From this beautiful conversion there are plenty of wonderful walks for those on two legs and four with a mill stream and the River Isle right on your doorstep. After a day out on an adventure in Somerset, head home for a relaxing evening cuddled up on the sofa sharing stories and making plans for the next day.

Step into the heart of the home, the living room/diner, and feel instantly at home with the thoughtfully furnished space with vibrant pops of colour. The L-shaped sofa is incredibly comfortable and a place you can settle in front of the TV where you can watch your favourite films or relax with a book.

Taunton lies 7 miles away with a number of independent shops and eateries, many of which welcome dogs.

A very well appointed cottage in a superb rural setting. A lovely homely feel with plenty of space. The owners were welcoming and helpful and obviously enjoy hosting their quests. Would highly recommend and may return at a different time of year to see more seasonal/rural activities. Loved the area and all the walking opportunities.
