Frequently asked questions
Booking, dog policies and how this directory works.
How do I book a Somerset cottage?
Choose a property and use its booking link. It opens the property on the provider named on the page (Sykes Cottages and HolidayCottages.co.uk). Select your dates there to see the current price, availability and booking terms.
Can I bring my dog?
Use the dog-friendly filter to find properties that accept dogs. Each property page shows the stated dog limit where available. Check any charges and restrictions with the provider before booking.
Does the site cover Bath and the Somerset side of Exmoor?
Yes. Somerset Holidays covers Somerset, Bath and North East Somerset, and North Somerset, including the Somerset part of Exmoor. A property appears here only when it sits inside that boundary, so homes just over the border in Devon, Dorset, Wiltshire or Gloucestershire are not listed.
Do you take payments or manage the booking?
No. Somerset Holidays helps you browse accommodation. The provider you book with (Sykes Cottages and HolidayCottages.co.uk) handles the reservation, payment and questions about an existing booking.
