Mendip District: pousadas

Our first visit to Bath was wonderfully enhanced by an over night stay with Petra & Dick; they were most welcoming, flexible with our wishes to check-in and made us feel right at home from the start to finish. The short bus ride from their house into Bath was very scenic as a bonus! Would wholeheartedly recommend a stay at this very nice place with an incredible garden of many levels providing sanctuary and scenic views - we were fortunate to enjoy some beautiful weather with the lovely breakfast they served outside too! We didn't feel like guests, we felt like we had known them all along :0)

Location was stunning, the host was lovely and it has beautiful walks on the doorstep. Hot tub definitely worth the extra money as elevates the stay to another level. The dog thoroughly enjoyed his stay as well!

We really loved staying here - our getaways with a toddler + 2 dogs can be stressful, but this was such a great place to stay that it removed all stress. The location was peaceful and quiet, the village itself was small and walkable for the local pub and playground for our daughter. It was easy to drive to local tourist spots and all the roads were fine. The accommodation itself was comfortable and clean and had all we needed. Can’t thank our hosts enough for such a pleasant stay.

Wonderful place - have been several times. Always fantastic

Oh, my! Naomi’s was beyond my dreams. It’s true. Lovely, lovely spot. And Naomi is, simply, what a gracious host should be. I felt so at home that I sensed I’d long lived there. I am very grateful I found Naomi’s and that, in all my own busy-ness, I was able to spend some time talking and listening. I will be back as soon as I can. That’s true, too. 🙏🙏

Mike and Celia are two friendly interesting people. They welcomed me into their home and everything is available to use. I highly recommend a stay here.

the venue is exactly as described and comfortably fitted 4 grand parents, 6 parents and 7 children under 11. oh and a dog georginia could not have been more helpful a really comfortable house that is extremely well equipped and feels like home no problem in heartily recommending a first class holiday home

We stayed one night at Briony’s and it was such a handy location for the centre of Salisbury. Briony makes you feel very welcome and the room is very spacious and comfortable. She set breakfast up for us in a separate room, with everything you can want. Parking is very easy and handy. We would definitely recommend staying here.

Louis is a top class host , he provides a comfortable , spotlessly clean and efficient place to stay. We liked the fact that we got clear instructions to access the house / room and effective help when we needed it. Thank you again ! Also great street parking - would highly recommend Louis’s place if your staying in Sandbanks.

Lovely clean home with lovely host. Would definitely stay here again. Lovely breakfast served with homemade jams on offer also.

I loved my time with Lucinda and Juno the dog. The room was perfect, with my own door from the outside, en-suite bathroom and the most comfortable bed ever. The breakfasts were delicious and it's walking/biking distance to Marlborough town centre and Savernake Forest, which I was able to explore (and loved). Would definitely recommend that people stay here!

David en Paul zijn duidelijk ervaren hosts. heel aardig, open (en grappig) en super behulpzaam. wij raden deze airbnb van harte aan. Mochten we ooit in de buurt weer wat gaan doen dan komen we graag weer genieten van het heerlijke ontbijt!

Lovely couple who have a beautiful countryside house with bed and breakfast. I really enjoyed my stay there! I would definitely go back :)

Me senti extremamente confortavel en casa. Não nos faltou de nada. O quarto é otimo, grande e muito bem decorado, o que o torna muito agradavel! A casa está super bem localizada a 10 minutos andando até o centro minutos, perto da Praia e a 5 min da Charminster Road. Martín é muito agradável e simpático. Ele nos deixou muito a vontade, muito respeitador e atencioso! Recomendo 100% Voltarei mais vezes! muito obrigado Martin!!!!

It's a shame we only stayed for 1 night, the property was lovely, very well furnished. Lots of little extras really made it feel special. Lots of Board games to play with. Charges in every room, Lots of coffee and teas, cereals. The location was really lovely, wish we was there for longer.

We stayed at Sue’s lovely place for a wedding nearby! She was so warm and welcoming. The beds were really comfy and the water pressure was great. She made us breakfast in the morning with yoghurt, fresh fruit and toast, and gave us a little tour around their home - the old chapel! Lovely stay and we’d definitely go back! Thank you xx

Darren and Chi made us feel so welcomed in their home. Breakfast was delicious and they were extremely flexible and accommodating. Their home is ideally located adjacent to a stairway leading into Bournemouth Upper Gardens and about a 16 min jog to Bournemouth main pier/beachfront. Perfect if you're looking for a weekend away on the coast!

Unfortunately, I had to cancel my stay at the last minute. Alison was extremely helpful, always very responsive in communications, gave very detailed location and access instructions, was very flexible re arrival times etc. I hope to rebook with Alison asap!

Lyn and John were fantastic hosts - being generous with lively conversation but also providing options for privacy as desired. I paid a reduced rate due to some regulars being out of town, but they are already providing an excellent value classic bed and breakfast service with homestay personal touches. Lyn offers a full cooked breakfast and cereals to all guests, but was happy to make adjustments to tastes and needs. John also makes a tasty coffee from the espresso machine. I would be glad to return if I am able to find a moment when they are not fully booked!

The Loft was the perfect place to stay for our trip to Dorset. Everything felt very clean and the room had everything we needed including a lovely breakfast selection and a nice big shower. We had a very peaceful night's sleep as the location is really quiet but still close enough to plenty of attractions. Maria was very responsive and we received a very warm welcome. We'd definitely return again :)

I stayed with Avril for one night and she is a very good host. The place was spotless, and in my room, which had a lockable door, I had tea and coffee making facilities, plus use of the main kitchen, for which she had bought me bread to toast for breakfast, as well as some chocolate filled buns. It's now my go to place to stay whenever I visit the area.

Stayed whilst working locally - absolutely beautiful location with very friendly and welcoming hosts - would highly recommend

Een liefdevolle en met aandacht ingericht huis. Fijne tuin inclusief kruidentuin voor de liefhebber zoals wij. Wij wilden meer opruimen, mocht niet. Ze zeiden “jullie hebben ook vakantie!” Toch opgeruimd uiteraard, omdat dit zo hoort.

Lovely old cottage with beautiful decor. Denise was super responsive and her instructions and visitor book were second to none with the details! We checked in super easily and felt right at home with some lovely welcome treats! The village is great although a little quieter than we had anticipated - the white horse inn is a must. The stairs leading to the bedrooms are quite steep - being 7 months pregnant was a bit of a challenge but perhaps more of an oversight on our part there and not a fault of the home! Definitely the place to go if you plan to do lots of walking - beautiful scenic routes.
