Lovely cottage with good sized bedrooms and bathrooms. Excellent underfloor heating Main room a good size. Plenty of good quality towels. TVs in main room and both bedrooms. Location is good except when the Levels are flooded as this greatly reduces number of walks and makes the lanes very muddy. North Curry is a lovely village with Post Office/ShoRead morep, Pub, several churches. Taunton is not far for shops, restaurants and supermarkets. Close to several NT properties. Good outlook from cottage. . Hide

The oven hadnt been cleaned and the kitchen equipment not replaced when broken. Beds uncomfortable probably due to age. View obstructed by building work. One bedroom only showed a brick wall.

What a fantastic property! The best smelling pigsty we have ever had the pleasure to stay in. Lisa and I loved it.

My friends and I had a wonderful visit to the very impressive, Pigsty. Three of us stayed, but it would have easily accommodated more people. The location is wonderfully peaceful, the surroundings were idyllic, and we would absolutely go again! Dogs were welcome and my puppy had a brilliant time!

Lovely holiday. We wanted to escape for Christmas; The Pigsty Orchards Farm was perfect. Great cottage, had everything we needed and the hosts/owners were very welcoming. The underfloor heating kept us cozy, beds were comfy, showers good, kitchen well equipped. We didn't use the hot tub as it was a log burner style, if we just had to push a button Read morewe may have used it (that is the only thing we would say, but the description does explain so we knew what we were booking). We loved our holiday Hide

Beautiful cottage and very well equipped with all you need. Good showers and comfortable beds. The owners are very near by as the cottages are in the garden Owners were helpful when needed. We loved the remote location but not for those wanting to be near to shops or places to eat. Good central base to visit the coast.
