Little Herriotts

Bishop Sutton 1.5 miles. LITTLE HERRIOTT is a single-storey, one-bedroom cottage set within the beautiful gated and private grounds of the main house, adjacent to Chew Valley Lake, an area celebrated for its spectacular scenery, abundant wildlife and exceptional birdwatching opportunities. Within a 10-minute walk of Herriotts Mill Pool and nestled in the tranquil countryside of the Mendip Hills National Landscape near Bishop Sutton, this charming cottage is an ideal base for birdwatchers, cyclists, fishermen and walkers. The area is a haven for nature lovers, with Chew Valley Lake recognised as one of the UK's most important birdwatching locations. Guests can enjoy exploring nearby nature trails, bird hides and the renowned Chew Valley Ringing Station which is just next door to the property, where a wide variety of resident and visiting bird species are monitored and studied throughout the year. For cycling enthusiasts, the surrounding countryside offers an abundance of scenic cycling routes, quiet country lanes and challenging hill climbs across the Mendip Hills, with breathtaking views over the Chew Valley landscape. Whether you prefer a gentle ride around the lake or a more adventurous route through the hills, this is a fantastic destination for exploring on two wheels. The bright and contemporary open-plan living space feels welcoming, light and stylish, providing a breakfast bar for two, a comfy sofa in front of a TV and a well-equipped kitchen for preparing an evening meal for two, perhaps enjoyed with a glass of wine. When sleep calls, head to the shower room to wash away the day's adventures before settling into the well-presented king-size bedroom. Little Herriott provides the perfect base to explore this beautiful corner of Somerset.
