About this property

A spacious 1 bedroom detached cottage in a peaceful, rural setting, with its own private, enclosed garden. Located in the heart of the Somerset countryside, this is the perfect rural retreat, ideally situated to explore the West country. Glastonbury, Wells, Sherborne, the Dorset coast and the Somerset Levels are all within easy reach. Enjoy a pint of real ale in front of a roaring fire in a country pub, take your dog for a walk on a quiet country lane or just relax and unwind in the garden.

The cottage has 1 double bedroom, a large, light-filled living room with a comfortable double sofa bed, a separate, well-equipped kitchen and separate dining room with french windows opening onto the garden.

The cottage has it s own private garden with patio area. The garden is sheltered and sunny, perfect for enjoying a leisurely breakfast on a sunny morning.
Well-behaved pets are welcome to join their owners in the cottage. The garden is completely enclosed, so no need to worry about your dog wandering onto the road if left alone in the garden. It is located on a quiet country lane, so you and your pet can enjoy a morning walk straight from your door.

There is plenty of off road parking in front of the cottage.

Reasonable, not very clean

The location is not nice for a long time, you are very far away from all the beautiful areas. There is not much to do in the immediate area. The house was not very clean (spiderwebs and very dirty oven dishes, teapot and coffee pot that we did not use. The mattress on the bed is very bad (sagging) and the sofa in the living room is also sagging. The shower wall of the bath is leaking, causing the floor to become with a lot of water. The landlady was friendly and brought clean towels and sheets halfway through the stay

Everything you need

the property has everything you need for a short stay; the „private garden“ is realy very small; some furniture should be replaced (e.g. the sofa) and the windows need to be cleaned sometimes;
