About this property
Rural Retreat - Superb Barn Conversion in a Beautiful Garden
The Beanacre Barn offers award winning self-catering holiday accommodation. Set in the beautiful Mendip Hills, an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty (AONB), in Somerset, England, the Beanacre Barn is an exceptionally spacious, open beamed barn which has been imaginatively converted and beautifully furnished by the present owners. Designed for 2 persons, with the added flexibility of the quality sofa-bed for your short stay visitors, the Barn combines modern facilities and great comfort with a traditional style in a peaceful setting. Equipment and furnishings are of the best quality. The Barn has full central heating and free internet access is available.
# # Please note: As well as Weeks we offer WEEKEND (3 nights) and MID-WEEK (4 nights) Breaks, however due to the limitations of this Owners Direct website we are unable to show the prices for these breaks here. Please contact us directly or see our own website ( for best rates and full details. # #
The Barn's walled cottage-style garden, which is for your exclusive use, is a particularly outstanding feature, providing a secluded and peaceful place in which to relax. There is ample car parking space directly outside the Barn.
The Barn is located on the edge of the village of Binegar on top of the Mendip Hills, 4 miles north of the remarkable cathedral city of Wells. Historic Bath and Bristol are both only 13 miles away and there is a wealth of places of interest to visit nearby. Places such as mystical Glastonbury Tor and its ancient Abbey amid the Somerset Levels and the towering Cheddar Gorge with its caves. There are many stunning National Trust properties all within 30-40 minutes drive.
We are unable to accommodate children under 12 years old.
We do not accept pets.

About the host
Hosted by Tony Griffin
The Beanacre Barn is owned, managed and maintained by Susan and Tony Griffin. Having designed and worked on the conversion of the Barn from the beginning we are most concerned to create the holiday environment we would wish to enjoy ourselves and to ensure that your stay meets (even exceeds!) your expectations.
As you will see from our own website, we are very keen gardeners. We hope that the results of our efforts in the garden will add an extra element to make your stay in the Beanacre Barn an even more relaxing and fulfilling experience.
Please visit our website and do not hesitate to contact us if you wish.

Why they chose this property
Somerset, as the local tourist board declares, is the "Jewel of the South-West". From the towering Cheddar Gorge, the ancient pathways of the Quantock and Mendip Hills, the Georgian city of Bath with its Roman Baths, to mystical Glastonbury Tor and it's Abbey amid the wildlife haven of the Somerset Levels, numerous National Trust properties, and the fine cathedral city of Wells (our local town), Somerset offers a wealth of spectacular natural, archeological, cultural and historical attractions for all tastes and ages.
Can you wonder that we encourage you to take a break in the Beanacre Barn and to explore this "Jewel of the South-West".
