Up four steps from cobbled yard to beamed sitting room with an ornamental inglenook fireplace and bread oven. Archway with one step to kitchen with 'Shaker' style units and dining area.

Nestling in a pretty valley on the western fringes of the Quantock Hills, Meadowsweet Farm, set in 30 acres of meadows and woodland, is only 9 miles from the beach at Blue Anchor. Within a mile is the pretty thatched village of Bicknoller, with its 15th century church, shop and inn serving food; from here, steep paths lead to breathtaking vistas from the ridge.
Secluded and peaceful, the 18th century Mill and 15th century Dairy are award winning conversions, whilst the handsome Barn has been recently converted by the same architect. They all offer individual, attractive and very comfortably furnished accommodation. The little farm has hens wandering freely in the farmyard. From the meadows there are picturesque and nostalgic views of the West Somerset Steam Railway.
Just 13 miles away are the towns of Taunton and Minehead, each with a swimming pool and a sports centre. Dunster Castle (N.T.) is 11 miles. There is superb walking, riding and mountain biking nearby in the Quantock Hills, the Brendon Hills and on Exmoor. The surrounding unspoilt countryside with its quaint villages and pubs, remains little changed from the days when it offered inspiration to the famous poets Coleridge and Wordsworth.
