Cosy Somerset cottage, open fire, country walks, pet friendly.

The house offers superior accommodation, from the spacious master bedroom, to the king sized room, and a slightly smaller double room for smaller members of the family.

Large living room with wood fore, kitchen and family rooms all open onto the garden.

Set at the end of a private drive in the heart of the Somerset Mendips, this family farm house is the perfect rural retreat allowing you to escape from the modern hustle & bustle. With a massive family kitchen, and a large airy space with huge family dining table, Large dual aspect living room that opens onto a mature private garden with its mill stream. It is the perfect place to socialise, entertain and dine.

You can enjoy indoor or outdoor cooking, reading, yoga in the large two story atrium, knitting on a wonderful sofa, chilling in the garden, cozying up in front of the log fire or going on a beautiful adventure into the heart of Avalon.

Close proximity to Castle Cary, Somerton, Street, Glastonbury (including Pilton & the festival site) Shepton Mallet and Bruton being a short drive away. Bath, Bristol, Stone Henge are less than an hour away.

Set in the heart of the Somerset countryside and you have access to country walks, wild swimming, cosy pubs, independent food and drink suppliers, ancient, historical, quirky towns and markets.

Parts of the farm are quite old - the Mill & its stream are in the Doomsday book, there are old local stories that the flour for King Alfred's burnt cakes was milled in our Mill around 850AD.

Large collection of books and tabletop games, outdoor games available on request.

Very pet friendly.

Excellent Country Getaway
We had a lovely few days staying at the cottage which was very convenient for local sight seeing. The cottage was clean and had everything we needed for our stay. The beds were comfortable and lovely large rooms to spend time relaxing as well as enjoying local walks. Would recommend to everyone.

An excellent accommodation for my family requirements. 4 adults and 2 children. Good sized bedrooms, excellent kitchen and living area. Generally well equipped, some cleaning cloths required would be our only thought. Otherwise, excellent hosts who were available if required, and though living close where very descreet. The property was easy to find given the GPS coordinates. Communication with the hosts was excellent, and they were very helpful in all arrangements. There was good instructions on how to use and find local amenities. A good supply of books and games were available and some Wellington Boots as it was quite wet and muddy at times. Hot water was always available and both shower and bath options were available. If you are in this lovely area to explore, this is a superb property to do it from.

Beautiful property
Just back from a short stay in this property. It has loads of quirk and charm. Host was easy to communicate with and friendly. A couple things to point out for future visitors that we weren't aware of. There is a large dip in the farm track on way to property, so avoid bringing any 'low' cars as you'll get stuck. Also one of the bathrooms (with the bath) is an ensuite to a bedroom. Lovely stay and would definitely recommend.
