A truly relaxing weekend in a beautiful part of Somerset. The company was fine, the breakfasts unbeatable, gluten free a standard option, as much as we wanted and when we wanted. Even though I am somewhat allergic to cats they were not a great problem. Bob and Jane were very good hosts with local knowledge and very comfortable surroundings. A... More

Thought I would update you on the local pub! The Royal Oak in the adjacent village of Barrington is the nearest and about 10-15 min walk. There have been problems over recent years and we have heard rumours that the brewery is now thinking of selling the pub rather than just getting in new management. So a great opportunity for...

They say good things come to those who wait and having toured all over the uk for years we were yet to find a bnb that ticked all the boxes..until now. A thatched cottage of loveliness housing two of the finest folk you'll ever come across, Bob and June have an absolute treasure on their hands here. Immediately welcomed into... More

A beautiful house with fantastic views. The owners were very welcoming with tea and cake on arrival. Our room was very comfortable, spotless and with equiped with all we needed. The breakfast was delicious and Bob & Jane really spoilt us! Both were very helpful with information of the local area. Couldn't have asked for a more relaxing stay. More

After a tiring three-hour drive, we were welcomed into this beautiful house by the owners and their delightful cats. Our room was even better than anticipated, with a large brass bed nestled amongst the beams of this beautiful room. The ensuite bathroom was immaculate and well equipped and the extras included many flavoured teas and coffee and fresh milk supplied... More

We were pleased at at each 'new' find as we arrived. Friendly efficient welcome. Nice tea in garden, luggage carried up for us without asking (I am 80+). Room splendid and clean, well and tastefully equipped. A good meal with hosts and other guests. I can say we are full of praise and highly recommend More

We first visited Farndon Thatch for the Somerset Arts Weeks in September 2010. We could not fault the luxury accommodation and delicious food and drink, and Bob and Jane were very friendly and hospitable. We returned again this September, and again had a wonderful stay. We shall certainly be back again ! I would always recommend this Bed and Breakfast... More

A really great place to stay - lovely room, beautiful garden and views. Bob and Jane really made us feel welcome, not only when we arrived but whenever we'd been out for the day. Nothing was too much bother and by the end of our three day stay, like a previous reviewer, we felt we'd known them for ages. We'd... More

We could only stay one night as Jane and Bob were fully booked, but it was a marvellous experience to enjoy the luxury of bed and bathroom and the fresh fruit and yoghurt followed by beautifully cooked breakfast. We had not seen our hosts for over twenty years when we were friends in London, so it was a delight to... More
