Property code: OC-51342

The young, old and four-legged will love this delightful property in the verdant and beautiful Somerset countryside. Surrounded by lush greenery, gather four friends plus one canine chum and discover rocky Jurassic coastline, exposed heathland summits, deep wooded combes and undulating farmland all waiting to be explored. After hours of tongue-lolling, lung busting fetch, return happily weary to relax in contemporary yet cosy style.

With traditional features such as exposed beams and stone walls, this converted stone barn is on a complex of properties yet retains its privacy. Wipe muddy paws and dry damp fur as you enter the kitchen and pop the kettle on before trotting through to the lounge, the ideal place to relax with a good book. Open the French doors and let your pup snooze on the private terrace whilst you get comfortable on the sofa, or perhaps take a glass of wine to catch some rays. As the sun goes down, retreat inside, light the wood burner and settle in for the night as your contented canine curls up in the warmth. Fido will wake refreshed with an early morning stroll in the shared orchard, watching the sun rise on another wonderful day.

With two Areas of Outstanding Natural Beauty, Mendip Hills (8 miles) and Quantock Hills (27.5) close by, there are plenty of woodland, coastal, heathland and grassland walks to keep even the most active doggy happy! Walk the spectacular Chedder Gorge (5.5 miles) and Ebbor Gorge (8.5 miles) or wander the Stockhill woods (10 miles). The cities of Bath (27 miles) and Bristol (23 miles) have numerous bars, restaurants and museums. Burnham-on-Sea (9 miles) has golden sandy beaches, where a water-loving dog could enjoy a paddle while you relax on the beach or climb the hill to Glastonbury Tor (11 miles).

Had a lovely stay overall, weather was perfect. Only briefly spoke to the hosts but they let us arrive early as my wife wasn't feeling too well. Only slight issues I would say is the bed is pretty short, I reach the end and I'm 5 ft 9. Sofa not too comfy and the left hand side of the toaster was temperamental.

The cottage was wonderful, peaceful, warm and a real home from home. (The write up says fridge with ice box - but it did actually have a fridge/freezer. Also an email states you have to take your own towels - but these were provided. Therefore I think the write up needs amending. Two small adjustments for the better.) Ideally located for exploring Read morethe area. We had a few niggles but they were sorted straight away - what more can you ask for. Hide

Lovely cottage. Nicely decorated, and with very comfortable beds. Spotlessly clean, the cottage is in a very peaceful location, with the village a short drive away. Perfect place to get away from it all. There are fresh eggs on site, and local beer/ cider. Had a lovely peaceful week there. 10/10.

Had a lovely stay at Foxwhelp cottage. The beds are comfortable and it was lovely having a secluded garden. The owners were very friendly and on site for any issues that may occur. Our dog Lily loved the orchard right outside our front door. It is a really lovely size for the dogs to have a good run. There was fresh milk waiting for us as we arriveRead mored which was a lovely touch and we bought some strawberry jam from their little pop up shop and it was delicious. Hide

A deceivingly spacious rural cottage with ample facilities for a few days away. The log fire and hot tub made it even more enjoyable. There are plenty of walks nearby, and even more further afield. If we are in the area again, wed definitely stay here!
