Set on the owner’s farm, nestled near the Quantock Hills, this picture-perfect stone-built cottage offers wonderful tail-wagging walks right from the doorstep. Sleeping up to four people and packed full of lovingly preserved original features such as wooden beams, exposed stone walls and an inglenook fireplace housing a roaring wood burner, this cosy rural home ensures you’ll enjoy a memorable family retreat in the countryside.
Inside, discover an open-plan living space with traditional stone flooring and soft rugs underfoot. The kitchen is well equipped for culinary creativity, with the adjacent dining area and pretty window seat providing the perfect setting for sociable meal times. After a day of exploring on foot, unwind in the lounge area with a large inglenook fireplace and a wood burner that’s sure to be popular with your four-legged friends. This space features a TV/DVD player and a selection of games for family entertainment. From the lounge, step into the conservatory, offering uninterrupted countryside views – the perfect spot for your morning coffee. Climb the cottage-style stairs to find two charming bedrooms on the first floor – a double and a twin. Both rooms boast exposed beams, cottage windows and wooden doors, and share a family bathroom. French doors open from the conservatory and kitchen area to a sunny patio with a picnic bench and BBQ. The patio extends to a spacious enclosed garden, offering panoramic views of the surrounding countryside and plenty of space for pups to play.
