From the owner

Traditional pretty stone house with large extension providing comfortable accommodation for 14 people. Every room is spacious and filled with light with great views. This is our family home, with everything a house needs to comfortably entertain a large number of people. More than three acres of garden and fields including tennis court. Shed with spare mattresses for overspill - (this really is a shed - not a souped up romantic space! Our teenagers lurked in it a lot, but they are not very fussy). The house sits in lrge elevated plot up a 200 yard drive making it very private. Parking for nine cars in hardcore area. Additional parking in field if dry. This is a private family house rented out during vacations.

Kitchen/dining room - 8.4m x 6m. Very spacious room. Range cooker with two electric ovens, grill and induction hobs, larder fridge, huge well-stocked larder (please replace items as they run out), dishwasher, all mod cons, big pans and serving dishes. Wonderful picture window looking out to view which includes Glastonbury Tor. On a good day it's possible to see around 18 miles. Full-size sliding doors out to large terrace which remains cool on very hot days, and further door to sunny front terrace. Both have eating areas.

Large airy hall lined with books and a piano with staircase ascending to gallery.

Drawing room - approx 8m x 4m with fireplace and woodburner. Plenty of sofas. Doors out to verandah and to front terrace.

Gallery - desk with office chair.

Utility room - Washing machine. Indoor drying line, spare fridge, freezer and dryer. Door to veranda.

Downstairs loo.

Master bedroom - Huge airy room with full panoramic windows and two additional windows. Super-king bed. En-suite bathroom with roomy shower and bath. En-suite walk-in cupboard with ample hanging space.

Bedroom 2 - Pretty double room with small shower room/loo opposite. Double bed. Walk-in wardrobe.

Bedrooms 3 & 4 - Light airy rooms - one with double bed and one with twin beds and shared bathroom. Both have good wardrobe space.

Attic bedrooms 5&6 - Two very large and light rooms with adjoining big shower room on top floor. One king and one single bed in each. These could be extended into dormitories with (three) spare mattresses from shed. What can I say about the decor and its state!! . . . Teenage rooms . . . Very teenage/child-friendly decor! An over-ambitious painting project has left paint stains on floor in one of the bedrooms and attic bathroom. Each room has high ceilings for about 4m x 4m.They are wonderful, cool and definitely not for grown-ups! Plenty of hanging space and shelves in both rooms. Cleanliness? We've done our best!

TV room - Smallish hall area (approx 3m x 3.5m) on first floor with TV, CD player, sofa and chair.

Verandah - Perfect for the evening sun or drizzly days - undercover with perspex roof. Around 7m x 4m. Dining table. Retractable washing line.

Terraces - Whilst most of the outdoor areas have some tables and chairs, these are easily moved to create dining for more people.

Tennis court - Full size court with floodlights for night-time play! Seating/watching area.

Shed - Pretty blue wooden structure with table-tennis, doggy sofa and spare mattresses. Perfect for sulking teenagers! Also full of accumulated junk. This room would not pass a cleanliness test, but our children used it all the time.

Very good walking from the door.

Up to two dogs welcome in hard-floor areas only (kitchen, hall, utility) - but not upstairs. Sofa in kitchen must have cover on if dogs present. Wonderful neighbours have free-range fowl who frequently visit, ducks, chickens, peacocks, turkeys, so chasers might be tricky.

Round and about - Outdoor heated pool with sun loungers at local leisure centre about 20 mins walk away. Also squash, gym etc. Local historic town of Langport about 1.5 miles away - butcher, greengrocer, bakeries, cafes, supermarket, petrol, boutiques, doctors, Thai and Indian restaurants, traditional take-aways. Beautiful river walks. Main supermarkets all deliver - Tesco, Sainsburys, Asda.

Langport has become a destination! Little old Langport. The river has become a centre for paddleboarding, canoeing, kayaking, wild swimming, and the beautiful Duchess of Cocklemoor - a delightful boat run on solar power by our local hero - check it out on the net. There is a hire centre near Bridgwater that come to Langport frequently.

Less than an hour by car to famous south coast beaches at Charmouth, Lyme Regis or West Bay, or try the deserted, fossil-rich, unspoilt north somerset pebble beaches at East Quantoxhead and around. Plenty of historic houses in easy reach, including Longleat which also has safari and play areas. Theme parks at Crealy and Brean with water slides, roller coasters etc, both less than an hour's drive.
