Cottage in Somerset

About this property

Tucked away in the village of Combe Hay, at this property you can enjoy a slice of Somerset country life, with the convenience of a friendly pub serving food just a few metres away. The spa city of Bath is just five miles away, with attractions including the Roman baths, the Jane Austen Centre and its variety of independent shops. You ll also be spoilt for choice with the variety of places to eat and nightlife here. Bustling Bristol, with an even larger shopping centre, a lively cultural scene, a science museum and a zoo among its many draws, is also only 14 miles away. Other attractions nearby include Cheddar Gorge, the Wookey Hole Caves and the Kilver Court Secret Gardens. This charming stone cottage is approached through a gate and up a garden path, while there is another entrance via the path found to the right of the cottage. You will immediately feel at home in the large and spacious lounge, where you can put your feet up next to the wood burner (initial supply of logs provided), perhaps while listening to the digital radio or making the most of the books and board games on offer. Additional entertainment is provided in the separate snug in the form of a Smart TV/DVD, great for film nights, while there is also a desk should you need to do any work. In the kitchen, you ll find everything you need to fully enjoy your stay, including an electric oven and hob, microwave, dishwasher, fridge. This room also has a window seat meaning that socialising can still take place while meals are being prepared. There is a separate utility room with washing machine, tumble dryer and hanging airer in the roof space. Boasting a beautiful antique dining table and chairs, the dining room is the perfect place to gather for meals, whether it s a home cooked dinner.
