About this property

Somerset, detached cottage, large enclosed garden, outdoor dining, pet friendly!

A fantastic, recently refurbished cottage within the scenic rolling hills of Somerset. 4 fabulous bedrooms sleeping 8, (2 king, 1 double and 1 twin); all bedrooms have wardrobe and drawer space. There are 2, inter-connecting, bedrooms on the ground floor, with ceiling fans; and a king and twin on the first floor.
The ground floor is a wonderful open plan entertaining space, supplemented by an outside covered dining room to make the most of the evenings. The kitchen comes fully equipped with a washing machine, dishwasher, fridge-freezer, oven with induction hob, microwave and tea and coffee making facilities. There will be a plentiful supply of tea and coffee for you; as well as washing-up liquid and tablets for the dishwasher and washing machine. A comfortable dining area allows the family to eat together. The lounge has 2 sofas, as well as armchairs, a large, flat screen TV, which works off of the WiFi, Netflix and I-Player are already loaded.
There are 2 luxury bathrooms, both are fully stocked with toiletries (shower gel, shampoo, conditioner, hand soap and toilet roll) and plenty of fluffy towels! Downstairs has an electric rainfall shower and toilet, whilst upstairs, en-suite to the double bedroom, has a roll top bath and toilet.
There is a beautiful, secure, large garden - 1/3 acre, with plenty of room for children, and adults, to make the most of the range of outdoor games (including badminton, croquet, giant Connect 4, cricket, football and many more), when you are exhausted from all the running around, relax on the sunbeds. Between May and September there is a cooling splash pool, with water games. The garden also has a charcoal BBQ to ensure you don't have to leave the property to make the most of the outdoors!
There is on-site, off-road, parking for 2 cars at the front of the property, on the private driveway.
The village is nestled between the village of Street and the historic market town of Somerton. We have a friendly village pub, serving great food, only a minute's walk from the front door and with a skittle alley, a lively cricket club and beautiful church.
There are a wonderful range of walks from the property, including the Polden Way, a number of Nature Reserves and the stunning views from Lollover, please use the OS maps provided to plan your adventures, maybe the local 3 peaks challenge - you will find a selection of routes printed off in your welcome folder. We are close to Cheddar Gorge, Wookey Hole, The Fleet Air Museum, Hayes Motor Museum, Longleat, and Shearwater Lake. Only 5 minutes drive is the Clarks Designer shopping outlet, Street, with restaurants and bars. Many country pubs and cider farms are close by.
Somerton (5 minutes by car) has a lovely selection of independent shops, art galleries and the opportunity to buy locally made craft/jewellery in the old market cross. The beautiful city of Wells (the smallest city in England), with its magnificent Cathedral, is only 20 minutes drive. Kayaking is possible on the beautiful River Parrett, 15 minutes away. Glastonbury, with the beautiful Abbey ruins and lovely walk to the Tor, is only 4 miles away.
If you fancy a day at the seaside, you can be there in less than an hour.
On a clear night, the expansive sky and stars are mesmerising - as is the Polden Way and the many farm animals that graze, as a daytime alternative.
Plenty to keep families, or groups of friends, entertained and allow them to unwind.

We were a group of 3 friends in need of a relaxing weekend. We couldn't have found a better accommodation for our break.Rachel was a wonderful host and her communication prior to arrival was excellent.The cottage itself is very well equipped and very clean and modern. We had everything (and more!) that we needed.There are lots of outside facilities, perfect for families. We made full use of the hot tub.There is a great pub just down the road. Sunday carvery was very good and we had the bonus of a discount through staying at Bluebell House.There's also lovely walks close by and it's only about 3 miles from Street.It was a perfect break and we will definitely be coming back.

About the host

Hosted by rachel tanner

Host profile image
I have recently stopped teaching and am enjoying putting all my energy into ensuring you have the most wonderful stay at Bluebell House. I love history, sport and being outdoors - I would love to share ideas for activities to keep you and your family busy.

Why they chose this property

I moved to Somerset last year, wanting to enjoy more of the beautiful English countryside, making the most of my time walking my energetic Weimaraner! The local pub, in the village, is incredibly welcoming and serves a wonderful Sunday roast - if you show proof of your booking at Bluebell House, you will get 10% off your food bill.

What makes this property unique

The open plan ground floor provides plenty of space for guests to spend time together, whilst being big enough to allow your own space. The fully equipped kitchen means you do not need to forgo any of your home comforts while staying with us. As the evenings become warmer, the outdoor dining room allows you to make the most of the views and enjoying food together; while the more energetic can exhaust themselves in the seasonal splash pool!
