Liked: We stayed at Happy on the Hill several times before and every time we would like to come back for another stay - it never disappoints. The location is peaceful, the wagon is very comfortable and the views from the wagon are beautiful.

Gabriel's Wagon cabin
Liked: What a fantastic location. Me and my wife spent the Easter Weekend here with our dog, to explore the local area. It was a great hub for visiting Burton, Shepton Mallet where we did a tour of the prison, and Stourhead estate. The wagon was incredible cozy. Wood burning stove already lit for when we arrived, along with a surprise cake which was delicious. Neil & Susan were very attentive hosts, and made sure we had everything we needed to enjoy our stay (pup included who got her own complimentary treats on arrival!) Outside fire pit on a clear sky, watching the stars, and relaxing on the comfy bed looking out through the big window into the field beyond, listening to the birdsong were definite highlights. Would definitely come back. Highly recommend!

From the manager: Dear Jo
I hope I’m responding in the right place to say thanks so much for such a lovely kind and positive review. For Neil and I it matters so much you’ve had a happy and relaxing time and discovered the peace and joys of Happy on the Hill. Thanks so much for finding us and expressing your pleasure in your stay. We really look forward to your return as it has been really lovely to have you both stay and your lovely dog.
Very best wishes, Susan & Neil
