Short break in Somerset
We stayed at this bungalow and enjoyed our visit. However the cleanliness was a little hit and miss, had to wash the cutlery before use. Bed linen was excellent but found the seating uncomfortable and very dated. Tolerable for a short break but otherwise no. Shame as a lovely location close to lots of interesting places. Needs an update in a big way.
Lovely bungalow in a great location for the beach and getting about the area. Excellent communication from the host, who added a couple of extra things for us to help with our trip. We will definitely stay again. Thank you.
We really enjoyed our stay in Doniford. We have stayed at the property before and it’s a great base to go all over west Somerset. We had no problems at all and everything we needed was here. Also great for birds in the garden.
Dated property but it has everything you need. It’s in a good location to walk along the coastline. Great outdoor space. Beds are comfy. We enjoyed our stay and would book again!
Ideal for a short stay with my elderly mum. Beds were very comfy and slept well. Interior needs some up dating as it was a little tired and window blinds were very dirty. Having the extra seat cushion was ideal to make it easier for mum when sitting on the sofa, so thank you for that. Kitchen was well stocked with every thing we needed.
This is our 3rd visit here and will come again. Very quiet location with walking access to beaches, Very safe for our 2 dogs who loved the garden and very good value for money.
Basic property, very tidy & clean..has everything you need in it..garden not enclosed so had to keep close eye on dogs but otherwise very happy..

Short stay
We weren’t happy about the hygiene of the property. Furniture was a bit sticky, combination of carpet and allowing pets might be good to re-consider.
We were expecting more for the paid price and in regards to other properties in the neighbourhood.
Open door to be met with a stale, musty and 'uncared for' smell. Furniture outdated and uncomfortable - so low you need a hoist to get out of the chair or settee. Paintwork in need of a thorough 'going over'. Not acceptable for a holiday let. Thankfully Kate Beck to the rescue who 'rehomed' us in No.11 which, although in need of some t.l.c., was comfortable and enabled us to enjoy our break from thereon. Owner of No.15 needs to be advised as to the general condition both inside and out, as this was not up to the standard we have experienced with vrbo in the past.
It was very good for my mobility issues and for my cat, Cleo..
There's a farm shop nearby, with Williton and Watchet just a mile or so in either direction for doctors, fuel, takeaways, eating in and shops.
The bungalow is situated in a peaceful location amongst grass, trees and a river at the bottom of the garden, lovely for relaxing with livelier places nearby if needed.
It helped improved my health issues alot..I would highly recommend it!!!
Bed sprung mattress very old and very uncomfortable. Smell of old furniture in property immediately felt on entry.and stayed during visit.
Not a complete nights sleep as springs in old mattress denied uninterupted sleep
Although booked for three nights cut short our visit to family, we left after 2 nights. Just couldn't face another night..
Doggy friendly accommodation with a fantastic garden
A little bit dated but fantastic location five minutes from Doniford farm I would like the garden to be Enclosed and some outdoor lighting apart from that no complaints set purpose of having two dogs thank you so much
We stayed 3 nights while attending a nearby wedding. Clean ,comfortable, perfect for what we needed.lovely farm shop opposite, beautiful walks along the beach.
We had a lovely time, the property was very clean and ideal for what we wanted, we would recommend this to others and be happy to stay again.

About the host

I live in Hampshire with my husband and two children.
Why they chose this property
I bought this property as I used to come to Doniford Meadow on holiday myself as a child and loved it, especially hunting for fossils on the beach. I wanted to be able to bring my family to Doniford for holidays and give others the opportunity of discovering the delights of the area for themselves.
