Fantastic Country House with a hot tub + splash pool + games in private grounds.

Relax in the hot tub or cool off in the splash pool. Fabulous for a family or friends break. Country walks from the door. 2 minutes to cosy country pub. Outside log burner. Lovely South facing 1/3 of an acre gardens with fantastic views over the surrounding countryside of rolling hills and farms. Garden games available. Bring your family or a group of friends for a spring or summer break and soak away your aches and worries in the hot tub on the terrace right outside your back door.
Best suited to sleep 8 but can be configured to take 2 extra children, on request. 3 king size beds and and a lovely twin room. Cook on the gas BBQ and Dine in style in the fabulous Alfresco dining room. Stone steps lead up into the large, secluded garden where lawn bowls or croquet await you. Play badminton or volley ball then cool off in the splash pool or just chill on the hammock style sunbeds, the choice is yours.

Enjoy a great luxury spacious barn style holiday home set in a country village just 2 minutes’ walk to the traditional pub with a skittles alley. Why not spend your evening sitting round the outside logburner toasting marshmellows, barbequing or relaxing in the warm bubbles of the hot tub even when its cold outside.

Country walks and cycling right from the door. Try the local 3 peaks walking challenge. Ordinance Survey Maps are waiting for you plus some other fun walks for all the family. Close to Wookey Hole, Cheddar Gorge Glastonbury. Or if you fancy shopping Clarkes designer village is just down the road. Longleat safari park or the coast are under an hour away.

The house itself is newly refurbished with fresh colours and luxury finishes. Converted from a stone workshop and wood store, it retains its old-world character with modern flair. Bright and airy rooms and open plan entertaining areas makes this the place to unwind with friends or family. The downstairs is a versatile open plan design with sky TV and WiFi. Four lovely bedrooms sleeping 8 are ready for your stay. The fully fitted kitchen has a dishwasher and washing machine, toaster and microwave to make your stay easier. Induction hob and oven and a integrated fridge freezer.

A spacious twin and a large king upstairs plus boutique style rooms with exposed walls, ceiling fans and USB plugs downstairs. One is a through room. Feather pillows, cosy duvets and throws help with a great night’s sleep. Use either of the two luxury bathrooms, one with a walk-in rain forest shower and the other with a black Victorian roll top bath.

Lots to do without leaving the property in your own large private garden. Enjoy long evenings outside with the BBQ and firepit for alfresco cooking, large patio with plenty of outside seating.

In the garden play croquet, table tennis, lawn bowls, badminton or take a dip in the 12ft splash pool. Relax in the large hammock style sun beds and enjoy the views over the nearby farms and stunning countryside. Fantastic views and lovely flowers in the gardens.

Close to Wells, Glastonbury, Wookey Hole and Cheddar Gorge or for a spot of shopping Clarkes designer outlet is 3 miles away. Millfield School is just up the road so a great place for half term breaks.

A fantastic central location with so much to see and do. Cycle routes right from the doorstep and fishing or golf close by. Great village location activities such as the Fleet Air Museum, escape rooms at Somerton, and Hayes Motor Museum, with go-karting, are only 10 minutes’ drive away.

Less than an hour to the coast if you fancy a day at the seaside or an Hour to Exeter if you want a challenge at GoApe or Sedgeway tour at Haldon Forest. Or if its Country Gardens and Houses that you prefer there are about 3 locations to visit within 20 minutes’ drive.
Full refunds if travel restrictions for lockdown continue. Superb hot tub and safe off-road parking in the private drive right outside the front door.

What a great cottage !
We had a lovely family time during Christmas , enjoyed well equipped house .Children loved the garden. Hot tub is an absolute luxury to the cottage. Tracey went above and beyond in preparing the treasure hunt for children. Christmas decorations were lovely. BBQ is a great addition to the cottage. Next door pub for a pint of beer with friendly locals. Great location for walking. Short driving distance to Glastonbury, close to shops and we loved Clarks Village , ice skating and a great Christmas atmosphere. We will definitely be back. Thank you Tracy and all the best !

Conveniently located to enjoy countryside and popular attractions
Thanks to the details provided by Tracy well ahead of our arrival, the overall check-in process was smooth. The accommodation was comfortable for our group with 5 adults and 2 kids and the garden was equipped with enough stuff to keep the kids occupied while at home. The accommodation was convenient for few walks along the countryside and quite a few different attractions were a short drive from here. The hot tub as always makes a ton of difference especially on cold, crisp starry nights and a great way to relax after a tiring day. Overall, everyone in the group had a great time and would like to thank the hosts for making our stay a pleasant and enjoyable one.

Ladies trip
Had a relaxing weekend with unseasonably good weather. Made use of all the garden games, hot tub, pool and loungers then had a cosy evening by the log fire toasting marshmallows.

Birthday Weekend
For my 40th birthday we wanted a chilled weekend away to relax shop and enjoy some down time. This was an absolute gem, the hosts couldn’t have been more lovely, little touches such as home made jam and scones on arrival were fantastic. Wood was stocked for the fire pit and the host even turned up with balloons and face packs for the whole group when she realised it was a birthday. The hot tub was glorious, the garden space and absolute delight and the pool was a perfect extra touch. The outside dining area that was shaded was a true gem. The mattresses were dreamy and situation 7 minutes drive from Clark’s shopping village was also an added bonus. We couldn’t have asked for anything better. An absolute delight we will most certainly be staying again.

Excellent accommodation, five star !
Wonderful property and location in Somerset. We were greeted with a lovely food hamper which also included a delicious cream tea. We were also provided with many extras which is an added bonus. The property was spotlessly clean and the facilities were exactly as advertised. Tracy, the host, was welcoming and made sure we had everything we needed (including recommendations of places to visit). A very relaxing break in a superb cottage, we will definitely be back.

Fantastic countryside retreat
We loved staying at this cute cottage, which is set in a gorgeous and idyllic location. From the lawn games to the cool outdoor dining area complete with a hot tub (perfect for soaking your cares away), it’s the perfect escape. My toddlers loved roaming around on the expansive lawn and my husband and I enjoyed a game of badminton, which was fun! Tracey is a fab host and really went out of her way to ensure that we had a great weekend.
