The Fleet Air Arm Museum and Clark’s Village (with its major brand outlets) are nearby, as are the abbey towns of Sherborne with its two castles along with Glastonbury. Wells has a truly beautiful Cathedral and Bishop’s Palace with delightful garden. Wookey Hole Caves, Cheddar Gorge and Longleat are a little further away, but well worth a visit. Swimming, tennis, golf (1 mile) and excellent fishing (trout and coarse) are within easy reach, alongside excellent local walks and country pubs. Needless to say, there’s something to suit all tastes, with visits to the numerous National Trust properties being recommended, and located close by to all there is to offer, making The Old Haybarn the ideal holiday base for your getaway.

We had a lovely few days in this comfortable, cosy and clean cottage. It was perfect for our young family. The hosts were so friendly and welcoming. There is so much to do in the area, but the cottage itself is in such a peaceful location. We would definitely recommend.
