Escape to the country with a stay at this large home near Glastonbury. Surrounded by hills, gorges and moorland, the property is perfect for people who love a good walk. Cute market towns, such as Glasto and Bridgewater, add to the bucolic vibe. Recently renovated, the living room is cosy and bright, the bedrooms are light, and we love the large open-plan kitchen ¬– a great place to socialise with friends and family. Plus, the huge garden gets lots of sun in the afternoon.

Renovated to the highest standards by the current owners, this gorgeous former rectory is the perfect place for a large family retreat. Dating back to the seventeenth century, the home is built from local honey-coloured stone and faces south across the Somerset countryside. Seven acres of grounds are dotted with chestnut trees and rolling lawns, while there’s also a children’s play area, a heated swimming pool and a croquet lawn, so there's no risk of running out of things to do. During the summer, the terraces are particularly inviting, while the clear skies provide fantastic stargazing opportunities come nighttime. Meanwhile, in winter, the thought of a brisk walk followed by lunch at the local pub is hard to resist — heading straight north from the property will get you to the pretty brooks that run off the River Cary, while the nearby villages of Corton Denham and Babcary are both home to excellent watering holes. The idyllic market town of Castle Cary is a ten-minute drive away, and just beyond that lies Bruton, which has been quietly remaking itself as a haven for artists, foodies and creatives. Located between the two towns, The Newt in Somerset is an extensive country estate, complete with fascinating cider-making and gardening exhibits, a Roman villa museum and plenty of parkland to explore.

A lot of time and thought has been put into converting the historic chapel that is now The Burrow. Nestled in a tranquil spot of countryside surrounded by rolling hills, the space feels authentically rustic but still comfortable and elegant. The tall arch windows provide floods of natural light and beautiful views of the landscape, including the inviting (and heated) swimming pool. While remote location would be difficult for guests without a car, it also makes it a great spot for a romantic getaway.

Welcome Hamper

Contemporary farmhouse style in the grounds of New Cross Farmhouse estate, your hosts have paid great attention to every detail to provide you with a luxury experience in the heart of Somerset. The home is filled with treasures and trinkets collected on travels across the globe, plus distinctive modern art that nods to English history. With its own private garden and entrance, this is the perfect couples' retreat or small family getaway – you're welcome to bring your dog along too. The interior has a consistent blue theme running throughout. Starting at the front gate, it runs through to the panelling in the cosy living room and up to the bedrooms, even extending to the wall art – we love a home that has the courage of its convictions. 

Explore the local area:
• You'll come across three pubs within walking distance and a network of public footpaths through the fields for your dog. 
• A short twenty-five-minute walk will see you arrive at the Somerset Cider Brandy orchards, where you can tour the mill and shop, hike up the famous Burrow Hill and enjoy a tipple from the infamous Glastonbury Cider Bus, serving every weekend throughout the summer. 
• Wander in the other direction and you'll soon discover Flying Pig Cider and their open-air orchard cafe. 
• Within a twenty-minute drive are the picture-perfect villages of Ilminster, South Petherton and Langport – dotted with coffee shops and independent boutiques.

Buzzy Bruton life is on your doorstep at this Grade II listed Georgian townhouse, set right along the well-heeled high street. Mingle with the movers, shakers, and millionaires in its gastropubs, independent shops, and art galleries. Or don your walking boots for bracing country walks – the house has direct access to a quiet lane leading onto the rolling countryside surrounding Bruton.

Back home, there’s room for all ten of you to pile into this magnificent three-storey home. Filled to the rafters with Georgian architectural details, original flagstone floors and exposed brickwork archways strike a note of authenticity, while a contemporary extension housing the open concept living space is firmly in the 21st century. And we love how pared back and gloriously clutter-free everywhere feels, allowing the contemporary artwork and vintage statement furniture to do all the talking.

On sunny mornings, spill out into the garden room and slide back the French doors onto the suntrap patio – there’s an outdoor dining area complete with a built-in barbecue that’s prime for lazy breakfasts or alfresco evening meals. Winter evenings are all about getting around that Fritz Hansen dining room table with original Eames chairs for slap-up dinners and catch-ups. And you can always keep the night flowing with a game of table tennis in the games room, squirreled away in the ancient stone garage. Or get your game face on for a late-night session around that Edwardian poker table.

The crenulated, columned Victorian face of this home is a far cry from a typical, rustic farmhouse. The interior is manor home in miniature with chesterfields around an original fireplace in the main living room, long darkwood dining tables by the bay window, and chandeliers lighting huge bedrooms. Each room retains an element of Victoriana. Attached to the farmhouse, the old cider shed is the kind of country-rustic you’d expect  – flagstone floors in the kitchen, timber beams exposed in eaves bedrooms and a wood-burning in the master suite. The real highlight is the wood-fired hot tub outside beneath the pergola. It looks out over the beautifully manicured gardens, bursting with lavender and colourful hydrangea. If you’re not dining in the grand room inside, head out to the Italian-style loggia where dining is set for the whole group beneath a wooden roof. You’re in the middle of the West Country’s farmland here, with walking trails on your doorstep. But the charming market town of Bridgewater is just a fifteen-minute drive away.  

Victoriana Farm

Part of a manor that dates back to the sixteenth century, this beautiful listed barn conversion is not your average country cottage. With enough design credentials for a magazine spread, the home mixes old and new with aplomb. Gather in the grand room to see a space with cathedral-like ceilings and antler chandeliers, with pops of bright modernity from the aquamarine walls and huge pieces of artwork hanging on the walls. There are cosier spots too, including bedrooms that have been tucked up in the rafters ensuring a snug night's sleep, as well as a log-burning fire in the second living room. Comprised of two adjoining barns, the home has got enough room to seat the entire party, with two kitchens for whipping up a feast — ask ahead and the owners will provide you with eggs from the grounds' chickens. Outside, there's a private covered hot tub, a barbecue area and pretty walled gardens to explore, but beyond the gates, one of England's most beautiful counties awaits — Cranbourne Chase Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty can be reached in less than fifteen minutes by car, as can the architecturally unique town of Blandford Forum.

Hammoon Manor

Single-Level Home

This home is beyond characterful, inside and out. Dating back to 1880, the cottage is not only filled with historic charm but it packs a serious punch with its style and design. Once you've taken in the glorious facade, settle into a vibrant, warm, and artfully eclectic lounge. The kitchen has a contemporary farmhouse feel, and the rustic dining table is a stylish space to serve all your meals. The bedrooms are rich and luxe, and practically come with their own art galleries - filled with pictures and paintings. You'll be based on the outskirts of the Mendip Hills, a designated Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty. Pack your walking boots and a few good books for stunning hikes and picnics in the countryside. This striking home is a truly unique space in Somerset. Whether you're relaxing in the home or exploring the grounds, the view will be a knockout.

Paints & Brush

If you're looking for a classic country cottage – call the search off. With its idyllic walled garden and a luxury interior, this Grade II listed home is the perfect romantic retreat – just the ideal place to spend quality time with loved ones. Host Aisha has lovingly decorated this place with distinguished collectables and antiques, including the wonderful wardrobe in the master bedroom. Watch the sun set over the Somerset hills from the lush grounds – we love the stunning views from here. Later, relax in the hot tub or have a soak in the gorgeous slipper bath. When you're ready to venture out, the Georgian splendour of Bath is a twenty-minute drive away. Spend the day exploring the Royal Crescent, the Circus and the Roman Baths, as well as the many museums such as the Jane Austen Centre. Then unwind at the Thermae Bath Spa with its roof-top pool. For a more relaxed pace, there's a pub and café for lunch in Timsbury, around a five-minute stroll. Or put on your hiking boots and explore the glorious Somerset countryside.

The Parish Stone

Get away from it all at this stunning countryside retreat overlooking the rolling Somerset hills. Step inside, and you'll be greeted by elegant furnishings and creative flourishes that are more than a match for those verdant views. There's plenty of space for your whole group to come together and be sociable and an abundance of secluded corners for when you want to escape into the pages of a good book. With their gorgeous ornamental fireplaces, the sitting rooms are a real treat to return to after a cold country walk. At the same time, the sleek minimalism of the kitchen cuts a contemporary figure that contrasts beautifully with the informal farmhouse aesthetic of the dining table. Upstairs, three bedrooms offer tranquil retreats, a peaceful haven to start and end each day. A stay here is all about relaxation, so step outside and straight into the bubbling hot tub or pull up a seat for sundowners by the shepherd's hut. And when the weather's not playing ball, there's always the cinema snug where you can cosy up with a good film. Just a few miles away is the lovely town of Somerton. Home to an attractive market square, pretty stone houses and several independent shops and inviting restaurants lining wide, tree-lined streets. Much like the home, it effortlessly intertwines old and new to create something spectacular.

Catch the Pigeon

Stair Gates

This renovated barn conversion overlooking the Somerset countryside has been thoughtfully designed to bring you and your guests a sense of ease. The space is stylish, with plenty of amenities to enjoy, including a brass bath, a log burner, a fire pit, a pizza oven, an array of board games, and an Amazon Firestick and Marshall Acton II Speaker for entertaining. If that wasn’t enough, your host provides a breakfast hamper awaits to pamper your mornings. Keep in mind there are neighbouring barns here, so you may see a guest or two during your stay. Location-wise, you’re a twelve-minute walk from Frome’s shops and restaurants, whilst nearby attractions include Longleat, The Newt Gardens, and Hauser & Wirth.

With Love, Frome

Safety Gates

This Grade II-listed cottage showcases Somerset's idyllic vernacular architecture. Its traditional touches, like the thatched roof and exposed beams, are complemented by the undeniably wholesome interior design – the wood-burner in the living room’s old hearth, dressers made from reclaimed wood, and timber beams on show in the country-chic kitchen. Right outside the kitchen, you’ll find outdoor dining for balmy summer evenings. The rustic theme doesn’t mean this place lacks grandeur. The master bathroom, in particular, is a lavish affair with its huge, walk-in shower and silver free-standing tub overlooking the garden. Or, opt for a soak in the wood-fired hot tub outside. The cottage is set on a private estate giving it a feel of tranquil privacy, and the surrounding countryside is ideal for long walks and scenic bike rides. The Jurrasic coast is a forty-minute drive south where you can find stunning coastal paths and beautiful beaches.
