I Vicki live near Heathrow. The peace and Tranquility of this stunning cottage and village is just amazing. Hearing nothing but Bird song is magical! The cottage is absolutely stunning. I love the way you have decorated it. The only thing I would add, is another lamp in the living room. I also love the touches of the Will and information on the house and village! What a wonderful place to live! I certainly hope to return sometime soon.

Beautiful original smugglers cottage beautifully furnished - loved the village and so close to other villages. Amanda and Craig are great hosts – they can’t do enough to help – the bed is to die for and the shower is the best we’ve had since arriving in the UK 4 weeks ago – go to the village of Beer for the best scampi and muscles – thank you both for your kindness.

“What an absolute gem! The trouble is it’s ruined all other holiday rentals for us in the future, as I can’t imagine finding anywhere else as perfect in every way. Nice to know that Craig and Amanda are on hand if you need them. So many thoughtful touches - the fabulous hamper, but also the beautiful flowers in every room and the dog biscuits were greatly appreciated. Even though we didn’t have the best weather, we always looked forward to returning to K.H. to cosy up in front of the fire. Hopefully we’ll be able to return sometime to explore the area some more. Highly recommend the Kings Arms for a tasty Sunday lunch and good mid week menu too. The Candlelight Inn and The Cotley Arms, both near Chard, are lovely for something a little more special and both very dog friendly”

Wow what a hidden gem. Hidden because when coming from London the sat nav took us down single track lanes with grass in the middle caressing the bottom of my car! And gem because this 500 year old cottage is so full of character and beautifully and tastefully modernised. the cottage is one of the oldest in the hamlet of Stockland and possibly predating the church. It was wonderful on Monday to hear the church bells and sit in the nave in the twilight watching the bell ringers perpetuating the tradition of bell ringing for some 500years.
