Cosy Cottage In Village Location Surrounded By Beautiful Countryside

Lower Brook Cottage is an 18th Century cottage located in the picturesque hamlet of Woollard between the villages of Pensford & Compton Dando in North East Somerset. There is a small cottage garden at the front and a large rear garden which stretches down to the River Chew and adjacent woodland. The village is surrounded by beautiful countryside with local wildlife including deer, heron, geese and ducks.
There are lots of country pubs nearby and the village is within easy reach of the historic cities of Bristol, Bath & Wells. Chew Valley Lake offers some of the best trout fishing in Europe with Cheddar Caves and the Mendip Hills just a short drive away.

Wonderful cottage, terrific location

We were welcomed in person on arrival. Nothing was too much trouble. The cottage was spotless, well appointed, really comfortable and homely. We had 3 lovely nights here, had great dog walks described to us, which we did. Great local pubs recommended to us, which we went to. We hope Steve and Sally will let us stay again.

England get away

We truly enjoyed our stay at the cottage. A nice spot to relax and enjoy the countryside. Central to scenic visiting spots, getting some groceries or just walking to the local pub. Sally and Steve were great hosts and eager to help if anything was needed. Will definitely recommend this property! Thanks so much to you both!! Kim & Steven

A fantastic property in a lovely area

Had a wonderful stay at Lower Brook Cottage and could not fault the place. The property is beautiful and has everything you need for a short break. The garden is huge and more than room for a dog to exercise and across the road is a huge field with countryside pathways across it and you can genuinely walk for miles. The hosts were excellent and there to see us in and give us the info we needed, nothing was too much trouble. I would recommend this to dog owners and those without alike as you wouldn't know it was a place where dog owners stay as there's no pet smell or signs of pets. Will definitely stay again should we get the chance and would absolutely recommend without hesitation.

Charming cottage in English countryside

This is an amazing cottage in the middle of very beautiful English countryside, like one would see in the Miss Marple series. It is very thoughtfully furnished and organised - there was everything one would need for a stay - comfortable beds, nice seating area, lots of storage space, all the necessary toiletries in the bathroom and condiments in the kitchen. We had everything we could wish for, even the egg cups were there! We found the house very clean and also very well maintained. There is a nice green lawn behind the house, where we had our breakfast. The surroundings are very peaceful and safe. Lots of possibilities for walking and exploring. The hosts, Sally and Steve are super friendly, welcoming and helpful. We only regret having to leave so soon and not having enough time to enjoy the cottage and the garden more. Thanks a lot for having us, we'd love to be back!

English country living realised.

Both the home and location were everything we had envisioned . Supremely quiet broken only by the clip clop of hooves and the early morning chorus. Steve met us on site and gave us a comprehensive introduction to the 0property. It totally exudes a homely feel that is evident the moment you step across the doormat. Beautifully presented and equipped with everything that you may need for a weeks stay. After each day of exploring, we came " home" to our very own place. Wonderful. I cannot but recommend Steve & Sally's vacation rental to all who aspire to a comfortable country holiday. An unqualified 11 / 10. Thanks guys. You absolutely deserve the kudos.

Great location abs fabulous walks

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay. The cottage was clean and comfortable and the owners very friendly and helpful. We travelled with our dog and the only real improvement for us would have been for the garden to be fully dog-proof. Overall highly recommended with fantastic walks right from the door.

Take tennis balls

Lower Brook cottage is lovely. It was very clean, just about everything provided, extremely comfortable and cosy. The walks in the area were gorgeous and so many routes to choose. Sally and Steve were welcoming, friendly and absolutely brilliant hosts. They even allowed their beautiful Labrador to befriend and play with ours which totally made her holiday. We felt very lucky to have found and stayed at such a first class place. Thank you S and S.

Perfect hosts, friendly welcome. A lovely clean cottage, a pleasure to stay in. The only disappointment was from the ad description we did not expect to share a garden and common areas outside of the kitchen window.
