“Absolutely wonderful cottage in a gorgeous location.”

We chose this place as it seemed central for us to explore and it was just perfect. Wells, Salisbury, Stonehenge, Glastonbury, Bath,Bristol and Durdle Door where all within 90 minutes drive but most where within 60 minutes at most. If you are looking to explore the area this is the place to be. The cottage itself was perfect for us and had everything we needed. My only regret is we where so busy exploring we didn’t have time to fully enjoy it and the wonderful garden or bbq hut. Maybe this is ...

“Lovely cottage to stay in, very clean and comfortable.”

Had everything we needed and a great base for exploring Somerset. BBQ hut was fun and a nice outdoor space for kids to run around. Very quiet at night. Owners very friendly and helpful and would definitely recommend staying here and would be happy to go back.

“Lovely cottage in idyllic setting”

Fantastic find via Sykes Cottages. Owners Dave and Laraine very welcoming..cottage clean and well equipped for a self catering stay. Views of fields including Bramble the pig who likes to say hello and the farmers horses. Central to many places to visit. Wells has a lovely market on Saturdays and Wednesday. The cathedral and palace there also worth a visit. Close to Longleat and Wookey Hole. Definitely recommend. The fact that the children could run freely outside safely whilst we could watch either from inside or the decking is lovely. Family friendly in every way. Videos toys and board games included. Tv and Wi-Fi available in each room. Also has a bbq hut.

Somerset Cottages

These delightful, detached stone barn conversions can be found within the lawned grounds of the owner’s lovely cottage, peacefully situated a short distance from the Somerset villages of Binegar and Gurney Slade, and only four miles from Shepton Mallet. A great touring base, there are numerous attractions within an easy drive of the barns, catering for all tastes and ages, ranging from picturesque Wells, England’s smallest city, with its stunning cathedral. Head to mystical Glastonbury where you can take the challenge of a climb to the top of Glastonbury Tor and be rewarded with the exceptional views across the Somerset Levels, or maybe sample some retail therapy at Clark’s shopping village. Golfing parties will love the variety on offer with four 18-hole golf courses within ten miles of the cottages. You’ll certainly return home refreshed after a stay in this wonderful Somerset Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty. These charming and comfortable holiday cottages can be enjoyed at any time of the year.

The property

Sunset Cottage is a beautiful country retreat with a contemporary interior design and rural views.

In the garden is a charming ‘gingerbread’ style barbecue hut which provides a fantastic setting for the group to gather together at any time of year.

Features include a stylish open plan ground floor living area, having a feature window which extends into the roof to provide wonderful views of the nearby paddock, whilst the romantics can sit by the wall-mounted, electric flame-effect fire and gaze at the starlit sky from the comfort of the sofa, and to one side there’s a well-equipped kitchen area, a lovely place to prepare delicious treats for your group.

Whether you prefer a bath or a shower, both are on offer here, with a ground floor walk-in shower as well as a double-ended bath.

Upstairs, there’s the eaves double bedroom which has its own en-suite shower room and there are two steps up to an eaves family bedroom with three single beds, both rooms enjoying views across the lovely Mendip countryside.

Outside there’s a private undercover decking area where you can relax and take in the fresh Somerset air.

Fire up a barbecue all year round whatever the weather either in the barbecue hut or alfresco on the covered decking.

If you’re lucky, you may be able to marvel at one of the glorious sunsets, or stroll across the shared lawns and greet the horses in the fields.

About the location

GURNEY SLADE AND BINEGAR

Shepton Mallet 4 miles.

The twin Somerset villages of Gurney Slade and Binegar can be found just four miles north of Shepton Mallet nestling on the eastern edge of the Mendip Hills, an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty. Well served by local inns and a well-stocked village shop and Post Office, the area also abounds in lovely walks which criss-cross the lush countryside. The nearby historic town of Shepton Mallet is a delightful mixture of old and new, with some wonderful old architecture and a weekly market, plus a variety of shops, pubs and eateries. This is a beautiful landscape, with unique places to visit and activities to suit everyone. The Royal Bath and West Showground, just south of Shepton Mallet is the site of one of Britain's major agricultural shows, held here annually in May/June, whilst many other events are staged regularly throughout the year. The area offers a superb touring base with an easy drive to Wells, Glastonbury and Bath, and many family attractions including Cheddar Gorge, Wookey Hole Caves and East Somerset Railway are all also within a 45-minute drive. Then, after your day out exploring this lovely part of Somerset, why not treat yourselves to a glass of the scrumptious local cider! You'd be hard-pressed to find a better holiday base.
