There is a high-ceiling open plan living space, with wonderful Bi-fold doors that open up the side of the barn to the garden.

Indulge in the hot tub or the sauna next to it (just out of the picture), in this sheltered and private corner of the garden.
There are lovely places to visit both inland and along the north Somerset coast. This is Weston Super Mare.
Looking down the length of the open plan interior. There is so much space here and at the same time it is warmly welcoming.

Nearby pub
A traditional country-style pub and restaurant with a beer garden, skittle alleys and pool table. Dogs are welcome in the bar.
Nearby beach
Burnham-on-Sea's beaches are comprised of everything you could need for a quintessential day by the sea, including ice cream galore, donkey rides, cafes and, most importantly, oodles of golden sand. Being Europe's second longest stretch of sand, the beaches offer lots of space to play and explore. For a beach in the heart of the action, visit Burnham Main Beach, also home to Britain's shortest pier.
Nearby walk
A gentle stroll around the lake will take about 40 minutes and you will be able to spot lots of wildlife on the way so don't forget to take bread for the ducks!
Nearby town
A Somerset seaside resort that balances stereotype with stunning landscapes. Set looking over the bay to Bridgwater National Nature Reserve, its just off the M5 and has something for everyone....including secret shipwrecks!
Also nearby
A fantastic 13th Century building with 14 acres of exquisite, tranquil gardens.

Bishop Palace Gardens and Wells
These are just the most beautiful gardens to wander around, even if you are not an avid garden enthusiast! The bubbling springs feeding the wells and river, the tranquility, the ramparts and the setting adjacent to the Bishops Palace, plus the imaginative planting make it a great place to visit any time of the year - November for us. Right in the centre of Wells too, so lots to explore.

A great place to visit
A beautiful garden to walk around with great views of the cathedral.
Wells is a lovely small city to spend the day in.
Make sure you go to the cathedral and Vicars Close as well.
Why not take a walk up this iconic, legendary Tor? Well worth the effort, you will have spectacular views across 3 counties. Dogs must be on a lead and there are no public conveniences.

Breathtaking (!)
It's well worth the initially steep climb up the tor for the amazing panoramic views from the summit - we parked in Glastonbury itself, walked up through the town and past the Chalice Well to tackle the steepest slope first, which meant an easier walk down the 'back' of the tor and a stroll through countryside to get back to the top of the town. Plenty of tea shops and cafes to refuel at when you get back!
A traditional pub in the pretty village of Hutton with lots of outdoor seating and parking available. The menu is varied, food is served with a smile and dogs are welcome.

Fab Sunday Roast
Went for Sunday lunch last October when we were staying in the Shepherds Hut. Loved it so much we have booked a local hotel for the Sunday as this time we are Monday-Thursday so would miss the Roast otherwise.

Loved it
Great Sunday lunch, booking definitely essential. Loads of delicious food and all served piping hot. Staff are super friendly and Covid regulations are well adhered to.
A beautifully restored 17th century pub, open all day for drinks, snacks and dinner. A woodburner warms the bar during the winter months and you can eat alfresco on the terrace in the summer.
