“Couldn’t have been any better, totally amazed! We celebrated my best friends hen-do at The Wilderness and spent an absolutely wonderful weekend there. The house is simply perfect for bigger groups. Lots of bedrooms, perfect layout of the rooms, the kitchen fully equipped with all one could need for bigger groups. The garden is just perfect for playing some games or relaxing in the sun. Everything was very clean and well kept. The house is also close to Bath and Bristol” Helen 2019 – Budapest Beautiful large cottage Great place for a get-together.. Lovely family time!
