This unique first floor barn conversion is set in a truly idyllic location with stunning far reaching views and is ideally placed for a direct insight into the workings of the surrounding sheep farm.
Set on a working sheep farm in rural Somerset, this unique, architect-designed barn conversion offers spectacular views of Glastonbury Tor and is a wonderful countryside retreat for all the family, including those with four legs. All members of your party are sure to be fascinated by life on a working sheep farm where well-controlled dogs are welcome to watch the livestock from a safe distance. Explore the surrounding countryside, visit historic towns and villages or just relax and take in the sights, sounds (and smells) of nature from this idyllic setting.
Enjoy a quirky mix of antique furniture, collected curiosities, interesting artwork and modern comforts in this welcoming, first-floor home (accessed via an external staircase). The striking lounge is the perfect place to relax and unwind on the plush sofas or comfortable armchairs, though you will find the spot next to the wood burner a firm favourite with certain members of the group. Wooden ceilings add a sense of warmth to this home, as do the colourful rugs that are found in both the lounge and the modern kitchen/diner. When it's time to hit the basket, two inviting bedrooms await, one of which has an unusual twist of looking out onto both the countryside and into the adjoining lambing barn. A generous area of lawn is ready for a game of fetch or an al fresco family meal at the BBQ area, but with hedges for borders, do keep an eye on what the hound is up to.
To let your furry friend fly, take a walk up Glastonbury Tor, the base of which begins 3 miles from your door and, upon reaching the summit, offers panoramic views of the sounding landscape. Glastonbury itself (2 miles) is home to an eclectic mix of independent shops and healthy eating restaurants, there's even a dog-friendly new-age shop where you can buy crystal charms for their collars. If you fancy a blast along the beach, the sands of Burnham-on-Sea are 17 miles away, where good boys and girls can also enjoy an ice cream or two.
