Making a charming getaway for up to six guests, this sympathetically updated and beautifully furnished property is ideally positioned for walkers, sightseers and nature spotters exploring a stunning corner of the Somerset countryside. Situated within the bounds of a working farm, the elegantly presented retreat lies along the northern outskirts of the Mendip Hills National Landscape, offering miles of peaceful walks and biking trails. Blagdon Lake, a famous trout fishery, lies to the west (1.5 miles), and the idyllic Chew Valley Lake (2.5 miles) is to the east, a popular spot for birdwatching. The area is dotted with picturesque villages including Chew Stoke and Chew Magna (both within 3.5 miles), with popular attractions and landmarks including Chew Valley Animal Park, Wookey Hole, Cheddar Gorge, The Bishop’s Palace and Gardens, and Tyntesfield House, all within 12 miles.

Entering this delightful holiday home, a step up from the entrance leads into the spacious and thoughtfully organised open-plan kitchen/diner with light streaming in via skylights in the gently sloping ceiling. Featuring a sociable central farmhouse-style dining table, this is an ideal space for getting together for a special family meal; the surrounding kitchen has a wealth of useful equipment, alongside plenty of storage and workspace. Exploring the ground floor further, the snug and welcoming lounge features a Smart TV and comfortable seating, ideal for an evening’s relaxation after a great day discovering the Mendip Hills. There’s also a convenient utility room which leads through to a tastefully presented bathroom with a lovely roll top bath. Heading upstairs, you will find a refreshing first-floor shower room and a choice of three bright and cosy bedrooms: two cheery king-size rooms and a sweet single, which can be made into a double on request.

From the kitchen, French doors lead out into the charming and enclosed courtyard-style garden. With ample outdoor furniture, this is a relaxing space to settle back with a coffee in the morning or enjoy some al fresco dining in the evening. Parking is available for two cars.
