Delightful. We have stayed in many holiday cottages over the years and this was the cleanest! Well-equipped and comfortable – small bathroom though. Owners friendly and unobtrusive. Thanks for the home produce! Loved the preseves. Great sculptures in the garden - beats a garden gnome. Tesco delivery of food ordered for arrival so cooked and eat in. Walks on doorstep (hey, people of Wiltshire, what is it with this fly tipping? Never seen as much) and car needed to visit anything beginning with “S” – Stonehenge, Shaftesbury (indoor market interesting) and Salisbury (Cathedral a must).

My husband and I stayed here for a short break. The Folly was easy to find, following the instructions given. Clare and Colin were very welcoming, they kindly supplied us with some provision such as bacon, eggs, milk, bread, butter, fresh fruit and some delicious homemade jam. The grounds the Folly is set in are beautiful (as is the main house gardens), there is parking for the car and then you go up some steps and along a path, past the pond to the house. It is a stunning building, with patio seating supplied to sit and admire the garden. The door opens into the kitchen, which has everything you need. The stairs lead up to the lounge, with some very comfortable seating, a log burner, writing desk and some lovely art work. Here there are three windows that look over the garden and beyond to the fields and Mere in the distance. There is a spiral staircase that takes you up to the bedroom and bathroom, both tastefully decorated. The bed is very comfortable, but we found the bathroom a tad on the narrow side, the shower is good to. We had a lovely stay here, it was so peaceful, to sit and read and listen to the sheep, birds and the sound of the wind in the trees, would highly recommend The Folly.

The Folly is a fantastic place for a peaceful escape from everything.
It is set in a beautiful peaceful location but close to many fantastic places to visit such as Stourhead which, is only a short drive away and Stonehenge just over 30 minutes away. The Folly has everything you need, but if there is anything extra required the wonderful hosts are close at hand.

The Folly is a lovely small getaway in beautiful countryside. Everywhere looked great with autumn colours doing their best. Very comfortable accommodation, with excellent welcome pack and well equipped cottage. Lots of dry wood supplied for the log burner. Good choice of books to browse through. Lots of places to visit nearby, including Stourhead and Bath, but lovely to come back to our temporary "home" to relax in the evenings. We would stay here again at any opportunity whatever the weather!
