Cottage in Somerset

Holiday Rental Description

This delightful, stone built former shoemaker s shop nestles in the heart of Crewkerne in Somerset and offers charming accommodation to space seeking couples and small families. With Crewkerne on the doorstep, guests have a wide choice of independent shops to explore, as well a children s park and welcoming local pubs, restaurants and cafes. With the train station just a mile away, it s easy to explore wider Somerset, perhaps nipping into Devon or Dorset to up the ante during days out. With the Jurassic Coast World Heritage Site just 15 miles away, it s a breeze to plan days by the sea, and the fossil rich beaches of Charmouth, Lyme Regis, and Seatown are all within 16 miles. For popular attractions nearby, visit the National Trust's Barrington Court (7.5 miles), Montacute House (7.5 miles), Lytes Cary Manor (14 miles), and the English Heritage properties of Muchelny Abbey (9.5 miles) and Sherborne Old Castle (14 miles). On arrival to this characterful cottage, take a moment to appreciate the golden hue stone outside which is typical for the region. The traditional charm continues inside where the property s history is revealed through large, south facing windows, old stone walls, exposed wooden beams, and flagstone flooring. Tastefully renovated, the former shoemaker s shop now features a welcoming lounge which is made extra cosy thanks to the underfloor heating and soft sofas that sit beside the wood burner effect electric fire. Flick on the Smart TV here and settle in for a memorable movie night together. When stomachs start to rumble, take a step down into the perfectly equipped kitchen/diner which also has a door that opens onto the main street. Find all you need in this chic space to cook up feasts for your loved ones, who can enjoy the chef s work at the vibrant dinner table beside the window that completes this room. When it s time to call it a night, walk past the convenient utility room and follow the steep cottage style stairs to the first floor where two delightful bedrooms await. Choose from a sumptuous double bedroom and a cosy single room, both served by the well appointed bathroom with a shower over the bath. There is no outside space at this property, however, there is an extensive recreation ground with a children s park just moments from the cottage. The town centre also makes for peaceful morning walks before the world awakens.
