Hearn Lodge

Nestled at the foot of the Quantock Hills in an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty, Hearn Lodge is an exceptionally spacious holiday home overlooking a beautiful rural valley. The space Hearn Lodge plunges you into a rural idyll, with access to twelve acres of wildlife meadows, a stream and pond right from your front door. The property adjoins the owner's home, Hearn Farm, and has excellent views of its own secluded flower garden, along with an apple tunnel and an adjacent walled garden. Inside the property, you'll find a large and well-equipped farmhouse kitchen, a spacious living room and a south-facing conservatory. The sitting room is the perfect place to relax after a day out and about in the fresh air, with a wood burning stove to keep you warm and cosy. The furniture is farmhouse style, with a Welsh dresser and a pew creating a homely feel. Local pubs provide excellent food and just a short ten minute drive is the large and attractive village of Bishops Lydeard where you will find many shops including a deli and a brewery featuring local produce. Hearn Lodge puts you within easy reach of the Quantock moors, with wild ponies, deer and superb coastal views, as well as the Somerset Levels and Exmoor. When you're done exploring, relax in the garden on the outdoor furniture. Additional Information: Sorry, no pets. Travel cot and high chair available on request. There is a small step from the entrance door to kitchen and two small steps from kitchen to living room. An additional car parking space by prior arrangement. The garden leads onto fields with a stream and pond.
