Tucked at the end of a tree-lined track and set on a working farm, this countryside home is a quiet Somerset retreat where wellies and wind-downs come as standard. Wake to the sound of birds and the rustle of the hedgerow, then step out into a patchwork of fields, lanes and views that roll all the way to the Quantocks. Inside, the home is full of country character, with AGA-warmed meals, fireside evenings, and a freestanding bath to sink into after windswept walks. Rural but not remote, it’s just a short hop to Nether Stowey and the coast beyond.

About Somerset
Somerset is all about Glastonbury, right? Well, think again! There's a certain town-meets-country charm here that is enticing increasing numbers of stressed city dwellers seeking solace. And who can blame them? Rat race relocators are abandoning their crowded commutes, searching for a bucolic idyll. But one where you can still get a decent flat white – that's an absolute must. Follow the creative crumb trail out of East London, and...
