The Granary

About this property

Street 7 miles. Glastonbury 9.2 miles. Pristine gardens conceal a solar heated plunge pool (available 1st May until August by prior arrangement with the owner). The small, rural village of Edington is situated between Glastonbury and Bridgwater, and is an excellent base for exploring this historic and beautiful part of England. On the edge of the Polden Hills and Somerset Levels, the open landscape is perfect for cycling, bird watching, fishing and walking. The Quantocks, the Mendips, Wookey Hole and the impressive Cheddar Gorge are all within easy reach. The Granary is an attractive holiday cottage in the grounds of the owner's' extensive home. Edington is situated 15 minutes West of world renowned Glastonbury. Inside, the living space is open plan, with lofty ceilings, feature stone walls and glazed doors which look over the garden. From the neat kitchen, steep stairs lead to the bright and airy bedroom on the mezzanine where there is a super king size bed and a single bed which can be screened. The Granary is a Grade 2 listed late 18 century modernised building constructed of Blue Lias stone and lime mortar. During renovation some of the walls were plastered internally with traditional lime and horse hair render according to the requirements of Historic Buildings.

Edington is a lovely rural village situated in the vale of The Polden Hills, Somerset, in Southwest England. The village boasts a handy fully stocked shop a short walk away and four welcoming village pubs, all close by. This is an excellent base for touring the area, with the stunning towns of Street and Glastonbury a scenic drive away, where you can visit the historic Abbey and famous Glastonbury Tor. For fabulous shopping facilities, you can explore Clarks Village which is a designer outlet in Street, a place that is also a charming market town with plenty of amenities. If a day at the beach is what you are after, the long sandy beaches at Burnham-on-Sea and Weston Super Mare are easily reachable, and a visit to see Burnham’s historic Grade II lighthouse is a must. Avid walkers can make the most of the nearby Mendip and Quantock Hills, both Areas of Outstanding Natural Beauty and feature magnificent walking and cycling opportunities. Finally the area is renowned for the number of rspb nature reserves, a number of which are within a 5-mile drive from Edington, offering endless bird watching and fantastic nature trails.
