About this property

In Dundry, at the northern part of the Mendip Hills, between Bristol and the Chew Valley Lake is this lovely dormer style holiday home, Annexe Chetnole. Enjoying a superb location attached to the owner’s home, with lovely views and easy access to the stunning Mendip Hills AONB and the bustling city of Bristol, Annexe Chetnole is a fantastic dwelling for couples or a family of four. Looking forward to whipping up flavourful meals in the well-equipped kitchen/diner, featuring a handy dishwasher, ready to enjoy at the dining table for four over a bottle of wine. After dinner, why not catch the last of the day’s rays out in the garden, where little ones can play on the small slide and with the toys kindly provided, or gather around the fire pit to toast marshmallows? As the evening cools, retire to the sitting room, where you can snuggle up on the plush leather sofas and enjoy a family favourite on the Smart TV, as the electric fire adds a gentle glow and warmth to the space. As your eyes grow heavy, climb the stairs up to the first floor where you can choose from three well-appointed bedrooms to catch your rest in, a double and two singles, all of which have plenty of storage for your belongings. In the morning, prepare for the day in style in the bathroom, where you can enjoy a soak in the bath which features a handheld shower, before setting out for a day of adventure. Explore your local surroundings, where nearby you will find the welcoming eateries of The Carpenters Tavern and The Dundry Inn, ideal for those evening’s when you don’t feel like cooking! Continue on to Bishopsworthy, where the keen golfers in your party can test out their swing at the nearby Woodspring Golf & Country Club, or if that isn’t your thing, why not enjoy a leisurely stroll or cycle through the scenic Manor Woods Valley or a picnic in the picturesque Victoria Park? Continue on to the thriving city of Bristol, where you can visit the historic 19th-century Brunel’s SS Great Britain, meet the local marine life at the Bristol Aquarium, marvel at the remarkable Bristol Cathedral, or wander up to the 18th-century Clifton Observatory where you can enjoy panoramic views over the Victorian Clifton Suspension Bridge. Other attractions within the city include the Bristol Hippodrome, the Bristol Museum & Art Gallery, Bristol Zoo Gardens, and the annual Bristol Balloon Fiesta which takes place over several days every August. For further excellent walking and cycling opportunities, take the short drive over to the Mendip Hills AONB, where you can embark on a hike along the renowned Cheddar Gorge, or visit the Mendip Activity Centre where you can try your hand at a wealth of activities including, caving, bushcraft, kayaking and tobogganing. Further afield you will find the historic city of Bath, home to The Roman Baths, The Jane Austen Centre, and the National Trust site of Prior Park Landscape Garden. All this and more awaits at Annexe Chetnole.

Dundry is a pleasant rural hamlet in Somerset, with views of Bristol City to the north and the Chew Valley Lakes/Mendips to the south.

  • Claire

    Property is well equipped and was very clean. Ideal location for day trips to Bristol, easy to get to the park and ride. Great views from the property, and we enjoyed the outdoor space and local walks, especially the footpath to Dundry village. One minor issue: the proximity to Bristol airport's flight path. Flights stop at night and we became used to the daytime air traffic as our stay progressed, but we feel that it should be mentioned in the listing. Thank you, Richard, for making us so welcome.

  • Anne

    Used as a base to explore the Somerset countryside. Well equipped kitchen and very comfortable sitting room. A little challenging for head height upstairs but not really a problem for a week!

  • Vinoth

    Lovely lounge, and a spacious kitchen. Stair-gate and high chair were provided and was very safe around the house. Excellent scenic view from the house in 360 degree. A lil animal farm selling Milk & Ice Cream is next door making it a wonderful place to stay. Owner is a very kind gentleman. Will visit again. Thank you
