You have the option to visit Wincanton Races, the Discworld Emporium, the golf club, and a wonderful selection of independent stores, bars, and restaurants throughout your stay. Wincanton is located outside of numerous other breathtakingly beautiful natural places, including the Cranborne Chase aonb. Just a short drive lies the well-known tourist resort of Glastonbury.

    Owners attention to detail is impeccable, and obviously lots of thought put into the design and finishing touches. The Christmas decorations, card and welcome pack were an extra special bonus. Look forward to returning in the near future.

    The property suited us perfectly and we hope to return.

    I can honestly say this is the cleanest holiday home we have ever rented. The attention to detail is second to none both inside and out. Very comfortable beds with Egyptian cotton linens. Large well fitted bathroom on the ground floor. Well designed and fitted kitchen. The upstairs bedroom is very large with a nice en-suite shower room. The garden is very simple with tiled patios front & rear, modern garden furniture & bbq. You are visited regularly by a robotic lawnmower which keeps the grass short and well tended without the intrusion of a gardener. The only down side to that is that the lower part of the fencing is open for for mower to access which meant the farm dog came visiting a couple of times during our week long stay. This was not a problem for us as we had not taken our two on this occasion but could be for those who are allergic or do not like dogs. The only negative for us (a party of 4 in our 70's) was the seating at the dining table. Two very stylish but uncomfortable dining chairs and one wooden bench which despite a cover was not conducive to comfortable dining.
