AA 4\* Gold Award Self Catering Property. The cottage has been lovingly and sympathetically renovated, and fitted with lots of discreet mod-cons The perfect bolt hole for 2, with super comfy king size bed, squashy velvet sofa and wood burning stove, this really is the place to be to enjoy a cosy time away with a loved one (and your dog!). There's a village pub, and Co-op too. The space The cottage is set back from a quiet little road in the village of Pilton. When you come in the front door from the little cottage front garden, you’ll be greeted by a lovely little lounge, with original flagstone flooring and vintage Beni Ourain rug from the Atlas mountains which is super soft under foot. There’s a smart tv, with Sonos Soundbar, Netflix, Amazon Prime and a DVD Player, Fast Fibre WiFi, Sonos speakers and Alexa if you want your tech, and boho-chic colours and styling with a wood burner and a soft sofa and comfy high backed arm chair if you just want to kick back and relax. The lounge is so peaceful, getting the afternoon sun in through the little window, and staying cool in summer with the stone flooring, yet you can stoke it up nice and toasty for those cosy winter evenings infront of the wood burner. The kitchen is through the doorway off the back of the lounge - all recently refurbished. We love to cook, so we’ve provided almost everything you could think of in the kitchen to make your stay easier, and many guests have commented on this in their reviews!. There’s an induction hob, electric fan oven, slim dishwasher and microwave, and a fridge freezer. You’ll also find a nespreso machine and a couple more sonos speakers if you fancy music and coffee (although please bring your own coffee pods!). Through to the bathroom, with Bramley shampoo, shower gel, hand wash and hand cream for a touch of luxury during your stay. There's an electric shower over the bath which heats water on demand to a nice hot temperature. The light above the mirror will come on automatically when it detects movement after dusk, to help you navigate the cottage at night. From the back door in the kitchen, you can access the fully enclosed rear garden. There’s a patio set, a barbecue and lighting for using the outdoor space at night. (Although be sure to keep the lights off when star-gazing ! - the village has no street lights, so there is hardly any light pollution - the Pilton stars are hence amazing !) Upstairs at the cottage is 1 bedroom with a lovely comfy king size bed with Egyptian cotton sheets. The windows both have black out curtains/blinds to block out the morning light. There’s a little desk and an Italian leather office chair to use as a dressing table or light use workspace - and a comfy little armchair if you want to sit by the window upstairs and read. A salon grade hairdryer is supplied so no need to pack your own from home. \*\* PLEASE NOTE\*\* The bedroom has some very low sloped ceilings which run close to the bed on one side, so may not be suitable for very tall folk or those with mobility or balance issues. The stairs up to the bedroom are old and a little crooked so again, may not be suitable for those with limited mobility. The bedroom also has one floor level window with no safety catch (just a normal window latch) so may not be suitable for toddlers and young children. Please feel free to get in touch with any questions, we'll be happy to help We currently offer 3 night minimum stays, so we can afford our housekeeper to do the brilliant job she does, and to reduce the impact of potentially lots of shorter stays on our lovely neighbours and the village as a whole. We also allow up to 2 small/medium sized dogs to stay (and the cottage and village are perfect for dog lovers!). We can’t allow any more than this unfortunately as the space is just too compact (and old!) - if you have more (or bigger!) dogs then we’d recommend looking at some of the more spacious places in the village and surrounding areas. Parking is on the road right in front of the cottage - its a quiet lane, not a busy thoroughfare, and we've never had an issue with ourselves or guests parking there. Unfortunately there is no "off road" parking due to the size of our little cottage. Have an electric vehicle ? - Pilton has 2 EV charging points at the Co-op - just 5 minutes walk away from the cottage. There is a 22Kw and a 7Kw lead, and there's no issue leaving your car there overnight to charge (we do this regularly!). Download the "City EV" app for access. If you need something faster, there are 2 x Instavolt 150Kw Chargers at Charlton House Spa in Shepton Mallet, just down the road. ## Property amenities ### Internet - Available in the cottage: WiFi ### Parking and transport - Electric car charging station on site ### Kitchen - Coffee/tea maker - Cookware, dishware, and utensils - Dishwasher - Electric kettle - Hob - Microwave - Oven - Refrigerator - Toaster ### Bedrooms - Bedroom - Bedsheets provided ### Bathroom - 1 bathroom - Hair dryer - Soap - Toilet paper - Towels provided ### Living spaces - Fireplace ### Entertainment - Books - DVD player - Games - Smart TV - Stereo - Video library ### Outdoor areas - Barbecue grill - Patio ### Laundry - Laundry facilities - Washing machine ### Work spaces - Desk - Desk chair ### Comfort - Heating ### Pets - Pet friendly - Welcoming dogs only - Up to 10 kg per pet ### Suitability/Accessibility - Smoke-free property ### Services and conveniences - Iron/ironing board ### Location highlights - In a village ### Safety features - Carbon monoxide detector (host has indicated there is a carbon monoxide detector on the property) - Smoke detector (host has indicated there is a smoke detector on the property) - First aid kit - Fire extinguisher ### General - At least 80% lighting from LEDs - Eco-friendly cleaning products used - Eco-friendly toiletries - Electric car charging station - Property does not allow children - Recycling ## Policies ### Check-in Check-in time starts at 3:00 PM Minimum check-in age - 18 ### Check-out Check-out before 11:00 AM ### Special check-in instructions You will receive an email from the host with check-in and check-out instructions ### Check-out instructions The host requires you to complete the following before checking out: Load and start the dishwasher Strip any used beds and gather used towels Remove personal items, remove leftover food and drinks and take out the rubbish Turn off the lights, lock the doors and return the keys Failure to complete these may result in a negative review from the host. ### Pets Pets are allowed Service animals are welcome, and are exempt from fees Welcoming dogs only 2 total (up to 10 kg per pet) ### Children and extra beds This property does not allow children ### Events No events allowed ### Smoking Smoking is not permitted ## Important information ### You need to know This property is managed by a private host (a party not acting within their trade, business or profession).

We had a lovely stay. The cottage is cosy and had everything we needed. Perfect base for exploring the local area. Pilton village is beautiful and very quiet. ##### Loeke B. Stayed 4 nights in May 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Alice W. 7 May 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### A beautiful cottage in a special place Wow - what a wonderful stay we had! The cottage is absolutely gorgeous and has clearly had a lot of care and attention poured into every detail. The sound system was a real bonus and really made the place feel extra special. We loved looking through the photo album left of the renovations Darren and Nicky had done over the years! The village itself is beautiful too, a really peaceful tranquil place if you’re looking for a true getaway. We had a meal at The Crown in the village on a Friday night and were lucky enough to be there on a night with music and lots of dancing. The locals were all very friendly and welcoming (as was the cider!). Darren was brilliant and there for any questions we had. He got back to us very quickly and even recommended a lovely walk around the village. We didn’t have a car but didn’t feel we needed one on reflection - there is plenty to explore and a bus to Glastonbury town too which was a really special day out (the tor is a must!). I would happily stay at this beautiful cottage again - in fact I want to move in! I’d recommend it to anyone. Thank you Darren and Nicky. ##### Alice W.
