Ash House is a grand period home that was featured on the Channel 4 television series Sarah Beeny's New Country Lives (episode 1).
Nestled in the heart of Wincanton, Somerset, which is a lively market town with cafés, pubs, and independent shops just a short stroll away.
Perfect for large families or groups of friends, this beautifully designed property combines elegant living spaces with unique touches, including a Japanese sunken bath, a woodburning stove, and a games room, creating the ideal setting for a memorable Somerset escape.
Step through the front door into a welcoming home that effortlessly blends style and comfort.
The spacious kitchen is a cook’s delight, fully equipped for preparing feasts using fresh local produce from nearby farm shops and markets.
Gather around the dining table or head into the inviting sitting room, where deep sofas, a woodburning stove, and tasteful décor set the scene for evenings of conversation and laughter.
The games room offers hours of entertainment for guests of all ages, while doors lead out to an enclosed garden where a magnificent 8-person hot tub, heated by a crackling wood-fired furnace, invites you to sink into steaming water beneath a sweeping oak-beamed canopy.
This impressive structure shelters not only the hot tub but also a fully equipped outdoor kitchen and a generous dining area, so you can savor sizzling dishes and laughter-filled meals while the scent of woodsmoke drifts through the air.
