Holiday rentals with lake access in South Somerset District

Amazing break away from London city life. Amazing host and the property is flawless. Highly recommend getting a supermarket delivery to the property.

We had a fantastic 2 night stay at the chapel. Lovely interiors, comfy beds and very peaceful surroundings. The beach is only a short drive and Stephanie recommended some delicious food options- The parlour for Italian in the coolest setting and sundorbon authentic Indian who delivered to the door…would highly recommend both! Overall a little gem!

Three of us and the dog stayed at David’s cottage and we had a wonderful time. The place was spotless when we entered, it was everything we needed. David was very communicative and helpful. We spent a lot of time in the garden as luckily the weather was in our favour and it was fenced in so the dog could run around with furniture for us to use. The cottage is in a perfect location, off of the main road so it was quiet and peaceful and just down the road from the sandbanks which we visited frequently. I highly recommend anyone interested in staying here I haven’t got a single fault! :)

Thankyou, we had a really pleasant 3 day break with friends in this lovely Dorset cottage. The views and garden were gorgeous( shared with owner) and the cottage well equipped, very comfortable and hygienic. Our host was readily available to help with any queries. We hope to return in the future. On arrival after pulling up and believing we were in someone elses private drive, I would suggest changing wording on instructions to get to house to Old Brewery( instead of Brewery Cottage) and put a sign on back gates to say Barley Cottage. This might be helpful at front too.

We had a very lovely stay. Nicola provided a high chair and travel cot to accommodate for our 10 month old baby. The hot tub was lovely and private and the views were stunning.

Lovely home for our large family get together. When asked questions Elisha was very quick to respond and even recommended some lovely restaurants. We loved Penarth it’s such a lovely place to stay. We could stroll for about 20 minutes to the pier and various restaurants from the house. Also easy access into the city by train.

A lovely, relaxing couple of nights stay. The Coach House has all you need, is warm and cosy and very comfortable. The beds are super comfy and the duvets really warm and cosy. The garden is very private and a lovely feature, and for anyone staying in warmer weather has everything you need to spend plenty of time outdoors. If you're looking to keep your steps up, try a walk round the lakes, lots of bird life, very interesting. The lighting system took a bit of getting used to but is very ambiant and well thought out. The kitchen has plenty of space so you can cook and chat. It would have been good if the oven had worked but we were told about this beforehand and provided with an airfryer so could work around this quite easily. The host was always quick to respond, kept in touch and made our stay very easy. I would recommend The Coach House for a very relaxing and comfortable stay. All the quirky little touches make The Coach House quite unique and we would definately return.

We had a wonderful stay at Shire Cottage. It had everything we needed for a relaxing weekend, and having a highchair and travel cot available was such a bonus. The scenery was absolutely beautiful—peaceful, private, and easy to find with the clear instructions provided. We thoroughly enjoyed our time here and can’t wait to return!

Guy’s description that no photographs can do justice to the setting of Bossington Hall is absolutely accurate; the property sits in an elevated position overlooking Porlock Vale and the sea and the views are stunning. The self-catering apartment was very well appointed, well-equipped and spacious and was a great base from which to explore the this lovely corner of North Somerset. Being on the ground floor, it has the benefit of its own enclosed terrace (good with dog) and cool nights, as we visited during g a mini-heatwave! Guy was a very friendly and welcoming host, full of useful tips and provided plenty of local info, plus personal recommendations for local restaurants etc. We thoroughly enjoyed our visit and would be keen to return and maybe try the B&B rooms next time as the breakfast smelt delicious!

An absolutely beautiful place to stay. It was so quiet and peaceful, absolutely lovely walks around the lake where we saw deer and baby geese. The place itself was clean and well equipped with everything we needed. We had fresh eggs from Jo and Jay’s chickens, juice, milk and other breakfast bits. The place came with binoculars which we used on our walk around the lake and on our day at Arne. We bumped into Jo who came out of her way to say hello and to ask how everything was. I cannot fault a single thing about our stay, it was exactly what we needed to relax ans detox and we will absolutely be back in the future!

We were in Bishop Sutton for the Chew Valley 10k and also to renew our acquaintance with the area as our relatives came from the area.

Excellent accommodation, very clean, well equipped, perfect location, short walk to amenities & seafront. Lots of lovely homely touches. Very good communication with owner who was super helpful. Didn’t find key box straight away, but that was user error as hidden in plain sight 🤣. Thank you would highly recommend and would most definitely go back.

Had a wonderful stay, thank you for sharing your wonderful accommodation.

Sheralee's apartment is in an absolutely perfect location for enjoying a holiday in Sandbanks. The views are so beautiful and peaceful of the harbour from the balcony, bedroom window and living room window. There was everything we needed in the Airbnb and we loved eating dinner on the balcony as well as at the dining table in the living room. Would highly recommend staying here and we would love to come back another time. So lovely that there is such easy access to both the harbour side (we did kayaking there) and the beach side through the Jazz Café entrance to the beach. Also, having the Tesco Express as part of the same building was really handy to buy food from!

Really nice top floor flat with great views of the harbour. Glenn was a top host and really responsive providing clear instructions. Would highly recommend!

Geoff is a great host, very helpful and responsive. The flat is very cozy, clean, has comfortable beds and a beautiful view. Loved our stay.

Our stay at Jacqueline’s cottage was superb. It is quite spacious, airy and bright. The house is nicely appointed and extremely well equipped. Jacqueline was very welcoming and a very responsive host. We would definitely stay again. We had trouble finding the place using the Airbnb map. It took us to a totally different location. Entering the address in your own satnav/gps works though.

Janey's place was in a lovely, secluded corner of Compton Abbas that provided a true sense of peace and privacy in stunning surroundings, whilst remaining just a short car journey away from town. Our lovely hostess was extremely charming and her Airbnb was full of thoughtful, personal touches throughout the property that made us feel right at home. We could not recommend Janey enough and encourage anyone to consider staying at her place. It's truly one in a million with a beautiful boat accessible lake right on the doorstep and acres of land to explore. Steve & Anna

We had a brilliant stay at the Pink House! The house itself was beautifully decorated and was warm and inviting - we felt really at home here. Deborah was very friendly and responsive in her communication and sent us lots of local recommendations of things to do and places to visit. The garden was really private and we loved the built in BBQ and home-grown tomatoes and cucumbers, and the welcome basket that we're waiting for us when we arrived. The Pink House is in a great location with walks right from the front door and only 15-30 mins drive to the various beaches. We had a wonderful stay and wished we booked for longer - we'll definitely be back again!

A lovely cottage perfect for a countryside getaway. We were given really clear instructions for how to get to the property. When we arrived, there was fresh bread, butter, milk and jam left for us. All of the furniture was incredibly comfortable and clean. A really lovely stay 😊

Helen and Paul’s place is the most beautiful and thoughtfully curated Airbnb we’ve ever stayed in. This home truly goes above and beyond, every room is filled with beautiful, thoughtful touches that made our stay feel so special. From homemade sourdough bread waiting for us, to individual toiletries and everything you could possibly need already provided, it was clear how much care and love has gone into creating this space. The garden was absolutely stunning, with cozy, comfortable furniture perfect for relaxing. And the hot tub under the stars! Just magical. The entire stay felt like a peaceful retreat, and we left feeling completely recharged. Helen and Paul were the perfect hosts — incredibly friendly, welcoming, and helpful. We can’t recommend this place highly enough.

Absolutely stunning place. Was sad to leave. If I’m in the area again I will be booking this beautiful place. Thanks so much pippa x

This is a stunning, very old property in the most beautiful location. We were grateful for the communication with Sally before and during our stay. There is so much to do both inside and outside the house. Wish we had more time to explore the area.

We had a lovely stay at the cottage, the cottage was perfect base for the two of us and our dog Vinnie. The setting was a surprise even more beautiful than I thought right on the river with a short walk into Wareham - the Wareham seal even made an appearance for us. All in all a fantastic stay lovely memories made at lulworth cover, durdle door, Arne rspb and the blue pool all in a very short distance - the perfect base. Honestly cannot recommend enough
