Assessor comments
"Enjoy great views of Somerset countryside, from this delightful barn conversion in the Mendips"
Overview
A barn conversion high in the Mendips, with stunning views across the Somerset Levels to Glastonbury Tor, just over ten miles away. There are plenty of good walking and cycling routes, but potholing is also popular. Swildon’s Hole is a short drive, and is the longest cave in Somerset, while the easier Goatchurch Cavern is about 12 miles off.

About the area
Somerset remains rural and unspoiled, and ever popular areas to visit are the limestone and red sandstone Mendip Hills rising to over 1,000 feet, and by complete contrast, to the south and southwest, the flat landscape of the Somerset Levels. Another popular spot, the Quantocks, once the haunt of poets Coleridge and Wordsworth, are noted for their gentle slopes, heather-covered moorland expanses and red deer
