The Flat Axbridge

Convenience

Noise from hairdressers below

In town and close to facilities

No washing machine

Lovely flat. Everything we needed. Very comfortable.

High end, contemporary style property in a beautiful historic town. The reservoir made a nice walk with other natural attractions nearby. Local people were friendly and there was small supermarket around the corner. Free day and overnight parking a five minute walk away.

You could hear the conversations from the hairdressers below during the day.

This was a fabulous find in perfect location in Axbridge - a gem of a town. The flat, much bigger than expected, was perfectly equipped for our short stay. Everything you would need in the kitchen including a coffee machine for that perfect brew first thing in the morning. Spacious bedrooms with lovely comfy beds with high quality linen for a good nights sleep. The little roof terrace was an absolute bonus and we were lucky enough to have the perfect weather to make full use of it,

The only downside was, as other reviews have mentioned, the lack of sound proofing from the hair salon under the living room / kitchen area. Although this wasn't as noticeable in the in the bedroom on the same level, being further back. We stayed over a long weekend so it wasn't too much of an issue as they are closed Sunday / Monday so we were only aware of it on our last morning. It wouldn't stop us staying again though.

Clean & all facilities were in place

Great location. Well equipped and furnished. Comfortable beds and quality bed linen. Having 2 bathrooms was great. The weather was surprisingly lovely and so the small roof terrace was good to have. Also very close to pubs (great food in The Lamb) and to a Co-op.

Nothing negative. Although the photo on Booking.com site of view from roof terrace shows the village square but the actual view is different and not as attractive. That should be changed but it didn’t detract from a lovely stay.

We stayed at The Flat in April and enjoyed our stay; everything was as described and was comfortable. We had one small issue which was sorted immediately by the hosts who were really friendly and approachable, and apart from the door of the bathroom not fitting properly (Old property issue), everything else was lovely. The parking was no problem, with spaces outside for overnight parking and the village car park only a minute or two away, a local shop on the doorstep, and a really nice pub opposite (which didn't cause any noise problems at all). Good walks from the door, we walked around the reservoir, and up to the old railway and beyond, and you could walk to Cheddar easily I believe, although we didn't, visiting by car (go early and parking is easy along the gorge). Had a nice meal in one of the Cheddar pubs, and also ate at the Brent House Carvery on the A38 only 15 mins or so away, which was nice. All in all a nice break away.
