Description

BLUEBELL COTTAGE. Just the place to get away and relax. In an elevated position and at the end of a long drive there is no passing traffic and the quietness is remarkable. Formerly a derelict concrete-block stable it has been rebuilt with local natural hamstone and stable-style doors with comfort and convenience as priorities. The king-size bedroom with smart TV is cosy and relaxing, the bathroom has both bath and shower cubicle, the kitchen-diner is fully equipped whilst the lounge has smart TV and patio doors. Oil-fired under-floor central heating throughout ensures warmth year-round and an electric fire in the lounge can be used if necessary and provides a cosy glow. Outside a small patio area has seating and overlooks open countryside. There is plenty of space to park and guests are welcome to wander around the site.

HONEYWOOD. Once a cart-horse stable for Montacute House, the property has been converted over the past 28 years by the owners, Roland and Marlene, to furnish an unusual residence in a wonderful location. Christmas Trees, bee-keeping, and logs are the occupations undertaken on this six-acre smallholding.

SURROUNDING AREA. The immediate location is dominated by Ham Hill, an ancient iron-age hill-fort, now a country park with 120 acres of open access and the Prince of Wales pub. Nestled around the hill are villages, including Odcombe, all with churches, most with pubs and some with shops. One of these villages, Montacute, is home to the National Trust’s Montacute House, a stately home with gardens, grounds and park. Somerset and Dorset are laced with footpaths, trackways, bridle-paths and green lanes. At the end of the driveway you can join the Pitt Lane bridleway and from there walk to your hearts content.

YEOVIL. The outskirts of Yeovil are 2 miles away where Asda, Palmers Garden Centre, café and fish-and-chip restaurant are located as well as KFC, Subway and other stores on a small trading estate. The centre of Yeovil is 4 miles away and provides the full range of facilities of a market town, including a golf-club, theatre and swimming pool, as well as open areas such as Nine-Springs Country Park.

SOUTH SOMERSET. Meandering through the lanes and villages is a good antidote to stress! There are gardens, stately homes and tourist attractions such as the Naval Fleet Air Arm Museum at Yeovilton. Www.visitsouthsomerset.com website provides full details of events and activities.

WEST COUNTRY. One of the beauties of this location is that it is central to Dorset, Somerset and parts of Devon and Hampshire, all within comfortable day-trip undertaking. The villages and countryside of West Dorset, the Jurassic Coast with seaside destinations such as Weymouth and Lyme Regis, and attractive towns such as Dorchester and Sherborne provide a wide choice. Cranborne Chase, Marshwood Vale and the AONB around Beaminster have distinct and impressive scenery. To the north Minehead, Quantoxhead, Weston-super-Mare and Burnham give a different seaside experience and Cheddar, Wookey Hole and the Mendips are absorbing. Wells, with it’s cathedral, the Somerset Levels, and Glastonbury will not fail to impress the visitor. Not far away are Exmoor and Dartmoor and a day in Exeter is very rewarding – you can travel there by train – or go in the opposite direction to Salisbury.

So whether you want to put your feet up and read a book, wear out a pair of walking shoes, or tour the around the West Country, Bluebell Cottage is the place for your holiday!

Beautiful cottage to stay in

By Carol Ream on 27-Sep-2024

The cottage was delightful, roomy and well equipped. Very comfortable with views out to the surrounding countryside. Roland and Marlene were brilliant hosts, warm and friendly. They generously left goodies on arrival which included milk, apple juice, pickle and cheese amongst others. I can't recommend the cottage highly enough and am happy to return.

Lovely stay at Bluebell Cottage

By Pauline Owen on 20-Sep-2024

Once again we had a lovely stay at Bluebell Cottage. It feels like our 'home from home'. The accommodation is so comfortable and wonderfully equipped, and the location is stunning. Absolutely beautiful walks from the cottage itself and drives to many nice places. We thoroughly recommend the cottage and the really nice owners who made us feel really welcome. We'll be returning again next year!

Relaxing place to stay

By Richard Patten on 13-Sep-2024

Our sixth visit to Bluebell cottage - still as welcoming as our first. Always very clean and well equipped with everything you need, with a thoughtful welcome pack too.

What a fantastic stay.

By Adrian and Kay on 24-Aug-2024

Well I don't know where to start as this location is absolutely idilic. Kay and I thoroughly enjoyed our stay, the wildlife, location, accommodation and hosts were superb to say the least. The annex has everything you could wish for, and the open view patio windows allows you to take in all the local wildlife on your doorstep including a great variety of birds, pheasants, squirals Nd event a couple of deer appeared during our stay. We went to the Royal Navy Fleet Air Arm museum whilst the R well worth a visit as we spent 4 hrs looking around. Roland very kindly gave me some information on a local walk and as I sat on a bench in a wooded area with ponds included. I thought how privileged I was to be able to take in the smells and sights of ancient woodland a most humbling experience. I would give Bluebell Cottage a 100% positive experience you couldn’t wish for such a pleasant environment for a nice relaxing time. Thank you to Roland and Marlene for being such superb hosts and looking after us during our stay.

Bluebell Cottage

By Mark & Kim on 05-Jul-2024

This was our third stay at Bluebell Cottage; as always Roland and Marlene were welcoming hosts, with the property being very comfortable and in a quiet location close to a number of areas for walking and (more importantly!) refreshment. We hope to be back for a fourth stay!
