Nestled in the Somerset levels, this grade II listed home offers a true taste of English cottage living for those looking to escape to the countryside. Filled with original features including gothic arch doorways, exposed wooden beams and flagstone floors, this home is an authentic gem you'll have a hard time leaving. As beautiful as the indoors is, it's the outside space of this home that is the star of the show. With 0.75 acres of land to explore, combined with a variety of unique spaces to seek relaxation, you and the family will have an amazing time lounging in and wandering around the grounds of this cottage. Why not challenge the family to a game of croquet before gathering around the large picnic table for a tasty Ploughman's lunch? Being situated in Somerset, you have the luxury of being located in the middle of lush countryside near to many interesting excursions. Glastonbury Tor is a must-visit landmark for surreal views of Somerset, and it's only a twenty-minute car journey away. If you don't mind driving a bit further, Bristol is fifty-one minutes away and is a worthwhile day out. Wander its pretty harbour, sample its sweet cider, and soak up... the culture of one of the UK's treasured cities.

This home is managed by Oliver
