub. A very peaceful area - only 20mins walk to the local golf club. They do a good Sunday roast and also have a childrens menu. Great c entral spot with easy driving to the coast, Wells and Cheddar. This was our second visit to Fox Whelp and we plan to return again next year.

Brian
This was a wonderful location. So peaceful. We loved it and so did our dog. The cottage was gorgeous and we loved the garden. It was private , beautiful and ideal to sit out every day and enjoy our meals alfresco. Lots of outdoor seating and an undercover area too. The complex of houses are beautiful. A lot of thought gone into the lay out and appe arance. We took advantage of the mini shop for fresh eggs and bottles of cider. Dog walks great. Orchard so pretty. Would love to stay 2 weeks.
Samantha
Beautiful cottage in a quiet, rural location but not far from amenities. Very friendly hosts, will definitely be returning!
Rob
Clean and well equipped cottage with great host! Location is nice and quiet but nut not very far from a couple of great pubs and a village store. Highly recommended!!
Stewart
We had a lovely stay. The location was great - just a couple of minutes drive from the pretty village of Wedmore and with easy access to the beaches at Burnham, Brean and Berrow and inland to Wells and Glastonbury. Foxwhelp cottage was clean and spacious and the gardens lovely. So peaceful and quiet. The owner was friendly and helpful.
Kate
First off, the photographs of the cottage do not do it justice. It is really lovely. So is the garden, the orchard and the surrounding area. It you want a really peaceful, quiet holiday with beautiful surroundings this is the place for you. The hot tub is an added bonus. Lots to do in the surrounding area (you will definitely need a car) and take t owels (they are not provided).
Sarah
What a great week away! The cottage was really well maintained and decorated. Everything youd need for a little break. The welcome package of a bottle of cider and some fresh made bread was lovely. The hot tub was the perfect addition to the beautifully decorated cottage. Perfect for our small family of four. We will definitely look to return and p erhaps get family to rent out the other cottages on site for a big family holiday!
Tony
Lovely cottages in a quiet and safe location
Shelley
Piece of Heaven. This little treasure nestled away in the centre of Somerset is just what we needed. Kid and dog friendly we had the best time. The orchard is really something special. Easy access to many lovely sights or just make the most of the beautiful surroundings of the peppery.

Fox Whelps is a lovely, comfortable cottage within in a very peaceful, welcoming setting. Everything was beautiful around us and the hot tub a surprise bonus.

Despite the rather mixed weather we had a brilliant week staying here. Cheddar Gorge walk was tough but rewarding and we rewarded ourselves with an excellent meal at the dog friendly White Hart Inn, Cheddar. Wells was also a delightful outing. Shannon and James were great hosts and the cottage was welcoming and relaxing, the hot tub being an added bonus.

The cottage is in a great location, only a short drive to some wonderful places to visit like Cheddar and Weston Super Mare. The cottage itself is very comfortable and spotlessly clean.
