With a historic past spanning over three centuries, escape the hustle and bustle of everyday life at this former threshing barn which offers couples a romantic retreat in the heart of the Somerset countryside. This scenic spot, nestled on the edge of Chewton Mendip (1.5 miles), is a haven for anyone who loves nothing better than exploring unspoilt countryside tracks and trails on foot or two wheels. Keen outdoor explorers can find plenty of hikes across the Mendip Hills, an Area of Outstanding Beauty, whilst history enthusiasts can discover the oldest residential street in Europe at the cathedral city of Wells 5 miles away. Venture underground at the world-famous Wookey Hole Caves 4 miles away or pick up some wonderful local produce from a fantastic selection of boutiques and local cafes in Bath (13 miles), home to the gorgeous Roman baths and an impressive cathedral.
Bursting with character with its contemporary colour scheme, the open-plan lounge/kitchen/diner at the heart of this home-from-home immerses you into the serenity of rural life, beckoning you to unwind and dine with loved ones long into the evening. Mirroring the authentic, rustic charm of the ground floor, the king-size bedroom upstairs seamlessly blends stunning original features including a striking high, vaulted beamed ceiling with sumptuous, homely touches to create a truly warming atmosphere that ensures a peaceful slumber at the end of a busy day’s adventure. From sunrise to sunset, the sophisticated wet room with its beautiful square bath provides everything you need to feel refreshed.
Affording breathtaking vistas of the surrounding countryside, soak up true tranquillity with a glass of something chilled as you dine alfresco in the heated patio garden. Venture further into your stunning scenery by exploring the 18 acres of surrounding private estate, which boasts a Pygmy goat enclosure, woodland walks, a peaceful lake plus a 20-metre indoor heated pool, a sauna, a steam room and a fully equipped gym perfect for enriching the body and mind.
