Dog friendly holiday cottage, sleeps 4 - Glastonbury (2mls N), Somerset

Surrounded by pastureland some 2 miles south of the vibrant town of Glastonbury, this tranquil location is the ideal base for those wishing to get away from it all, while still being connected to a great selection of local amenities. Take a walk through verdant countryside or visit Glastonbury Tor, which sits high upon the hillside and attracts many visitors. The cathedral city of Wells is certainly worth a visit and is home to picture postcard streets and a wealth of history.

The nearby town of Street has a popular outlet shopping centre, or head 13 miles north-west and enjoy a traditional day out at the seaside in Burnham-on-Sea. The barn is accessed via a long, shared drive. An external staircase rises to the main entrance into this detached first floor barn conversion.

Once inside you are met with a striking lounge with wood burner, Smart TV and DVD. This wonderful room has a vaulted ceiling, is filled with natural light and is a comfortable spot to rest at the end of a day spent exploring. Just next door is the inviting kitchen/diner.

This well-equipped space has a gas hob and electric oven, fridge with ice compartment and a dishwasher. You can take in the fabulous views of Glastonbury Tor whilst enjoying a leisurely meal in here. Heading back into the lounge you can find the two bedrooms, a Super-king which can be made up into twin beds on request, with a quirky twist!

This dual aspect room has countryside views to one side and views directly into the lambing barn on the other. The second is a double, the bedrooms share a central bathroom, which has a bath, separate shower and WC and, a further chance to watch the workings of the farm up close, as it also has views into the barn. A generous area of lawn wraps around the side and rear of the property with garden furniture and a charcoal BBQ, and there is off-road parking space suitable for two cars to the front.
