Beautiful Barn in rural Somerset, close to the coast, with stunning views

During lockdown we have renovated and updated our guest house. We are excited to welcome you to our idyllic rural retreat, far away from the hustle, bustle and stresses of everyday life. The top floor of the Barn has been lovingly converted with a big bedroom, bathroom, kitchen and large sitting room. The Barn is incredibly light and airy with beautiful views throughout that make you feel as though you are among the trees. It truly is the perfect country escape.

The Barn has a large and wild garden that is totally private, with outdoor furniture; perfect for alfresco dinning. We have two dogs and a cat, they are all very friendly. You are welcome to bring your friendly pets. (The barn has a double room with a double bed but is very spacious so there is plenty of room for a travel cot. The large sitting room has a sofa bed too.)

The Barn is very close to a number of really special properties and national trust houses (Forde Abbey, Montecute, Barrington, etc). We are a 35 minute drive from the stunning Jurassic Coastline. Depending on restrictions there are many award winning restaurants and pubs a short distance away. We are happy to let you know more about any activities that you may be interested in.

We are a family of five and live in a separate house in the grounds, the Barn is self contained and not overlooked by us. We are happy to help you with anything to ensure that you have the happiest stay, just let us know!

From the Barn there are lots of walks if you wish to explore the local countryside and we are happy to give you directions to our favourite countryside spots!
We love the Barn and hope you will fall in love with it too and will do everything we can to ensure that you have a happy trip in the South West.

Beautiful rural location
Was a lovely quaint stable/barn conversion. Equipped with everything we needed.The log fire and electric blanket were very welcomed. Well heated. Very peaceful location. Our host Heather made us very welcome and on hand if we needed anything. Would definitely recommend this stay. Julie Warren

R & R aplenty.
Really relaxing few days. Host very welcoming but was discreet during our stay. Property was clean if a little ‘tired’ . Property well equipped on the whole. Glorious location in Chaffcombe and not Cricket Malherbie as advertised! Only -ve issue we had was with Vrbo’s app being unable to handle a change to our length stay. Fortunately our host was on hand t sort it. Would definitely return.

Idyllic hideaway surrounded by fields and fresh air with lots of outside space for our dog to run around. The Stable Loft has been tastefully furnished with interesting features. We had gorgeous weather so didn't need to use the log burner. We didn't meet Heather and Angus but they left all the information we needed and used many if their recommendations on where to go and where to eat. We also met Maple and Pip who were super friendly. We will definitely be back. Thank you.

We were very comfortable in a very clean, quiet and thoughtfully organised property with friendly, helpful owners. Our privacy was totally respected. We would book again if we were down that way.

It's in a lovely rural setting with loads of walks from the doorstep - all in all a great place for a country getaway! Would love to return sometime soon!
