- 13 Jun 2011 We have recently returned from a fabulous extended family holiday at Sleepy Hollow Cottages. We stayed in all three cottages which was brilliant for having our own space, but also great for doing things together as well. Our group ranged from 8 years old to 60+ and there was plenty of places to see and visit to suit everyone in our party. The cottages themselves were also a lovely base when people fancied a quiet day in and perfect for fun evening get togethers when we returned from exploring. Trevor and Cath were extremely welcoming, helpful and accommodating and the children loved playing in the beautiful gardens whilst the adults enjoyed relaxing in the surroundings. I would highly recommend Sleepy Hollow Cottages for a lovely family holiday.
- 30 May 2011 Stayed at Sleepy Hollow during May 2011. Cath and Trevor were very friendly, hospitable and helpful and the accomodation was well appointed and comfortable in a tranquil and picturesque spot. We enjoyed walks around the immediate locality of Barton St David / Keinton Mandeville and also further afield to Somerton, Glastonbury and Street. Cycling was very good too along some lovely quiet and scenic routes. Castle Cary, Langport and the Polden Hills all within easy reach by bike. Enjoyed two meals in The Quarry Inn in Keinton Mandeville - 25 mins walk from Sleepy Hollow. Wide-ranging menu of well-cooked food, including a very good selection of vegetarian options and very friendly and pleasant landlord/lady.
- 17 May 2011 We stayed in Sleepy Hollow Cottages (Nap Cottage) during March 2011. The accommodation was lovely - having some great features such as wood burning stove / spiral stair case. We were lucky enough to have great weather during our stay, although we can imagine that Nap cottage is a very cosy to place to stay during those cold winter nights! Cath and Trevor were very welcoming and very hospitable! As well as great accommodation, being in Barton St. David, Sleepy Hollow is great for exploring the local area such as Glastonbury and local Cider farms (I am sure Cath and Trev would be happy to suggest good places to visit if you have time during your stay!). I would highly recommend Sleepy Hollow as a relaxing retreat, and look forward to staying again soon!
- 5 Jan 2011 We stayed in the lovely Sleepy Hollow Cottages, with our two little girls and our dog over the Christmas period. It was our base for visiting family members who live nearby. The accommodation was spotless, very well maintained, and very cosy considering the freezing temperatures outside! Trevor and Cath were very hospitable indeed and even offered to go to Tescos for us before we arrived! Barton St David is a peaceful hamlet and with the towns of Street and Glastonbury near by we weren't short of places to visit. Our dog made full use of the paddock to have her morning run and I am told that there is an area for children that can be used in the warmer times. We are looking forward to staying there again during the summer months. We would recommend Sleepy Hollow as a good place to stay and enjoy beautiful Somerset.
- 8 Oct 2010 A lovely little retreat I had a fabulous stay in one of the cottages at Sleepy Hollow, Cath and Trevor were very hospitable and friendly and nothing was too much trouble for them. The cottage is a one storey with a lovely lounge and kitchen area which is fully equipped - we were able to make sausage and mash the evening we arrived, there are 2 bedrooms and a bathroom. It is in such perfect surroundings with apple and pear trees, their back field was full of sheep which I thought had arrived just for me - I was able to go and feed them with a couple of windfall apples. The Dorset Coast was about an hours drive away and spent a lovely afternoon walking along the beach. Our final day was spent cycling around the area and finished off by picking blackberries - which I have now made into jam. All in all a perfect retreat from the hustle and bustle of London, I would highly recommend and will be visiting again soon (Sept 10)
