Accommodation Details

Two bedrooms: 1 x double, 1 x twin. Bathroom with bath, shower over, basin and WC. Kitchen. Dining room with gas flame-effect fire. Sitting room with open fire..

A charming, semi-detached cottage, dating back to 1880, tucked away down a little single-track lane within the South Somerset village of Tatworth. The village is also known as South Chard and is just three miles from the town of Chard itself, near the borders of both Dorset and Devon. This lovely period cottage has been renovated to an extremely good standard, offering a delightfully comfortable home-from-home in Somerset. It has two bedrooms with windows overlooking the adjacent little lane, a bathroom where you can enjoy a soak after a long day outside, and a well-equipped, narrow galley kitchen, access from the dining room down two steps. The dining room has a warming, woodburner-style gas fire and a TV, meaning it can double up as a social space once dinner is over. The cosy sitting room has stairs to the first floor and features a warming open fire providing a further place for your group to socialise. Outside, there's a small private sitting area at the front and a private courtyard at the rear of the cottage, beside the little lane. When the sun is shining, you can sit out here with a book, or enjoy refreshments whilst you discuss your day’s activities. Close by are lovely rural walks to explore, whilst a short drive takes you into the nearby town of Chard, which offers an interesting selection of shops, pubs and restaurants. There are several historic houses and beautiful gardens to visit within an easy drive, including Barrington Court, Forde Abbey and Montecute House. Alternatively take the route south to the market town of Axminster, or take your buckets and spades and enjoy a fresh fish supper at the charming seaside resort of Lyme Regis. A superb holiday cottage in a wonderful village location, offering a comfortable and convenient base for enjoying South Somerset, East Devon and West Dorset. Note: This property is adjacent to Ref. 14229, together they sleep 9.

Lovely quirky little cottage down a tiny country lane. Make sure to follow the owner's directions into the lane it would be impossible to drive into the driveway if you go the wrong way! Lots to see nearby, Chard reservoir lovely for walks and not far to the coast. A very pleasant week!

We booked last minute, for the middle of July. We stayed for two hours. I have never entered and viewed such a dirty property, booked through the holiday cottage company that rhymes with dykes. The hosts were telephoned to remedy the issue in all rooms, but we were unconvinced that they could clean, since they let it out in such a state. We found a hotel for the night and went onto an airbnb place next day. We were not reimbursed or had a response to our complaint.

The cottage was very beautifully and thoughtfully decorated. Everything we needed was within the kitchen. The location was perfect. The bedrooms were very well presented with lots of lovely details, we can't wait to book again for next year, we had a fantastic time!

The cottage was very beautifully and thoughtfully decorated. Everything we needed was within the kitchen, WiFi was faster than at home and very reliable, the location was perfect. The bedrooms were very well presented with lots of lovely details, we can't wait to book again for next year, we had a fantastic time! It would be perfect for families or couples looking to escape, the owners clearly have put a lot of thought into making this a holiday cottage you'd want to return to year after year!
