Description

Cider cottage is situated in the heart of the Somerset Levels. Part of the 17th century Muchelney Ham Farm the cottage, which sleeps five people, is self contained and an ideal escape from the fast-paced modern world. This historic area close to the ruins of Muchelney Abbey offers great opportunities for walkers, birdwatchers, cyclists and fishermen and the cottage, whilst furnished to a high standard, offers the peace of times long gone. The garden from the cottage stretches down to a stream with local wildlife including deer, heron and swans. In the summer it is an ideal spot to enjoy a picnic or a cool glass of wine. The cottage is warm and cosy in the winter and is particularly popular around Christmas time providing the ideal setting for an old-fashioned family get together. Those who wish to use the cottage as a base to tour this very beautiful part of England will find it very convenient for both the North and South coasts and for Exmoor.

A gorgeous place, well equipped For us a lovely change to the countryside. As well as not far to Langport to get groceries. The sheep were a wonderful extra which we all enjoyed feeding. Would recommend this place to anyone.

The perfect base for exploring the West Country. A comfortable cottage set in a typical English garden complete with stream and the occasional visiting lamb. Particularly pleasant and comfortable bedrooms, with sheets and towels provided and it has great bathrooms. Living space has everything you need with wifi access. Pretty cottage in a charming setting. The owner was very helpful. Recommended for a rural getaway and total peace and quiet. Good location in the West Country for sightseeing.
