Reviews for Backways Farmhouse
Review 1：The rooms were so clean and comfortable. The surroundings were beautiful and the location so quiet. Our host couldn't have been more helpful and friendly. I wish we could have stayed for longer!!
Review 2：Peaceful and tranquil location, great base for exploring the Somerset countryside. Genuine and warm welcome from the owners for whom nothing was too much trouble. Loan of OS map was a boon and the view from my room was great. Spacious but cosy bedroom with sofa to relax, freshly decorated bathroom with very effective shower. I really enjoyed my three night stay!
Review 3：Had to use mobile data in the room, could only get WiFi in certain areas of downstairs lounge
Review 4：Very welcoming and friendly. Breakfasts were excellent and location peaceful.
Review 5：Nothing
Review 6：If you are looking for a rural location in a traditional farmhouse environment this is ideal. Very rustic and comfortable.Clean and well decorated in keeping with the building. Owners were friendly and informative.
Review 7：We were made to feel very welcome and the farmhouse was a beautiful place to stay in with lots of character in a beautiful setting. Everything about our stay was perfect
Review 8：Everything was perfect!
Review 9：Vanessa and Ty were extremely welcoming! I loved the fact that everybody had breakfast at the same table. It made the trip very enjoyable for a solo traveller like myself. Breakfast was plenty and tasty.The room was comfortable and I had everything I needed and more. Vanessa and Ty really went above and beyond!! I can highly recommend this snug B&B
Review 10：The bedroom was rather sparsely furnished--only one medium - sized drawer in addition to the clothes cupboard. Only one pub nearby provided reasonable meals -- that depended on which chef was on duty.
Review 11：The welcome we received
Review 12：Nothing at all to complain about.
Review 13：This wonderful B&B lived up to its glowing reviews. I was met with a warm welcome by the owning couple, who genuinely went out of their way to make me feel at home. The rural location, with its cats, rabbits and chickens in the yard brought back happy childhood memories of staying with my grandparents in Mid Wales. The restored farm house has been sympathetically brought into the 21st century. The bed in the spacious bedroom was most comfortable - just what I needed after a long day driving. The shower was excellent too. Breakfast was top notch. I enjoyed helping myself to the selection of cereals, followed by being served a hearty cooked breakfast, accompanied by toast, coffee and orange juice. While I admit I was a little apprehensive when I read another review about all guests eating their breakfast on the same table, I need not have been. Far from being 'Billy no mates' as is normally the case while overnighting on work trips, I enjoyed talking to fellow guests - as opposed to the familiar polite small talk if one is lucky. Overall, I would not hesitate to stay here again. I have recommended it to colleagues and others in my industry - and hope to bring my better half here on a leisure break soon. The latter says it all.
Review 14：Everything was great there were no negatives!!!
Review 15：Ty and Vanessa were very welcoming and have a great farmhouse to stay at. The rooms are great and the breakfast is just what you need to start your day! The location is close to Wellington town and only 20 miles from the seaside at Minehead. We will definitely be staying again when we visit our family in Wellington.
Review 16：From the moment we arrived Ty and Vanessae made us feel like feel like we had just arrived home. The room was clean and comfortable. They advised on local eateries, even providing a map should we need it. The location of the B&B is perfect if you are looking for a stop off when traveling up or down the M5. Also they were more than happy to secure our pushbikes for the overnight stay. The breakfast was taylor made to our taste, even with eggs from their own hens.
