    The breakfast was brought to the room at a time of our choosing and was excellent. The location was less than one mile from the event which was the reason for the visit.

The annex is entirely self contained with a small kitchen area equipped with a fridge, hob and multi function oven. There is a kettle and complimentary tea and coffee bags and a jug of fresh milk in the fridge. I serve breakfast in your room at a time of your choosing from 8.00 to 9.30 am, and whilst the menu is small, I have concentrated on serving locally sourced ingredients from our excellent butcher, Cobbs, in Cheddar and homemade bread rolls. The eggs are either from my daughters chickens or a local supplier.I serve a pot of fresh coffee and/or a pot of tea with your breakfast in the morning and local apple juice when available. There is a large driveway for parking and secure facilities for bicycles overnight. You can walk easily to both the beautiful reservoir and the gorge from our location as well as a really superb choice of restaurants and pubs. We are on What3Words should you have the app. to locate us. If you are looking for a day out to remember after you have climbed the spectacular Cheddar Gorge, I can highly recommend ( from personal experience) a chocolate making course in a village outside Glastonbury. It is run by the renowned chocolatier, Jane Swayne from Gilbert and Swayne and is both fun and informal, running for 5-6 hrs including a light lunch with wine. All ingredients are supplied with a minimum of 70 amazing chocolates to take away with you. Jane had an article printed about her in The Guardian November 2024 and has also taught the art of chocolate making to professional chefs. Please check her website for prices or contact me for her details as I cannot advertise them on this page.
