Snaptrip says

Heron Lodge Castle Farm in Wedmore, Somerset, is highly praised for its stunning views, particularly of Glastonbury Tor, and its peaceful, rural setting. Guests consistently commend the cleanliness, modern amenities, and the added luxury of a hot tub. The presence of friendly animals like alpacas and Billy the dog adds charm. While some minor issues with comfort and facilities are noted, the overall sentiment is overwhelmingly positive, with many guests eager to return.

Guests that stayed at this property said

Reviews frequently highlight the lodge's cleanliness, with guests describing it as spotless and well-maintained. Occasional mentions of spiders webs due to the rural location slightly affect the score.

The location is consistently lauded for its tranquility, stunning views, and proximity to local attractions. The rural setting provides a perfect backdrop for a relaxing stay.

Guests find the lodge comfortable overall, with praise for the spaciousness and the quality of the showers. However, some guests mention issues with soft mattresses and sofas, which suggests room for improvement.

The lodge's facilities, including the hot tub, well-equipped kitchen, and Wi-Fi, are appreciated by guests. Some feedback on the need for better utensils and more glasses indicates minor areas for enhancement.

While guests express gratitude for the well-equipped lodge and the presence of towels and soap, there are no specific mentions of gifts or extra thoughtful touches that would warrant a score in this category.

The property boasts an open-plan living area including fully fitted kitchen, with light flooding in from bi-folding doors that bring the outdoors in. There are three bedrooms; one upstairs king-size room with an en-suite, the other downstairs king-size and children's bunk bedroom share a fully fitted wet room.

    Plenty to see and do all within 30 minutes drive of the location and everywhere we ate the food was amazing. The lodge was the perfect size for the 6 of us and safe enough for a 2 year old to roam and play. Will be going back for sure.

  • Hayley

    Location and comfort of the place was 5 star, the hot tub was an added bonus and we used it both evenings. We would all definitely recommend to others and hopefully will return ourselves one day too!

  • Milad

    I will most certainly be back and will recommend this location to everyone. 5 stars
