COMPTON DUNDON NEAR GLASTONBURY

Street 3 miles; Wells 7 miles; Glastonbury 6 miles.

A sleepy village nestling at the head of the dreamy Somerset levels. Lush green meadows, meandering rivers, abundant wildlife all surrounded by steep and wooded hills; the countryside doesn't come much better than this! Just 7 miles away, Glastonbury Abbey and Tor is famous for its pre-history, Ley lines and music festival. The majestic Wells Cathedral is also well worth a visit, and shopaholics are excellently catered for in Street. Further afield, the Regency City of Bath, Wookey Hole and Cheddar Gorge are all an easy drive away. Overall, an outstandingly beautiful and easily accessible area with much to do and see.

The Property: 1 Chapel Barn

An outstanding semi-detached conversion from a Grade II Listed 13th Century building (thought to have been used as a chapel), on the outskirts of Compton Dundon. Full of exposed beams, historic stonework and an abundance of green oak woodwork, this is a dream holiday property. The spacious cottage is furnished and equipped with thought, style and several pieces of antique furniture. Set on the owner's working livestock farm, the property lies amid rolling countryside, while the 18th Century memorial to Admiral Hood looks down on the property from the hillside above. And if you fancy a night out, the local village pub is just a ten minute walk away down the hill.

Amazing cottage in amazing location. Everything was fantastic and ideal for sight seeing. Local pub was also great for Sunday lunch. Cannot recommend it enough. Will be booking the cottage again next year.

The property was as depicted both in photographs & written description. The owners were friendly, & informative about the area. Well positioned to explore the surrounding area, & easy access to major routes if one wanted to go further afield. A good mixture of things to do, ie good walks, National Trust properties, museums etc. We thoroughly enjoyed our short stay & could thoroughly recommend this cottage as a holiday let.

It was a really beautiful cottage in such a lovely setting so quiet and relaxing. We had a wonderful holiday and the owners were so helpful and friendly. They had decorated the cottage for Christmas which added to our stay. Definitely recommend this cottage to others.

The owners were friendly and informative, the condition of the accommodation was great, even more than I expected. There was plenty to see and do in the surrounding area with the local woods only a short walk or drive. There were plenty of information leaflets so it was easy to plan a day trip. The barn was both clean and comfortable and felt like home away from home.

Very friendly owners who are generous in the welcome pack we received, which also included a vase of fresh flowers and a bottle of wine - a nice touch. A great area to stay in and use as a base for the Mendies, which are a 40-minute drive away, but well worth the travelling. A very peaceful and quiet place, a really quaint cottage in a pretty little village.
