From the rear of the house, you can step straight into beautiful countryside walks, with far-reaching views across the Somerset Levels towards Glastonbury Tor. Just a couple of minutes away, the historic All Saints Church adds to the village’s charm. If you're staying on a Tuesday, don’t miss the local farmers’ market for fresh produce and local treats.
A short drive takes you to Wincanton Racecourse for racing and events, while mystical Glastonbury offers the Tor, Abbey ruins, and the famous festival site. Similarly, the Bath & West Showground are also close by.
Nearby The Newt in Somerset is a must-visit for its spectacular gardens, woodland walks, farm shops, and dining. Historic Wells, England’s smallest city, and elegant Sherborne, with its abbey and castle, both make excellent day trips.
With countryside walks, local food, historic towns and Somerset’s best attractions close by, Castle Cary is a wonderful base for exploring this beautiful part of the South West.
