Maple Lodge, Mendips Cheddar Wells Bath Longleat
A great place to stay, very pretty and secluded. It was a perfect place for us to stay and visit the local spots such as cheddar and Wookey hole. Sarah was very responsive and gave some great tips on where to visit. The place itself was lovely and full of all the amenities, would recommend to anyone looking for a break with their family. The welcome pack was also lovely and most appreciated. Thanks for a lovely stay Sarah, will definitely look to stay again.

Secluded 2 bedroom bungalow in beautiful Somerset
Absolutely loved our stay at their quaint yet stunning place. The views were breathtaking and the host went above and beyond to welcome us. Highly recommended!!

Ganders Cottage at Highway Farm, Bridport
We had a lovely stay in Ganders Cottage, with two young children. The cottage was spotlessly clean, pleasant to stay in and we put the patio to good use by having breakfast there every day. We even spotted a pheasant from the garden. The kids enjoyed the cottage and it was very family friendly. We only regret not taking the time to explore the farm and walk the area. The cottage was ideally situated to explore the Jurassic Coast, and we had many lovely outings to the nearby beaches. Charlotte and Robin were great hosts, attentive yet unintrusive, kind and thoughtful. They gave us good tips before and during the stay.

Beautiful views over the fields!
Lovely place to stay, took my family for a peaceful new year's break. Lovely view's across the fields. Would definitely recommend

Great Coombe - panoramic views & lake
We stayed as a family group of 6 adults and 3 kids over Easter. The location and view were beautiful as was the local area. We saw a woodpecker visiting the bird feeder several times which was a nice treat! Our trip was geared towards children’s activities and we had lots of choice of things to do in the local area within a 30-45 minute drive. The games room was a great bonus and provided hours of enjoyment for kids and adults alike. The house was very clean, tastefully decorated and well presented with a very well equipped kitchen. The downstairs living area was spacious and had ample seating so there was always somewhere to flop at the end of the day. Nicola was pro active and helpful and responded very quickly to any questions we had. Overall we had a lovely time at Great Coombe :-)

The Byre lovely traditional stone barn
A very well appointed and comfortable property with pretty much everything you would need. Excellent kitchen, bathroom, laundry facilities, sitting / dining and very spacious bedroom. We would gladly stay again and would not hesitate to recommend it to any couple, or a couple with a child.

Glebe House, a beautiful country home
Staying in Victoria's home was amazing. It is a beautiful home, perfect for a group setting and we all thoroughly enjoyed our stay. Every room matched the pictures and descriptions, and the surrounding area was lovely too. Veronica was extremely responsive and answered all of our queries in a timely manner. I would definitely visit again!

Stourhead Charming Cottage in idyllic location
What a fantastic house in an amazingly beautiful location. We met up as a family for the weekend and don’t think we could have found a better place to stay 👍 The house is well equipped and well laid out with great rooms throughout. The comms from Sally were timely, accurate and very helpful. The access to Stourhead and grounds were a bonus we weren’t expecting, so we had a fabulous day waking the gardens and house, with the Spreadeagle Inn ideally located for food and pit stops. I’m sure we’ll return when we can find the next excuse to meet up again 👍

Your guide to Cheddar
All About Cheddar
Cheddar, a picturesque Somerset village in the Mendip Hills, is known for its namesake cheese, made here in the traditional way since the 12th century. You can pick up a wedge for yourself that’s still matured in the caves under the city. Cheddar also boasts the highest inland cliffs in the UK, making for some of the best rock climbing in the country, while hiking and nature walks offer a picturesque perspective of the Mendips, an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty. Take the popular Cheddar Gorge Walk or any of the hiking paths through the area, including the Draycott Sleights route, which offers sweeping vistas across the Somerset Levels.
The 9,000-year-old skeleton of Cheddar Man, Britain’s oldest known human, was discovered in Cheddar Gorge in 1903. Although it’s unlikely you’ll discover prehistoric fossils during your hike, you may encounter goats or Soay sheep grazing in the hills, or spot peregrine falcons overhead — they nest in the valley’s towering cliffs.
The village’s colourful cottages and Cheddar Yeo, the scenic river that runs through the town, also make Cheddar a charming place to visit.
The best time to stay in a holiday rental in Cheddar
The best time to rent log cabins in Cheddar, Somerset is summer through autumn. June, July, and August have the warmest weather. From September to November, the weather is cooler but comfortable, and the season is full of harvest festivals. In September, the SheppyFest cider and music festival happens on a farm near Taunton. The Wells Food Festival in October celebrates Somerset’s food producers with street food, drinks, and crafts. Bonfire Night in November ends the harvest season with fireworks, ushering in the winter holidays. The Christmas Artisan Market in November in Weston-super-Mare has stalls selling artisanal gifts and food. The coldest months in Cheddar are December through April.
Top things to do in Cheddar
Ebbor Gorge
Around 15 minutes from Cheddar, the Ebbor Gorge National Nature Reserve is a mix of ash woodland, limestone formations, and ancient cave systems. Rare lichen and moss thrive here, along with fairy flax and wild thyme. You can spot bats and white-letter hairstreak butterflies here, and perhaps make the steep climb to the top of the gorge for spectacular views of the surrounding Mendip Hills.
Bath
Bath, the largest city in the county of Somerset, is about an hour’s drive from Cheddar. It is the only UK city designated as a UNESCO World Heritage site, thanks to its extensively preserved Georgian architecture and Roman archaeology. Bath has been famous for 2,000 years for its Roman baths, which you can tour today. The city also inspired great writers, and literature lovers should not miss the Jane Austen Centre.
The Strawberry Line
Cheddar is known for its strawberries as well as its cheese. The Strawberry Line heritage trail is a 10-mile walking route along the former railway line trackbed from Cheddar to Yatton. The path is flat and accessible for wheelchairs, strollers, and bicycles. Most of the route is a Local Nature Reserve, providing encounters with diverse plants and wildlife.
