Review 22：My wife did not like drive over the final few miles back into The Old Dairy Bishops Barton because they were on very narrow lanes.
Review 23：The whole experience was very pleasant because my wife and I enjoy the quiet countryside more than the clamor and press of an urban setting. Clean quiet room with an excellent full English breakfast served by the gracious owner. Walking paths nearby as was a very fine pub.
Review 24：Loved the location. Peaceful with stunning garden and views. Very friendly welcome by owners who couldn't have been more helpful. We were offered lifts to and from a lovely restaurant and enjoyed an excellent dining experience there.A lovely part of the world and would definitely stay again.They thought of absolutely everything, also the breakfast was one of the best cooked breakfasts ever,
Review 25：small dark bedroom, walk to the pub, [part of the promotion] seemed dangerous, especially in the twilight; narrow roads and no footpaths. Tomato sales. I hope I have written enough for my comments to qualify.

Stylish and modern with excellent ensuite. Really good breakfasts. Nothing seemed too much trouble for the owners and we would thoroughly recommend for an overnight or longer stay.

Review 34：We all loved everythig about The Old Dairy. I booked the place solely on reviews. However, I had a very bad experience recently at a place where was booked same way. Everything looked just how I wanted on screen. I still was preparing myself for something, anything to be disappointing. How wrong I was. The Old Dairy has a wow factor on every level. Set in beautiful garden. The rooms have character and yet clutter free and spotlessly clean. For someone like me who has OCD on hygiene and cleanliness, you have no idea what a joyful experience that was. The owners were very welcoming. The breakfast was delicious served with with home made bread. If we ever come down this part of the country, I do not need to look for a place to stay.
Review 35：The rooms are furnished to a high standard, all immaculate. Owners are very nice and offer a excellent service. Area is out in rural Somerset but well worth staying there, views and grounds are stunning. We can't wait to stay again soon. Many thanks to Liz and Steve.

Review 65：Absolutely nothing
Review 66：Beautifully appointed en suite room set in well tended gardens. I'm not generally a great sleeper when away from home but the bed was so comfortable I almost overslept! At breakfast whilst I only opted for scrambled egg and bacon as opposed to the full works the eggs were simply wonderful! I will certainly look to use Bishops Barton next time I'm stopping over on business.
Review 67：It would be useful to have a well placed mirror in the 4 poster room Ditto a coffee table in that room A common area like a lounge where friends (we were 4) and other guests could meet and sit about comfortably (with a log fire?!) would elevate The Old Dairy from very good to outstanding, ultimate country location....
Review 68：As above - location on a higher ground and views, building aesthetics, quality of build & finish and friendliness- from Rizla the cat to Liz n Steve. Comfortable rooms, accessible parking that is unobtrusive.
