About this property

No 1 - Withy Cottages

Withy Cottages can be booked for single nights as well as longer stays. We include a simple breakfast for the first night of your stay that will be left in the kitchen for you to prepare at your leisure, together with a well-stocked store cupboard.
The cottages have been tastefully renovated with many original features restored, we have decorated and furnished the cottage as if we were to be living there ourselves and we believe that we have made a truly comfortable home from home using only the very best to ensure that your stay with us is a wonderful experience.

No 1 Withy Cottages has two bedrooms – one double and one twin, bedrooms have ample storage space. Hotel quality bed linen with soft downy duvets and pillows.The bathroom has a bath with a shower over, luxury towels, robes & toiletries. Its cosy sitting room has a wood burner (logs provided), together with 2 comfy sofas a dining table that seats four, and a TV. The cottage has gas central heating a fully equipped kitchen with a selection of herbs and spices a fridge, with freezer compartment, a microwave, kettle, toaster, washer/dryer, radio also tea, coffee, sugar are provided. On your day of arrival, fresh milk will be in the fridge so you can settle in with a lovely fresh cuppa. Outside there is a private sunny patio area with seating for 4 with a BBQ. A large safe garden for children to run around and play.
There is a public footpath that passes the cottages which lead out over open fields towards the river and Muchelney for lovely walks close to home. Pets are welcome, we ask that dogs are kept on a lead whilst in the garden.
My properties are situated on the edge of the beautiful Somerset Levels where they combine peace and tranquillity with the convenience of being easy walking distance to Langport with its pubs, restaurants and shops. Ideal for weekly, mid-week or weekend stays for families, couples on a romantic holiday or special interests such as walking, bird watching, fishing and visiting the many national trust houses and historic monuments nearby.

The ancient beauty and diverse wildlife of the area makes it one of the landscapes that have inspired many artists and photographers as well as drawing visitors from all over the world. The ancient Muchelney Abbey is less than 2 miles from Huish Episcopi and Glastonbury Tor is only 12 miles away.

The cottages were built in the early 1800's these blue lias stone cottages would have originally been thatched and Withy House was built in 1898 in the style of a Victorian Villa. All have been have been tastefully renovated with many original features restored, I have decorated and furnished them as if we were to be living there myself and I believe that I have made a truly comfortable home from home using only the very best to ensure that your stay with us is a wonderful experience.

Wonderful cottage great location

Another lovely stay at withy cottages. Everything you could need for your stay, cottage is cosy and the owners go that extra mile to add in little extras. The location is quiet and peaceful but close enough to local amenities for everything you need, and the location is great for exploring and sight seeing beautiful villages and also the coast. This was not our first visit to withy cottages and won’t be our last - totally recommend 👍

Beautiful cottage in a lovely location

We stayed 8 nights for a wedding and then a rest! The cottage has all you need for a comfortable stay, the shower is fabulous, the beds are comfy. Mary stocked the cottage with lots of lovely bath and shower products, dressing gowns, hairdryer - all you could want and more. The kitchen is well stocked with jam, marmalade, bread, eggs from their hens, butter, cider! Wash up liquid, dishwasher capsules and more. Would definitely stay their again.

Lovely short break

We were visiting for a family wedding nearby and we were extremely impressed with the welcome and friendliness. The cottages are lovely and a much more relaxed option than a hotel. Nothing was too much trouble for our hosts and we were made to feel very comfortable. Thank you!

PERFECT!

We could only stay for one night, but were made to feel extremely welcome and really appreciated the breakfast items in the fridge and cupboard. Delightful cottage, lovely comfy beds and good quality linen (I'm fussy!) and is in a very accessible location. Would 100% recommend and come back again.

Charming, spotlessly clean cottage

Spent 4 wonderful nights at 1 Withy Cottage as we explored the region. The cottage was supplied with a full range of breakfast items including eggs from our hosts own chickens! We took advantage of the nice weather to soak up some sun on the adjoining patio. Our hosts were gracious and helpful when we needed assistance. If ever back in the same area we would absolutely book the cottage again.

Home away from home

Visiting from Australia to see a seriously ill elderly relative in the local village. Having our own place to stay and the great amenities was a godsend.

Warm welcome and charming cottage

Unfortunately, I only got to stay 1 night but fell in love with the quirky cottage with the flagstone floors and the fresh eggs left in the kitchen for breakfast along with 2 nice bottles of cider!

Lovely cottage beautifully furnished

Great halfway point for us travelling down to Cornwall. Beautifully refurbished cottage, particularly bedrooms. Unfortunately my 6 ft husband kept hitting his head on the low doorways and the pungent smell from the nearby abattoir spoilt our stay.

About the host

Host profile image
I have lived in Knapp House which is next to Withy Cottage for many years. I enjoy living in this beautiful & peaceful part of the country. I have thoroughly enjoyed renovating the cottages & house, transforming them into somewhere that our guests can really relax and enjoy the fabulous Somerset Levels on foot by bicycle or car.

I have worked as a Beauty Therapist for the past 30 years from my clinic in the small town of Castle Cary, just 25 minutes away.

I aim to offer the very best service you could hope for and as I live so close I am on always hand should you need.

With this in mind, although the accommodation is self-catering I have chosen to offer a simple breakfast for the first night of your stay which will be left in the kitchen for you to prepare for yourself at your leisure.
I love the area because of its natural beauty with each season there is always something happening. Fantastic nature and wildlife surround us in an understated way. Ideal for special interests such as walking, bird watching, fishing & visiting national trust houses & historic monuments nearby but yet not far from places such as Bath, Bristol & seaside West Bay, Lyme Regis.
