perfect get away!
We only stayed one night but would have stayed longer. Beautiful farm house, warm and cosy. Met with tea and cake on arrival and nothing was too much bother. Dinner booked, wonderful breakfast and lovely room. Very clean and felt at home but well looked after. Got a bath shower which was a luxury with proper complimentary essentials. Would recommend without a doubt. Thanks Mike for a brilliant stay!

review
The accomodation was quite far from Cheddar and we couldnt find it with our GPS just with our clever phone. Acc. is very nice and clean, breakfast was absolutley enough for us.
If I would like to escape from busy city I would like to go back. Nobody will find me :)

This is a lovely B&B and our first, we usually stay in hotels. But the friendly reception we got from Mike has changed our minds to trying more B&Bs. The bedroom is beautifully decorated with tea and coffee facilities and the bed was soft and comfortable. The bathroom is modern with everything you need. Mike's breakfast would put some hotels to shame. There was everything you could possibly want and plenty of it. Mike gave us a good run down of places to visit close by, so we will definitely be back for a longer visit next time.

Warm welcome, pleasant stay
We received a wonderful warm welcome, followed by a very welcome cup of tea and a slice of cake.
A great start to our week in the South West

We had a fab time! One of the best guest houses I have ever stayed in.
A warm welcome. Very cleam and comfy 'King' room. Lovely and quiet and relaxing. A real break and I would recommend it to anyone.

Very accomodating to requests and very friendly. Excellent breakfast to set you up for the day. Would use again.

Our stay at Hillview Farm
Delightful location, Mike was a great host and made our stay very enjoyable. Would recommend this accommodation without hesitation.

Excellent All-Round Experience At Hillview Farm
Apart from being a perfect base to explore the Cheddar Gorge and other Somerset beauty spots, this accommodation is first class in every sense. The welcome was friendly, including a cup of tea and lovely cake on arrival. The room was clean and spacious; the breakfast was excellent.
What really made it special is that when our car broke down, Mike, the proprietor, came to where we were stranded, ferried my wife to the toilet, dropped us at our restaurant then picked us up after the meal, and even offered to take us back to our car the next day - although a lovely couple from Staffordshire, also staying there, dropped us off instead.
Highly, highly recommended.

Lovely B+B
Lovely old farmhouse, and host went the extra mile by sorting out a last minute taxi to a recommended pub. Also had a late(ish) breakfast which some people don't offer but was appreciated. Thank you

Great stay at Hillview
One of the friendliest and welcoming B&B's we have ever stayed at. A rural Location beautiful views and so very quiet.

Lovely stay
Really this is B and B accommodation as it should be.
Beautiful building, spotless well appointed rooms, grand breakfast to set you up for the day and an true gentlemen of an owner who makes you feel more like visiting friends than paying guests.
A little out of the way which makes for a peaceful stay,( I think even the cows had been told to not moo too loud), yet within easy reach of all the tourist attractions of the area.
This one gets a big 9/10 from me, not getting 10/10 because there must be something to knock but I'm damned if I can find it.

hill view is amazing
fabulous place made to feel so welcome by mike the owner ,who offered us tea and cake on arrival room beautiful breakfast delicious he even gave us a loft to collect our car cannot recommend this place enough mike keeps it so well a proper family home=

Lovely Place to Stay - also very quiet
Met with a pot of tea and a slice of cake on arrival!
Lovely place to stay in the middle of the countryside, no noise at all to disturb your sleep, and perfectly located for day trips to Cheddar Gorge and the surrounding area, or just a trip to the nearby eateries :-)
The food was all delicious and perfectly cooked - although a little more of it wouldn't have gone amiss at breakfast time!

Booked from New Zealand. Good quality accomodation in a quiet location.

beutifully situated cheddar farmhouse
Everything about this farmhouse was superb. Mick welcomed us in to his lovely farmhouse and 10minutes later we were having chocolate cake and tea.. Splendid furnished bedroom and large ensuite with careful attention to small details.Mick was helpful with giving us direction to Cheddar Gorge and where to get an evening meal.Breakfast was excellent with plenty of everything.Pity we only stayed one night.Would definately stay here again if in the area.and recommend to our friends.

very relaxing location
Really nice setting for a country escape. Easy reach of cheddar and wells. Very hospitable host who offered tea and cake on arrival, and great advice of a quality Greek restaurant/pub nearby

Friendly, comfortable and clean. Excellent breakfast. Lovely location!
Friendly and warm welcome. Very clean and comfortable rooms. Excellent breakfast. Lovely location. A thoroughly enjoyable stay.

Hillview B&B
Very friendly and clean. Good breakfast.

A beautiful country break
Thamk you for an enjoyable stay in the English countryside.
The road to Ashton was a windy lane, typical of the British countryside, where we immediately knew we would have a relaxing stay - here I would recommend either using a satnav or a route planner website to make sure of the correct turns but you soon get to know the local landmarks.
We turned up later than expected, and the owner waited for us to arrive before going out himself. He showed us to our room and chatted to us about what we wanted for breakfast as if he ws in no hurry to leave. We were then left alone to settle in which we found very pleasing as in some places welcomes are very overwhelming.
The room was very clean and a good size, however the bathroom was quite compact but again very clean and contained all you would expect. The room overlooked the farm, where we had a hill side view, and found the room peaceful and clutter free. In the morning we were treated to a large breakfast with a choice of cereals, fruit, juices, and a cooked course. Being vegetarian the choice was better than at many places we have stayed. My partner eats meat and found both the sausages and bacon cooked well. It kept us both going until the afternoon, and we felt that Hill view was very good value for money.
I would recommend a stay for a quiet retreat, or a stop off as we did, on the way to Cornwall.

very nice place to stay . very clean , and a great breakfast .
the cup of tea and cake when we arrived was very welcome . the room was lovely and comfortable and clean . had everything you could want . the breakfast was very good .
will definately be back to stay there

Hillview Farm B&B
A great place to stay! My arrangements changed part-way through my journey, so I was forced to reschedule my arrival time. None of this was a problem to Mike though, who even phoned me en-route to give live directions. To top it all off we were even given a glass of wine on arrival as by then the pubs were all closed and I really fancied a nightcap!
The accomodation is really clean and of a high standard. I only stayed one night as I was visiting family nearby but the area is truly lovely. Our room had all the usual facilities, excellent bed and bathroom. Cracking cooked breakfast the following morning, so all in all a great stay.
Really can't think of any negatives to tell you about, the location itself seemed a bit remote so i'm unsure what is in walking distance (pubs, restaurants etc) however this didn't concern us at all due to the nature of our stay.
Highly recommended, I can honestly say you can stay here with confidence.

The owner Mike made us very welcome, offering us tea as soon as we arrived. We were only there for one night as we were on our way to visit relatives but another time when we are in the area we would stay longer, We would recommend this wholeheartedly. A great place to stay and lots of things to visit in the area.

Hillview Retreat
I had been tempted by Farmhouse accommodation whenever looking for somewhere to stay whilst exploring the UK before, but something inside was stopping me. Maybe at the time I needed to not be so far away from what I was used to everyday. But after staying at Hillview I knew I was ready. This Farmhouse B&B was a delight of lovely countryside surroundings, a spotlessly clean room, a very nice host who made us feel very relaxed and at home, and a top drawer traditional English Breakfast. I would definately recommend it for a short stay, as it is a very pleasant drive to Cheddar Gorge (great little Gem to visit) and numerous villages that have fine Pubs with Excellent Food. A Special mention must go to our Bed as it was ultra comfortable. Best i've ever slept away from home on, and, we did sleep well. I can really only agree what many others have already said on this site that is so attractive about Hillview farm. Go on. Give it a go. you won't regret it!

Amazing
Stayed here for one night on the way to Glastonbury festival. Lovely people, nice and quiet surroundings, lovely and clean inside. We were offered a cup of tea and a slice of cake as soon as we arrived and breakfast was made earlier for us so we could head off to the festival early.
Cannot recommend this place enough, will definitely stay again.

Perfect get away
Hi, this is one the best B&B's we have stopped in everyone was very friendly, you get a nice cup off tea or coffee with a piece of cake on arrival. The breakfast is very good and Mike was an excelent host. I would recomend this to anyone looking for a good place to stay. It is well situated for the exploring the area (Chedder gorge, Wookey caves,Bristol & Bath are just a short drive away.

Lovely place to stay
Home made cake and a cup of tea on arrival: a very large family room with a huge bathroom; a full English breakfast freshly prepared in the morning -- this is a perfect place to stay offering clean accommodation in a beautiful, atmospheric farmhouse. Thank you Mike.

Hillview Farm - homely and comfortable.
Excellent value for money, a very warm welcome made us feel immediately at home. Lovely location and ideal stop over for travelling to cornwall from Liverpool.

Will stay longer next time!
Upon arrival we were warmly welcomed by Mike, the owner, and offered a cup of tea and a slice of fruit cake. The room was very spacious and clean. The breakfast was delicious. Very friendly atmosphere in a very peaceful setting, we wish we had stayed longer. The owner recommended a pub for dinner which was great. Great location, close to many places of interest (Cheddar caves, Wells, Glastonbury, Bath, etc).

Excellent Accommodation
Warm welcome with tea and cake. Mike was a great host, he very kindly booked us an excellent restaurant for our first night.
Would strongly reccomend this accomodation. Rooms and food were excellent, very clean and tidy. Excellent Hospitality, we will certainly be returning!!. Well done Mike.

Quiet location
A warm welcome on arrival. Immediately treated to tea/coffee. Very comfortable room. Cooked breakfast superb. Well recommended !!

Excellent place to stay
We all enjoyed our stay here. Friendly, great location, comfortable and clean. We were all well looked after.

Weekend escape
Last minute escape and read the previous reviews, which had 100 % positive feed back and this made us to go ahead with Mike's acomodation. The result? Very pleasant indeed. Hillview farm is very well maintained and kept very neat & tidy. The bathroom was spacious and very comfortable to use. The bed linen was made of silk, I believe and really snuggly. Our 4 year old enjoyed sleeping in it on her own. The breakfast was extremely good. We had a choice of melon or grapefruit to start with (kiwi on top), then English or continental style breakfast. A bonus, was that we were invited to see a newborn calf (born the night before), which made our daughter's day. Mike told us how he developed the farm and B&B with Margaret after purchasing the run down property and how the farm house was done up, which all adds to the character of the place and Mike's warm welcoming character. And also his recomended pub "The Lamb Inn" was excellent! The landlord is extremely friendly and the pub has a really friendly atmosphere. Definetly recommend it.

Well done Mike!
Friendly welcome (with cake!) and excellent breakfast. Nicely decorated room and bathroom. We had a lovely stay and rank this B&B in our top three.

The Best You Can Get
Absolutely superb!! Would strongly reccomend this accomodation. Rooms are excellent, Food is Excellent Hospitality is Excellent....You Cant get Better, we will certainly be returning.

We received a very warm welcome. We arrived in the evening & hadn't eaten. Mike recommended some local pubs & restaurants to us and booked a table for us. Farmhouse was lovely. Absolutely spotless. The room was very nice. Lovely bathroom. Would definitely recommend & hope to return in the warmer weather to make the most of the lovely garden.

Stayed 2 nights March 2011. Very friendly and welcoming with tea and cake on arrival and a chat with Mike. Lovely hearty breakfasts. Would definitely recommend a visit.
