Rest and recharge with friends, family, and furry companions in this idyllic lodge in the Blackdown Hills National Landscape, 8.5 miles from Taunton. The property sits within a 130-acre working farm, and you''ll find many scenic walks nearby to explore with the woofers. Alternatively, spend the day at the Jurassic Coast (25 miles), strolling on the paw-friendly beaches or striding out along the dramatic clifftop paths.
The lodge has a Scandinavian style, with chic, wood-clad walls and sleek furniture. Large windows and glass doors bathe the holiday home in natural light and offer spectacular views across open countryside. The heart of the home is an open-plan lounge/kitchen/diner, where you can rustle up tasty meals after a long dog walk and share family mealtimes at the six-seater dining table, before retiring to the cosy lounge area to watch a film on the Smart TV. The property has three inviting bedrooms, one of which is a bunk bedroom that suits two children or one adult. One of the king-size bedrooms has an en-suite shower room, the other king-size can be converted to a twin room on request and makes use of the contemporary family bathroom. Outside, enjoy al fresco dining on the enclosed, covered veranda. There is also an enclosed garden where the hounds can burn off steam and you can fire up the BBQ on a summer''s evening. You''ll find a handy dog shower on site for washing muddy paws and, should you wish to take a tour of the farm, this can be arranged with the owner.
There are stunning walks to explore nearby, including along the banks of the River Culm or through Otterhead Lakes (2.5 miles). Sip a well-earned drink in one of the local village pubs (there are two within 3 miles of the lodge).
