Location
Wookey Hole is a very pleasant village just a mile or so from Wells with easy and immediate access onto the Mendips. It's famous for its limestone caverns and is a popular tourist destination. It is also has the excellent Wookey Hole Inn and Ebborland Farm Riding Centre.
The village has a Church, another hotel, a restaurant, and a licenced “club”.
The property is on the southwestern outskirts of the village, quite a distance from the caves, in a quiet, very private setting. It is on a small country lane shared with a handful of private houses, with practically no through traffic.
Wells and all its facilities, including an outstanding senior school and Wells Cathedral School are just over a mile away.
The house stands within its gardens and on the bank of a glorious millstream. It is a totally enchanting environment where nature, in a myriad of forms, takes centre stage.
Description
A charming home with bags of character and appeal which has been totally restored and improved in recent years. It is comfortable and well-appointed with many double aspect rooms, with large windows that create a light and airy feel.
Details include painted floorboards, pine doors, picture lights, plenty of store cupboards and highly efficient Jetmaster fires.
The star of the show, however, is the setting, which has to be seen to be believed.
All only a stones-throw from one of England's most adored cities.<...
