Reviewer Comments:
Given that Berrima was declared NSW's best tourist destination for its population, its not surpirse that the twon was inundated with people on the long weekend. The beauty of Somerset was that it represented the Georgian architecture of the village beautifully. Beautifully restored and wonderfully warm with the two fires, it was also was within easy walking distance of the entire village. Perfect stay for our family of grandparents, two preganant mums and a small baby. It's a house to retire to.
We all loved beautiful Somerset. A perfect family weekend away. A warm, homely, immaculate home. Everything well equipped. The fireplaces were very inviting. We arrived on a bitter cold afternoon to a cosy, welcoming warm home.We all can’t wait to come back. Would love it to be an annual event for our family. Thank you
Spent a lovely weekend in beautiful historic Berrima. This four bedroom house is gorgeous-period features with modern comforts. Each bedroom opens onto the verandah overlooking established gardens (even comes with a resident bunny). At night we enjoyed a wine by the log fire. And only a short easy walk to the shops and histrionic pub. Recommended property.

The house was lovely and very comfortable. It’s in a great location, close to Berrima. We stayed for our sons wedding at Bendooley which was a 5 minute drive away. Highly recommend Somerset
What a place, we had a delightful stay in this wonderful manor. A lovely modern place with everything you could need for an enjoyable stay in the country. Definitely top of our list to revisit next time we're in Berrima or Bowral - cannot recommend highly enough :)
We stayed here for our daughter’s wedding at Bendooley Estate. Lovely house in perfect location. Spotlessly clean, & recently renovated inside. Everyone was impressed.
Gorgeous house and lovely yard ! Had a perfect stay in the heart of Berrima.

My family and I had seven glorious nights in Berrima at the Summerset Lodge. The house was very tastefully appointed, the grounds were lovely, the birdlife something to behold and the entire experience was something we would look forward to repeating.

The weekend was great. The house was spectacular with plenty of space indoors and out to enjoy the weather or simply stay in. Great location being walking distance to everything. As it worked out, Berrima had everything we needed i.e. cafes, pub, great shopping and walking tracks. Will definitely come back for a nice easy weekend.
The property was just perfect in a very quaint, authentic Australian village.Everything about the property was perfect ,especially the beds !.We were there for my sons wedding at Bendooley Estate which was just around the corner and we felt so at home .In fact, we wished it were our home ! Thankyou to the owners for making it so warm and inviting ! We will come again !
