About this property

Entire place

Cosy Somerset cottage, open fire, country walks, pet friendly.

The house offers superior accommodation, from the spacious master bedroom, to the king sized room, and a slightly smaller double room for smaller members of the family.

Large living room with wood fore, kitchen and family rooms all open onto the garden.

Set at the end of a private drive in the heart of the Somerset Mendips, this family farm houseĀ is the perfect rural retreat allowing you to escape from the modern hustle & bustle. With a massive family kitchen, and a large airy space with huge family dining table, Large dual aspect living room that opens onto a mature private garden with its mill stream. It is the perfect place to socialise, entertain and dine.

You can enjoy indoor or outdoor cooking, reading, yoga in the large two story atrium, knitting on a wonderful sofa, chilling in the garden, cozying up in front of the log fire or going on a beautiful adventure into the heart of Avalon.

Close proximity to Castle Cary, Somerton, Street, Glastonbury (including Pilton & the festival site) Shepton Mallet and Bruton being a short drive away. Bath, Bristol, Stone Henge are less than an hour away.

Set in the heart of the Somerset countryside and you have access to country walks, wild swimming, cosy pubs, independent food and drink suppliers, ancient, historical, quirky towns and markets.

Parts of the farm are quite old - the Mill & its stream are in the Doomsday book, there are old local stories that the flour for King Alfred's burnt cakes was milled in our Mill around 850AD.

After a significant investment during Autumn 2024, the entire site is now powered with solar power mounted on one of the larger outbuildings,

Large collection of books and tabletop games, outdoor games available on request.

River Brue course fishing available on the property.

We have a High Chair and Travel Cot on request.

Very pet friendly.

Great getaway to Somerset
The farmhouse was spacious and accommodating esp the kitchen and living room for our party of 6 adults. Lovely location with beautiful walks straight from the garden. We had beautiful weather which always helps but it was a great place anyway and a good base for some lovely local attractions.

Beautiful and relaxing
We loved everything about this property. It was charming, quiet, dog-friendly, comfortable and friendly host. We enjoyed relaxing with a book, walking around the local community, eating out at a great pub within walking distance and visiting Shelton Mallet prison on a rainy day. We would love to revisit and would highly recommend this property to others.

Super house in what feels like a secret garden location! Very comfortable with a kitchen ready for serious cooking. Local wild swimming currently not an option due to water quality- this was the only downside.

Fabulous cottage. Wonderful trip. Perfect location.
Thank you so much for the perfect location for our Glastonbury escapade. The cottage was perfect in every way and met our every need. Comfortable beds, hot water and well stocked kitchen. Quiet tranquility as an antidote and opportunity to revitalise in between trips in and out of Worthy Farm. Thank you!
