The Property

Situated within the owner's garden in the pretty mid-Somerset village of Butleigh, 3 miles from mystical Glastonbury, this deliciously captivating, quirky, Grade II listed medieval hamstone cottage, one of two in the grounds, dates back to the late 16th century. Named after a previous Victorian resident, this charming Glastonbury cottage has a fascinating history, having once been a medieval kitchen, a poor house and even a jail! Now however, it has been sympathetically restored to provide a peaceful, romantic Glastonbury holiday cottage retreat, retaining ancient beams, flagstone floors and exposed stone walls, as well as a stunning inglenook fireplace with bread oven and an original Victorian kitchen range. Stairs lead up into the attractive bedroom which boasts a free-standing antique copper bath and an ornate four-poster bed enveloped in rich drapes. You'll certainly never forget your holiday at this amazing Glastonbury holiday cottage!

An amazing little cottage with so much history. Loved it.
Mr Dalgleish, Dorchester, February 2013

The cottage is a very magical piece of history set in a quaint little town. It was a very nice break from city living. The cottage maintains a lot of period features which just adds to the character and charm of the holiday.
Miss Sands, London, February 2013

Beautifully presented, everything you needed was provided. Fantastic free standing bath and luxurious four poster bed.
