In a nutshell: Short drive to coast, wood burning stove, four poster bed, wi-fi. Somerset cottages bring to mind scenes of rural tranquillity and these properties are no exception. They lie close to Chard, the highest town in Somerset, nestling in a corner of the county between Dorset and Devon and surrounded by beautiful countryside. Also close at hand is Forde Abbey, with its award-winning gardens and cascade of lakes providing a wonderful setting for the Centenary Fountain, the highest powered fountain in England. Less than ten miles away is the Jurassic Coast - with beaches world famous for fossil hunting - as well as charming seaside towns such as Lyme Regis.

At the end of a quiet country lane, these three charming and individual properties enjoy an idyllic setting surrounded by 3.5 acres of land crossed by a sparkling stream. Set right on the Somerset, Devon and Dorset border, they are just 8 miles from Lyme Regis with its massive breakwater – The Cobb, prominently featured in The French Lieutenant’s Woman – and its grand sandy beach. The elegant seaside resort of Sidmouth, Charmouth (renowned for fossil hunting), Golden Cap (the highest cliff on the south coast) and the pleasure gardens at the fishing village of Beer are all close by. Chard (3 miles), the highest town in Somerset, with its Hornsbury Mill full of bric-a-brac, the 1000-acre wildlife park at Cricket St Thomas, Forde Abbey and Gardens, Axminster and many other places of interest are within easy reach. Shops, pubs and restaurants 1.5 miles.
