Greenhills is a beautiful period stone cottage in an unspoilt Somerset village just a few miles from historic Bruton, with a renowned pub, the Three Horseshoes, within walking distance. There is an immediate feeling of tranquility when you step into this lovingly renovated cottage, the interior is fresh and contemporary with plenty of traditional period features to add real character.
This deceptively spacious and much-loved cottage has the special bonus of two sitting-rooms, each with a wood-burning stove. One is set up as a TV room with relaxed seating that can easily be set up as a sofa or as two armchairs – the television is a Smart TV, as is the one in the kitchen – and the other sitting-room is a place to relax and chat after a day out exploring an area that is rich with history. There is a large open plan contemporary kitchen/dining-room with bi-fold doors to the patio and garden. The fabulous kitchen is equipped as a true home-from-home and has an island as a sociable focal point.
The three bedrooms, two doubles and one single along with a bathroom are all on the first floor and for convenience and flexibility there is a lovely shower-room on the ground floor too. Painted wooden stairs lead upstairs and with painted floorboards for the bedrooms too, this marries up tradition and a very contemporary Scandinavian feel.
The garden is sheltered and feels very private, with a patio-area that has far-reaching views across the countryside. For guests who wish to bring their dog on holiday, the great benefit is that the garden is fully enclosed. For all guests to enjoy there is a footpath leading down into the valley just a few steps away and on the other side of the village there is a lovely peaceful area of woodland with a babbling brook to explore.
The child age restriction is in place out of care for very young children on the stairs, which are traditional turning cottage stairs. Babes in arms, up to six months old, are most welcome.
