Offering off-road parking and a beautiful garden, this dwelling is sure to be an ideal base for making memories with your loved ones. Step into the property; a porch greets you where you can kick off your shoes and hang your coat, before moving into the sitting room, traditionally decorated and offering a selection of books and an electric fire for you to cosy up in front of with your loved ones on the sofas, or enjoy watching the TV after a long day of exploring the local area. From here, the bright and airy conservatory invites you to relax overlooking the neat private garden. Take advantage of the open-plan kitchen and dining space, where you can enjoy your evening meals as a family at the dining table or a lighter bite at the breakfast bar. The well-equipped kitchen is certain to entice any budding chefs of the group, offering all the appliances for a comfortable trip, including an electric oven with ceramic hob, fridge and freezer space and a dishwasher, as well as a handy utility room just off the kitchen complete with a washing machine so you can freshen up your clothes. When the night draws to a close, retire to one of the bedrooms; the property offers a king-size with lovely views over the garden, while the remaining bedrooms offer a double with plenty of storage in the fitted wardrobes for your things and an bunk, suitable for adults and children, with a delightful vanity where you can prepare for your day. Completing the interior of the property is a family bathroom with a bath, walk-in shower, basin and WC along with another cloakroom with basin and WC, so you won't be short of space to prepare for the day ahead. Outside, find a spacious lawn and patio garden with plenty of furniture for you to unwind in the last of the summer sun while your four-legged friends and the children play. The charming village of Curry Rivel is home to a local shop, hairdressers, petrol station with post office and tea shop and a restaurant; why not treat yourself to a meal out at The Firehouse Somerset, which also offer takeaway if you prefer to snuggle up back at the property, or venture slightly further afield and find Brown and Forest Smokehouse, a smokery, restaurant and shop which also delivers delicious food packages. The surrounding areas play host to East Lambrook Manor Gardens and Midney Gardens, perfect for an enchanting stroll among the greenery and foliage, or branch further to Hestercombe House and Gardens, where you can revel in three centuries of garden design while marveling at the stunning manor home. For the golfers, Long Sutton Golf Club is just a scenic car journey away, offering a parkland golf course, set on the edge of the levels in the heart of South Somerset, set over 130 acres. From your wonderful abode, nearby attractions include Glastonbury Tor and the Tribunal, a 15th-century stone town house which is now the Tourist Information Centre for the area, as well as the host of the Glastonbury Lake Village Museum, where you can find a touch of history during your stay. Another notable English Heritage site is Muchelney Abbey, a 16th century abbey where you can tour the beautiful grounds and architecture, with plenty of space for the children to play on a sunny day. There are also a number of National Trust properties to visit, these include, Barrington Court, Lytes Cary, Tintinhull House and Gardens and Montacute House.

Bring your family and friends to share a memorable trip to Melita

Situated on a ridge overlooking the Somerset Levels and the Blackdown Hills lies Curry Rivel, a village surrounded by unspoiled countryside. The area is renowned for its birdwatching and willow crafts while the village green itself is surrounded by the parish church and thatched houses dating back to the 13th century. The area offers a licensed restaurant, a delightful café, a small range of shops, but the real charm comes from the abundance of footpaths and cycling routes around the breathtaking scenery.

    Everything you could possibly need for a comfortable holiday stay. Fully enclosed rear garden for the dog to roam in, kids to play in. Plenty of board games and dvds to keep everyone entertained in the evenings. Dogs well catered gor with a dog bed, bowls, towel, dog shampoo all provided. Will definitely stay again if visiting Somerset in the future.

    We had an excellent week there, weather could have been better but at this time of year to be expected. Just a little suggestion change the sofas in the lounge they are so uncomfortable and I know it’s been mentioned before but a smart TV would have been lovely.

  • Anthony

    The bungalow is so well equipped and comfortable. On arrival a lovely welcome pack for us and 1 for the dogs too. Lovely touches with 2 dog beds ready in the front room for them. Also the dog cleaning kit and hose was a great idea and welcome after the walks. Great location to explore the area with plenty to do locally and a little further afield. The information books and leaflets at the bungalow had so many options we wished we had booked longer. A great place, a great stay would recommend to anyone and look forward to visiting again.
