9.8 out of 10, Exceptional, (56 reviews)
"An elegantly appointed fairly formal country house in a beautiful rural setting, not far from a tiny small village. The rooms are comfortable and the hosts provide a great breakfast. Access to and from the property from the A roads was interesting to say the least. Single lane “roads” for the 2 miles either side of the property require a fair degree of both caution and concentration. Some parts will barely allow a car to pass. That said, it is worth the trip. Just do it slowly!"

Frequently asked questions

What is the best area to stay in Kilve?
The best area to stay in Kilve is directly within the village itself, particularly around the Kilve Beach and the surrounding rural lanes.

Kilve village is a small, quiet community known for its stunning Jurassic coastline and the Quantock Hills, an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty. The main activities revolve around the beach, famous for its fossils, and the walking trails that crisscross the hills. You'll find a few local amenities, including a pub and a tea room, but it's primarily a place for quiet enjoyment of nature.

For families, staying near Kilve Beach offers easy access to fossil hunting, rock pooling, and exploring the shoreline. The beach is a wonderful place for children to discover natural history. Many properties in this area provide ample space and are conveniently located for day trips to nearby attractions like Tropiquaria Wildlife Park or the West Somerset Railway.

Couples looking for a peaceful retreat will appreciate the secluded accommodations located in the lanes just outside the main village.
When is the best time to go to Kilve?
The best time to go to Kilve is generally during the late spring, summer, and early autumn months, from May to September, when the weather is at its most pleasant for outdoor activities.

During these months, you'll find warmer temperatures and less rainfall, making it ideal for exploring the Jurassic Coast, particularly for fossil hunting on Kilve Beach. The longer daylight hours also allow for more time to enjoy walks along the Quantock Hills, which offer stunning views of the Bristol Channel.

For those looking to enjoy the natural beauty and outdoor pursuits without the peak summer crowds, May, June, and September are particularly good choices. The weather is still generally mild and agreeable, and you might find accommodation and local attractions slightly less busy, offering a more relaxed experience.

However, if your primary interest is fossil hunting, it's worth noting that the best times for this activity are often after high tides or storms, which expose new sections of the cliffs and reveal fresh finds.
