Holiday cottage to rent in Bath (10mls W), Somerset

Accommodation details

Situated within the grounds of the owners’ licensed zoo, a variety of animals can be seen grazing nearby, from pygmy goats to alpacas. Once you have finished exploring the grounds, head out into the beautiful Somerset countryside that surrounds the property, offering a wonderful selection of routes, ideal for walking and cycling.

Why not follow this with a bite to eat at the on site Park View Restaurant or in the pub in the nearby picturesque village of Chew Magna (0.5 miles). Just 11 miles away is the historic spa city of Bath, famous for its Georgian architecture, Roman baths, and selection of galleries, while neighbouring Bristol (6 miles) is a lively cosmopolitan city with a fascinating maritime history.

Within 16 miles, other attractions include Cheddar Gorge, Wells, and Glastonbury. A paved path and a small flight of steps bring you to the private entrance into this single-storey property. It is close to the owners’ home, yet privacy is assured. Once inside, you are met with a comfortable open-plan lounge/diner.

This is the perfect spot in which to relax and unwind as it has a comfortable sofa, TV, and space to dine. To the left is the compact kitchen, which has an electric oven and hob, fridge with ice compartment, and microwave. Leading from the kitchen you will find a cosy twin bedroom. Heading back across the lounge/diner there is a shower room, shared between both bedrooms and offers a shower and WC.

Just next door is a light and bright king-size bedroom. Outside, there are shared gardens to the front of the property, ideal for enjoying al fresco drinks with a view of the Somerset countryside. When they’re not having fun in the shared outdoor play area, children and adults alike are invited to meet and interact with the resident animals, which range from camels, pygmy goats, and wallabies to alpacas, donkeys, and Shetland ponies.
