Overnight stay with our Grandson who is 4. Lively family room in the attic with its own bathroom. Very low ceilings throughout so tall people beware! Lovely warm welcome, comfortable beds, and delicious breakfast. Well worth staying here if visiting Chard.

Amazing hosts
It was a flying visit for us but in the short time we were there we were made to feel incredibly welcome.
The owners are just the sweetest couple - on their actions alone we would most definitely stay again!
The room was very comfortable and breakfast was delicious.

Superb
Whether it’s a staging post on a longer journey or a base to explore, Ammonite Lodge is perfect. The rooms are spotless , comfortable and contains great products and facilities. The owners are incredibly welcoming- running the house seems as much a matter of love as well as business. We cannot fault the place and look forward to our next stay!
