About this property

Located at the end of a long private drive, surrounded by 4 acres of wildflower meadow, this 18th century cottage has been extended to include a vast kitchen, gym (with peloton) and light-filled office (large enough for 2). Easy to WFH with superfast wifi, yet brilliant for active kids with a trampoline, cricket net, hot tub, swimming pond and film projector/screen. There are walks on our doorstep and an award-winning pub 10mins walk away.

About the host

Your host

We're a family of 4 who relocated to Somerset 5 years ago (pre-pandemic) from South East London in search of space and peace. Now that we've built our dream home, and our boys are old enough, we're keen to travel/explore the world, and are therefore renting our house out for all of August/December.

Why they chose this property

It's big enough for everyone to find their own space, but cosy enough for card games by the large inglenook fireplace in the evening. It's also a great house for outdoor entertaining, with a show-stopping kitchen and large outdoor terrace. As we both work from home, we've ensured soundproof offices with great wifi too.

What makes this property unique

The house is ideally situated - slightly out of the village (kids can be as noisy as they want!) but within walking distance of the pub. It's a 15 min drive from hip Bruton (and its fabulous restaurants), the renowned Newt gardens & hotel and pretty shopping towns of Castle Cary/Sherborne. We're also under an hour away from historic Bath and its gorgeous Georgian architecture.
