Orchard Farm Wedmore Pippin Reviews

Laurena
Our second stay in Pippin, with our friends staying in one of the other cottages again. Just perfect for what we needed. Clean and roomy for two and the dog. Fortunately, we didn't need the log burner this time. Fresh eggs, beer and cider all in the little hut for sale. The eggs were superb. Milk was in the fridge for when we arrived, also tea, cofRead morefee and biscuits. Great space for the dogs to run with a little stream too. Easy access to many parts of County and beyond. Highly recommended
Mark
The cottage was well situated to do day activities and explore. Perfect for the very hot weather flagstone floor kept us cool. The garden was just right to have your privacy. The cottage was clean, kitchen equipment was home from home. I would recommend for location.
Sue
