Indicknowle Farm

Reviewed By JackP196 - Chichester, United Kingdom

There was no one part better than another, it was better than all the rest for us, Sue and Mark are the ideal hosts and as usual, on arrival, Sue lays the table with her home made bread, home made scones, home made jam and cream and it just gets better. Both Sue and Mark are always there to help, even though Indicknowle is a full time hard working farm. The meat is excellent and the cider is a passion with them. The cottage itself is spotless and very well looked after with two onsuite bedrooms. If you want a holiday where you dont have to go anywhere if you dont want to, this is it. Having said that, you are close to lots of coastal ports to visit and eat out, there are boat trips for fishing or sightseeing. Something for everyone, even a rail trip for those steam enthusiasts. If that is not enough, Marks dad Jeff is a mine of information and son Christopher showed me how to catch trout. We cannot wait to go back again to this lovely place and lovely very friendly people Thank you Sue Mark and Christopher and dad, Jeff

Dunster Castle

Reviewed By soundmary

We had a fantastic day out at Dunster Castle, the volunteers and staff were lovely to chat to, the gentleman who did our attic tour was really knowledgable and interesting, that tour is well worth doing. We wished we had been able to come when the mill was in operation but the volunteers there were very good at making it come alive and explaining how it all worked. The gardens are also very beautiful and you could spend a long time just wandering. We also had a meal in the cafe by the mill and a cup of tea by the castle, all very good.
