Welcome to Ball Cottage, Winsford

Ball Cottage in Winsford (Somerset) sleeps up to 5 (max 4 adults). It is beautifully equipped and comfy while having all the character you would expect from a 17th-century cottage: wood and tile floors, an open fire and disused bread oven in the sitting room. There are roses climbing up the wall.

Ball Cottage in Winsford (Somerset) features an open fire and a disused bread oven; upstairs there’s a very old leaded window; and the floors are mainly wood or tile. The cottage has roses climbing up the wall and is set in a large garden. At the back is a beautiful spot where you can sit beside the River Exe near an old packhorse bridge. When the river is low, children have a happy time paddling and exploring.  There are three bedrooms: a double bedroom downstairs, plus two bedrooms upstairs, one double and one twin. The cottage sleeps up to 5 guests (max 4 adults) so your sleeping arrangements can be flexible. The bathroom upstairs has recently been redesigned; it has a bath, powerful shower, large heated towel rail and a shaver point.

We so enjoyed this cosy, beautifully decorated and charming cottage. Lots of welcoming little touches, and a very well equiped kitchen. We also loved the fabulous collection of books with many childhood classics - almost a shame we had amazing weather, so out all day and little time to read...

Lovely quaint comfortable cosy cottage. We had exceptionally good weather and made the most of the garden by the River Exe. Four adults is really the max which we were aware of. Would highly recommend and return again.
