Paddons Cottage

Beautiful hideaway cottage deep in Somerset, three miles from the coast. Originally two small farm cottages and converted into a farmhouse in the early 1900's, this has been our home for the last 11 years, which we have shared with our two springer spaniels. Highlights include: * Bath and large walk-in shower * Wood burner * Beautiful garden next to stream * No neighbours (only property down a country lane) * Country walks on the doorstep * Warm in winter, cool in summer Recently refurbished throughout, the cottage offers Nest thermostat controlled heat in winter and is cool in summer due to the thick stone walls. There is only one room downstairs marked private which is inaccessible to guests. As much or as little as you want. We live down the lane so are on hand if there are any problems or requests. Stogursey is an ancient and beautiful Somerset village, tucked away off the A39. Local buildings of interest are the The Priory Church of St. Andrew with its Norman foundations dating back to the early 12th Century, the motte-and-bailey Stogursey Castle, the Gatehouse of which is let out by the Landmark Trust, and St Andrew’s Well, which is located in Back Street. There are many beautiful walks within the immediate area with the Quantock Hill just three miles up the road and the Bristol Channel Coast three miles in the other direction. A village bus is the only public transport. Private transport is recommended for getting to us. To allow the cottage to be affordable for smaller groups, we operate a base charge per night for up to 4 guests, and an additional £10 per guest per night for a fifth and sixth guest. If additional guests plan to only visit for a portion of your holiday, please make us aware of these plans and we can adjust the bill at the end of your stay. The local Church will chime on the quarter in daylight hours.
