We had another lovely stay over Christmas, this cottage as usual, provides a very comfortable, homely base and met all our needs. Helen always quickly responds to messages and fixed a light bulb within minutes. The cottage is well located within walking distance from the centre. I highly recommend it!

Cosy stay
Located in a lovely village. We went for a lovely meal in a pub called the walnut tree which is a nice 15 minute walk. The coach house is cosy and comfortable.A well equipped kitchen with the added perk of a coffee machine and frother. Host Helen was very responsive to messages and gave us some helpful information about the local area. We would definitely stay again.

Always a treat to be here
Always a treat to be here. Helen has become a friend, we have been here so often. She is incredibly sweet and accommodating. My son has been unwell this time and she was so thoughtful. This is a lovely spot with so many walks right from the door, and places to shop and eat. Close to so many beautiful outings, too. Mere is a very special little town set in spectacular rural scenery. Stourhead, one of the national trust’s flagship properties is literally five minutes away. The cottage is very quiet and comfortable, cozy and cheerful. Very nice bath and all you need. I would definitely recommend it. Wonderful host. Oh, and I so appreciate the lovely bottle of red wine. Thank you Helen!

Stay in the Coach House, Mere
We enjoyed our stay at the Coach House. Helen was very welcoming when we arrived and enthusiastic about our stay and where we wanted to visit. She gave plenty of time to tell us about Stourhead where we mentioned we wanted a visit to. She produced a map of this and the places she’d recommend etc. She let us know she was available if needed but also made sure we had everything we needed. We had a lovely stay and our children (as well as us!) enjoyed the house and the surrounding area.

We had a lovely weekend. The coach house was perfect for my family of 4 and a short distance to Longleat, the purpose of our weekend away. Also just a short walk to the supermarket/green grocer on the high street which was very convenient.

Idyllic historic property
Pictures don’t do the property full justice. Lovely secluded garden next to the owners property. Fully private, with your own small garden. Fantastic views from the castle mound a short, steep walk from the property. Nice small historic town location with good pubs, shops and chippy! Finding the property was tough as the whole street uses names not numbers, and I wasn’t given a phone number by VBRO nor an accurate map. SatNav couldn’t locate either. Very narrow road with tricky exit at one end…best to leave the other way. Helen is great, friendly and helpful. Off street parking a bonus.

Cosy cottage
Peaceful and perfect location for visiting Stourhead. Good facilities, everything you would need in the small but well planned kitchen. Good to have a separate dining area. Nice to have a bath but missed having a stand up shower. We found the cottage a little too warm at times. Good communication with our host who met us on arrival and gave helpful information.

Great stay!
We booked the coach house for a staycation as it had a perfect location enabling us to get to all of Dorset’s main points easily and we’re not disappointed! Great pubs around (The George food was great!) aswell as a great fish and chips along with local shops meant all bases were covered. The owner Helen was really helpful with giving advice on local points and really friendly and welcome.
