Lovely property in the heart of Somerset

Brought to you by 'Stay Wells and Somerset', Bowlish Grange is a beautiful house of Jacobean origins, our guest cottage is available on a self catering basis. We are close to art and culture, wonderful countryside, pubs and restaurants. Visitors will love the historical setting and the location. We are close to Glastonbury, Wells and the Bath and West Showground. The cottage is perfect for couples, families and business groups.
We offer four double bedrooms. There are two private bathrooms each with shower and bath facilities. There is a large reception room with lovely parquet flooring, corner sofa and widescreen 4K UHD smart television with NetFlix and other on-demand players. There is a beautiful and large kitchen with granite tops and inbuilt appliances (built in 2020) which is conveniently positioned between the indoor and outdoor dining areas. The private courtyard also offers a large BBQ and a dining area for up to 10 people. Additionally there is also a new spacious decking area which is perfect for evening drinks in the sun. Ultra fast 'fibre to the premises' broadband is provided.
Parking
If anyone has a need to park in front of the house then that is absolutely fine (just let us know) and anyone can also pull in for loading and unloading. Otherwise it would be appreciated if you can park just outside the gate on the lane so that the front of the house does not get congested with cars which results in a prettier and more spacious environment for everyone.
The cottage is an annex of the main house with it's own front door and kitchen. It is entirely self-contained.
There will usually be someone around to help you throughout your stay and give you tips on the highlights of the local area including the beautiful Mendip Hills and the historic cities and towns of Bath, Wells and Glastonbury.
Bowlish is a beautiful hamlet a short walk from the historic town of Shepton Mallet. From our Grade 2 listed Jacobean home you can go for long walks through the Mendip countryside.
Although we'd recommend guests to bring a car there are also direct buses to Bath, Wells and the surrounding area from a bus stop just down our lane.

Comfortable cottage with ace interiors I’m a Beautiful garden setting
Extended family with small children celebrating a big birthday - super easy to check in - great hosts - cottage interiors very thoughtfully designed with nice touches - it’s part of an old building so there are some steep stairs and an old damp wall, but we thought it was really characterful - the use of the garden really made it for us as the kids loved running around and the adults loved having a sunny spot to relax in - comfy beds and good value overall We would love to stay again if we were in the neighbourhood.

Great house, great hosts
We were a large family group of nine adults staying the weekend for a wedding nearby. The cottage accommodated us easily and comfortably. It’s well equipped and very nicely decorated and furnished - one of those places you wish was your own house! It was very clean and we had everything we needed when we arrived. George and Hannah were excellent hosts - quick and easy to communicate with, and helpful and flexible when we were there. All in all highly recommended for a peaceful stay in a lovely part of the country.

Amazing property with such wonderful hosts who couldn't have done more for us. The house is absolutely beautiful, cosy and well equipped. A real home away from home- wish we could have stayed longer!

Lovely place
Lovely property. Although garden shared with owners property feels nice and private. Kitchen beautiful with all utensils and cooking equipment needed. Bathrooms okay. Water pressure low but nice and warm. Basic but clean and tidy. Bedrooms cosy and welcoming. A couple of the mattress quite dipped in the middle but comfortable. Living space warm and comfortable. 8 small seats in living room. Dining table only has 6 seats but able to bring one in from garden. We were a party of 6 adults and one child. House was good size. Parking in road outside. 3 cars between us, enough space but narrow road. Hosts lovely and welcoming. Responded quickly to any messages. Overall a lovely weekend, thank you
