Tatworth is just three miles from the town of Chard and only a mile or two from the borders of both Dorset and Devon. This lovely period cottage has been renovated to an extremely good standard, offering a delightful, comfortable home-from-home. The handy porch leads through to the cosy sitting room with settee, chairs, coffee table , bookcase and TV and features a lovely open fire providing a good place for your group to socialise. Stairs go up from the sitting room to the first floor. A door way leads from the sitting room into the large dining room which has a dining table and chairs and warming, wood burner-style gas fire. Within the dining room is another seating area consisting of TV, tub chairs and coffee table so that it can double up as a social space once dinner is over.

By Mrs Glew on 18-Aug-2020”Great base for exploring all the local attractions quiet and tranquil it was a cosy cottage to stop in had a really relaxing holiday would highly recommend stopping here
Brilliant first family holiday!
By ellekali on 27-Mar-2016The cottage was very beautifully and thoughtfully decorated. Everything we needed was within the kitchen, WiFi was faster than at home and very reliable, the location was perfect. The bedrooms were very well presented with lots of lovely details, we can't wait to book again for next year, we had a fantastic time! It would be perfect for families or couples looking to escape, the owners clearly have put a lot of thought into making this a holiday cottage you'd want to return to year after year!
