The Miners Cottage is a charming retreat situated in the picturesque countryside of Priddy near Wells, Somerset.

Boasting fantastic countryside views and an inviting open-plan living space, this family-friendly haven offers off-road parking and welcomes two well-behaved dogs, making it perfect for families or groups of friends.

Venture inside to discover the heart of the home, an open-plan area that combines a well-equipped kitchen, a handy utility area, and a dining space where you can gather for meals.

The designated chef of the group will have no trouble preparing delicious meals with the appliances at hand.

After dinner, retire to the sitting room, where two sofas and an armchair await to envelop you in ease as you tune into the Smart TV for some evening entertainment, when everyone agrees on what show to watch.

If you fancy some quiet time, then get lost in one of the books on offer.

Step outside to the rear garden, where a patio area invites you to enjoy a moment of tranquillity with your morning coffee.

This outdoor space is perfect for your four-legged friends to stretch their legs, offering a safe and secure environment.

When sleep calls, find two well-presented bedrooms to choose from.

The first is a king-size room, which can be made into a twin on request, offering flexibility for your sleeping arrangements.

The second is a spacious family room, perfect for those travelling with children.

Both rooms are tastefully decorated and promise a rejuvenating night's sleep.

Completing the interior of this delightful cottage is a sleek bathroom, fitted with a bath and an overhead shower, where you can choose to indulge in a long soak or a quick rinse.

Venture away from the cottage for an action-packed day at Cheddar Gorge and Caves; a world-famous site home to a magnificent limestone gorge and an array of subterranean caverns, it's a site not to be forgotten.

Challenge your party to a round at Cheddar Crazy Golf before taking the short journey to visit Wookey Hole Caves, a spectacular network of underground passages and chambers filled with astonishing stalactites and stalagmites.

Visit the gorgeous city of Wells, home to a stunning cathedral boasting a clock from the 14th century and the stunning Bishop's Palace & Gardens, a fantastic medieval palace that boasts 14 acres of fully restored rampart gardens complete with moat and drawbridge.

Finish your tour in Bristol, a city rich in maritime history, here you can step aboard Brunel's SS Great Britain, the world’s first great ocean liner, then immerse in culture at Bristol Museum & Art Gallery or visit Bristol Aquarium for a spectacle of the deep sea.
