The Smithy - Self-catering cottage in Somerset
Ilminster, , Somerset
England,
Regno Unito
Come for the best of both worlds in a glorious part of the world. You have your own sitting room with cosy sofa and flat screen TV, a dining area, books, games and cocktail making kit, plus a nifty, colourful kitchen with everything you need to cook together. You're left milk, freshly baked sourdough and locally made butter, so snuggle in and enjoy some you time – or, be lazy and have every one of your meals at The Barrington Boar.
Take early morning tea on your terrace with the smell of freshly baked bread wafting from the bakery, explore the charming Hamstone, thatched village, visit 13th-century St Mary's church with its distinctive octagonal tower, or set off on some sublime walks from the door.
Lovely to come back to your own nest, or head to the pub for a pint of something local before supper. Retire to a sumptuous, beamed bedroom with free-standing bath, MAKE soaps and lotions, a separate shower, peace.
