This unique barn conversion is situated within a gated courtyard in a quiet cul de sac of an attractive village. It is perfectly located to explore Somerset, Dorset and the Jurassic Coast.

Situated in the popular village of Haselbury Plucknett, this accommodation is in a great spot for those requiring a peaceful and relaxing holiday or wishing to enjoy all that Somerset and Dorset have to offer. There is a choice of country walks, cycle routes and golf at Cricket St Thomas. Retail therapy can be found in the market towns of Crewkerne, Ilminster, Chard, Sherborne and the town of Yeovil. Explore the famous World Heritage Jurassic Coast where you can go fossil hunting on Charmouth beach or visit Lyme Regis, Dorset’s iconic seaside town. Nearby are National Trust's Montacute House, Barrington Court and Lytes Cary Manor, and don’t forget to visit the Quantock Hills, or the nature reserves on the Somerset Levels. West Bay/Bridport are just a short drive away on the coast, and Cheddar Gorge is a little further.

 You are welcomed into the accommodation through the front door into the hall. From here, step into the lounge which overlooks the courtyard and settle in for a cosy evening with a bottle of wine and a film on the Smart TV, and for those cooler evenings relax in front of the open fire. There is a small selection of books, games and jigsaws. Back into the hall, into the dining room and through to the perfectly equipped kitchen which has an electric hob and oven and fridge/freezer - it is a great space for cooking lazy breakfasts or trying out new recipes. The utility room has a washing machine and sink, and a door opening into a small, enclosed courtyard. Completing the downstairs accommodation is a useful WC. Heading upstairs are three bedrooms, the master is king-size with an en-suite shower room with a shower and WC, the second is a twin and the third bedroom is a double. There is also a family bathroom with a shower over a corner bath and WC.

Lovely homely cottage with plenty of room. Dogs loved it too. It has a paved enclosed yard and an enclosed garden they could play in. We also found a field up the road behind some houses where the dogs could run free. Recommend Yandles gift shop and tea room in Martock for a short day out and only a 30 min drive to Clakes Village retail outlet in SRead moretreet. Would be nice to have bin bags. The main bin just had a small plastic shopping bag in and filled before the 2nd day. Great holiday though Hide

Spacious cottage. Good value for money. Excellent base to explore the surrounding areas. Set within a courtyard area of a cul-de-sac. Main road close by so traffic noise can be heard but didn't bother us.

Stayed in June. Lovely cottage, very roomy, clean and comfortable. Quiet area but occasional traffic noise. Nice neighbours. About 40 mins to West Bay or Lyme Regis, just over an hour to Weymouth. Other attractions close by. 10 mins to shops in Crewkerne (Lidl, Waitrose, independents, chippy, Chinese, pubs) etc. Enclosed lawned garden to front. DogRead more friendly. We really enjoyed our stay and would recommend to others. Hide

We had our dog with us and the cottage is very dog friendly. Theres an enclosed garden with furniture. That is not entirely private from the (extremely nice) neighbors and there is a concrete yard with garden chairs as well. Our hostess was really kind and helpful.
