In the heart of the Somerset levels, yet just 2.2 miles from junction 24 of the M5, The Cottage at Winslade Farm lies on the banks of the River Parrett. Set in an apple orchard, there is a wealth of walks, cycle routes, bird watching and country pub visiting on your doorstep. Set between Bridgwater (10 mins) and Taunton (20 mins) and so close to the motorway, this cottage is well placed for those who are visiting any part of Somerset or the West Country. The North Somerset coast is a short drive away, as are the delightful Quantocks and Blackdown Hills, with Exmoor just a bit further. For those seeking a more cosmopolitan West Country experience, the big lights of Exeter and Bristol are less than an hour away.
This is a very spacious 1-bedroom cottage in Moorland, in the heart of the Somerset levels. It has just been converted (June 2017) to a high spec with all the modern conveniences you might expect.

Outside: There is a fenced off area with patio exclusively for guest use, but also an orchard of approximately 2 acres. Situated on the edge of the village and literally a stones throw from the River Parrett, this cottage is ideally situated for walks along the river; just 2 miles going east is the King Alfred Pub at Burrowbridge. Adjacent to the cottage is a large woodshed of seasoned wood; guests may help themselves. Nextdoor is a working farm. Occasionally there are pigs in the sty, nearly always cattle in the fields and definitely chickens whose eggs can be collected by guests. The chickens can be secured in a large wire run, if dogs aren’t used to free rangers and are prone to chase them.
