No trip to Somerset is complete without a visit to Cheddar Gorge, and from this home, you can be there in less than ten minutes. Perfect for families who love the great outdoors, it's a modern eco lodge on a small, rural park development. Spacious and well laid-out, it's been designed to make life as easy as possible – leaving you nothing to do but sit back and enjoy your break. A wheelchair-friendly ramp leads up to the entrance and the wraparound deck, where you can not only eat outside and relax on the sun loungers, you can also spend some quality time in your private hot tub to the rear. Inside, it's bright and open, with comfortable furnishings and a home from home feel. We love the kitchen and dining area, opening to the deck and fully equipped with everything you'll need to cook up family meals at home. Stroll through the communal gardens and the orchard, or explore further afield – the Mendips Way hiking trail passes close by and Wells is just a twenty-minute drive. 

Dwell on the Deck

Although it's been a couple of centuries since the Grade-II listed Georgian building that this apartment sits within was built, the contemporary interior design still retains an air of timeless sophistication that we feel would please the original architects if they were able to see it.

The sleek kitchen surfaces and muted colour palette are instantly soothing and work to emphasise the bountiful amount of natural light that streams in through the tall windows on the far side of the space — which also look out to a beautiful view of the rooftops of Bath. There's a discernible mid-century inspiration when it comes to the furnishings and the sleek bathroom is pretty stylish, too.

When you want to see more of this picturesque city, the centre is a ten-minute walk and offers spas, Regency buildings and an interesting selection of museums. Royal Victoria Park takes the same amount of time to reach on foot.



Portland Stone

A family retreat in Somerset should be all about bringing everyone together, and with a cosy cottage like this, reconnecting is easy. Set in the middle of fourteen acres of woodlands with a small orchard on-site, walking in any direction will take you on an adventure – after all, the Mendip Hills is home to lots of wildlife and gorgeous picnic spots, while the village of Cheddar and its famous gorge are just a five-minute drive away. Inside, there's a cosy living space, a fully-stocked kitchen and two sumptuous bedrooms. This home is not lacking mod-cons, either – there's a DVD player, a Bose Bluetooth speaker and sleek rain showers in the en-suite bathrooms. But we expect you'll be spending as much time outdoors as indoors, especially since the wrap-around deck is the best place to soak up the views. Fire up the built-in barbecue with the fare you picked up at the nearby farmer's market and enjoy an alfresco feast in the fresh air. When the sun goes down, nothing beats bubbling in the hot tub with a glass of fizz under the stars. When the air turns chilly, sprawl out on the squishy sofas for a family movie night, popcorn and a cup of hot chocolate in hand.

Starry Fields

Tucked away on a working farm in the Somerset countryside, this converted stable is all charm and comfort. Step inside to find rustic touches warmed by underfloor heating and a crackling woodburner, with a sociable kitchen-diner and a cosy lounge made for slow mornings and restful evenings. Two king-size bedrooms offer peaceful retreats, one with a sleek en-suite, while the garden patio is perfect for morning coffee or sundowners after a day out. From Cheddar Gorge to Brean Beach, Somerset’s natural wonders are within easy reach. Though you may find the biggest joy is simply staying put.

Somerset Cider

Escaping into the English countryside for a weekend (or two) is exactly the sort of thing Trailblazer Cottage was made for. This is a beautifully intimate retreat for two, perfect for those who love the idea of taking short trips to the neighbouring towns and sampling the farmers' markets in and around Cheddar — but it's also perfect for those who just want to relax. Staying here might make you change your adventurous plans and simply lounge on the decked terrace with a good book and a glass of nice wine, contemplating whether three sessions in the hot tub per day is just a little too much. It isn't. With a variety of fresh seasonal produce on offer in the area, every meal can be special and you've got a modern metro-tiled kitchen to try them all out. When the weather is less than Mediterranean, stay indoors and test the swanky pedestal bathtub for a spa-like experience and enjoy a movie night on the cosy sofa. When the weather permits, you can admire the sunset and sunrise from every room in the house as well. Light pours in through the French doors, extending the living space out to the great outdoors. Speaking of, go hiking along the sublime Cheddar Gorge, only a six-minute drive from home. It's well worth a trip. 

Trailblazer Cottage

Step back in time with a stay at this magnificent Grade II* listed Elizabethan manor house. And while there’s an abundance of charm and character, you’ll also find plenty of contemporary comforts to bring luxurious ease to your country escape. From the grand dining hall and billiard room to the elegant drawing room and cosy bedrooms, every detail has been considered to inspire optimum relaxation. It’s also the perfect venue for special events, weddings and intimate gatherings with catering and organised experiences available on request. Outside, explore ancient woodlands, historic buildings and an organic farm. It’s also just a short drive to the majestic Quantock Hills and less than two hours from London. 

Place of Beauty

The Mendip Hills is one of only forty-six regions across the country with the title 'Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty'. Surrounding yourself with the best that nature has to offer, this eco-cottage is a fantastic retreat for hikers and bird-watchers, but also luxury-seekers.

Just a twenty-minute drive from the town of Glastonbury, this wooden lodge is so much more than a base from which you can explore the fields. It's a tiny spa resort that could convince you to spend more time relaxing at home than you planned. Kick off your hiking boots and head to your private, wrap-around terrace. Bask in the southern sunshine with a glass of fine English sparkling wine in hand. And the bubbles continue in another sense – top up your glass and take a dip in the outdoor hot tub.

While this might be far from the rustic escape you imagined, you can still head inside to cook up a wholesome meal, albeit in the glossy, modern kitchen. Dig out a classic recipe for a Sunday roast and gather round on bright orange chairs in the dining space. Or of course, you might want to dine alfresco under the warm palette of an English sunset.

Mendip Hillside

This gorgeous converted barn allows you to connect with nature. Perfect for hosting no matter the weather, enjoy a garden party on the lawn or get festive indoors with a roaring fire. The rustic kitchen and ample dining space are perfect for those who love to cook with love for their family. The Wendy house, tire swing, and games room provide endless entertainment for children who love to play. 

Wooden beams adorn the ceilings, adding to the farm life vibes. Look out of the window to spot any free–roaming ducks from the surrounding one–hundred acres of land, who have come to say hello. You may also hear the clucks of the neighbouring chickens.

Guests can enjoy the sprawling countryside with nature walks and wildlife photography. Feeling adventurous? Pop down to The Bear Trail, an obstacle course packed full of challenges that will leave you craving a sit down at the end of the day. Luckily for you, this home provides guests with plenty of seating areas – inside and out.

Wood & Stone

Part Victorian farmhouse, part modern pad, this rural home is filled with light and character. The recently-renovated manor sits on a verdant plot in the bucolic Somerset countryside, boasting far-reaching views and access to plenty of scenic routes. If you're the kind of walker who enjoys a post-stroll pint, you'll be pleased to hear the village pub is just a fifteen-minute walk away.

This homely property will welcome you with open arms, inviting you to sink into the plush Chesterfield sofas or unwind with a soak in the free-standing bathtub within minutes of arriving. When you're settled, gather the family for a meal on the fairy-lit terrace and take in the natural vista ahead. If it's too cool for alfresco dining, the contemporary kitchen-diner is the next best thing, letting the outside in through expansive sliding glass doors.

There's no shortage of worthwhile sights in your immediate vicinity, from the manicured gardens at The Newt to the Swiss art gallery in the town centre. Thirty minutes down the road, the historic hamlet of Wells is home to an impressive cathedral and a selection of quintessentially English eateries.

Montague Manor

Set against a backdrop of rolling Somerset countryside, this spacious farmhouse is made for memorable gatherings. Inside, you’ll find warm, characterful interiors, multiple lounges to spread out in, and a generous dining space for long, laughter-filled meals. The country kitchen is a cook’s dream, while bedrooms spread across the main house and annexe offer privacy and comfort in equal measure. Come evening, head out to the garden for a soak in the hot tub, a movie on the outdoor TV, or just a glass of something sparkling under the stars. Whether you're here for a celebration or simply to reconnect, this home makes it easy to slow down and savour the moment.

Somerset Haven

Quietly removed from the bustle and crowds of Burnham-on-Sea's centre in a residential area, the location of this pet-friendly home is spot-on. Granted, the interiors may feel dated for some, and the garden is pocket-sized, but it's all spotlessly clean and would perfectly suit a bucket-and-spade family holiday. With parking right outside on a private driveway, hopping in the car to explore the coast is a cinch. Get off to a flying start along the seven miles of golden sands close by. Or up the ante with a day at Weston-super-Mare's Grand Pier and Sealife Centre – just a short drive away.

Aquamarine Orchid

Nestled at the foot of the Mendip Hills, this eco-lodge was designed with the view in mind – one glance at the rolling countryside from the wrap-around deck and you'll see what we mean. Morning, afternoon or evening, the scenery is sure to take your breath away. Perfect for families, there's plenty of space inside and out to get cosy. On summer days, enjoy alfresco meals in the sunshine or laze on the sun loungers with a good book and glass of wine. Our favourite part, however, is the bubbling hot tub. In the evenings, soak your troubles away with a dip under the stars – turn on the LED lighting to set the mood. Even inside, you can make the most of the view, thanks to the French doors. It's warm and inviting, especially when the wood-burning stove is lit. Snuggle up for a family movie night on the squishy sofas – there's a DVD player and a selection of films to choose from – before retiring to the sumptuous bedrooms. Be sure to pack your walking boots. Not only are there trails and an orchard inside the park to explore, but Strawberry Line and Cheddar Gorge are both a short drive away. Or, head into the village of Cheddar for cafes, pubs and local cheese shops – it's a five-minute drive away.
