Beautiful place, loved every moment
Emma
We absolutely loved this cosy cottage! It's spotlessly clean and really well stocked with everything we needed. The beds were comfy and the showers had great water pressure. The owners were super friendly and nearby if we needed anything. Perfect for a peaceful getaway, though not ideal if you want shops close by. Great spot for exploring the coast!
Emma
The cottage was spotless and well-kept, tucked away in a peaceful rural spot. Plenty of sightseeing options within an hourand the host was super friendly. We really enjoyed our stay, thanks so much!
Emma
The place was really peaceful, perfect for relaxing. The only issue was the road - super narrow with sharp bendsand those tall hedges block your view. We almost had a crash! Would stay again, but beware of the tricky access. Quite an adventure!
Emma
Really enjoyed the peaceful stay
Emma
Cozy place, everything you need!
James
Lovely spot, would return
Emma
The Pigsty was surprisingly cosy and spotless, with all the bits we needed. We really enjoyed our stay, even though the flood damage meant no local walks for us. Instead, we found some lovely hills to explore. Perfect for a chilled break!
Laura
We really enjoyed our stay here! The place was spotless, cosyand had everything we needed. It's a quiet spot, perfect for relaxing. The welcome pack was a lovely touch. We loved visiting Hestercombe Gardens and the canal walks. Friendly staff at The Canal Inn, Lime Kilnand The Bear too. Would recommend!
Emma
The Pigsty cottage really exceeded our expectations. It's beautifully decorated and thoughtfully equipped, perfect for four adults. The place is spotless and feels very high-end. We stayed after picking up our campervan in Caldicot, heading to Taunton with friends for four nights. Even with the chilly, rainy weather, we didn't need the heating or fire - everything was so well insulated. We're not hot tub folks, but it's a lovely feature to have if you fancy it. Definitely recommend!
Emma W.
The Pigsty genuinely impressed us! Out of over thirty places we've stayed in, this was by far the most comfy, well-equippedand welcoming. We really appreciated how dog-friendly it was too. Would definitely come back and recommend it to anyone looking for a cosy stay with their furry friends.
Alexandra
This place was really comfy and spacious. We loved how the lounge, diningand kitchen all flowed together in the middle. The two big double bedrooms with ensuites at each end were perfect. Plus, the wifi was excellent, which isn't always a given.
