The house has been updated to include en suite showers or private bathrooms to each bedroom whilst still retaining the character of the property. The large double bedrooms are comfortably furnished with a separate television lounge/library available for visitors to relax in. Breakfast is served in the high ceilinged room once used as the infants classroom. The owners are onsite everyday.

It is a few minutes from the M5 (J23) motorway, the A39 and A303, with excellent links to the West Country. The towns of Bridgwater, Street and Glastonbury are approximately 10 minutes away, with Wells and Taunton about 20 minutes by car. Bristol and Bath are a ...
