    “At Pancras chapel we found very comfortable with a homely feel and very relaxing.”

    The beds were very comfortable but personal I would prefer a firmer pillow. The kitchen had all we wanted. The garden grounds were lovely but needed a bit of TLC. Overall we had a lovely stay.

The property

Williton 3 miles.

Resting on the outskirts of Washford near Williton, Somerset is this charming chapel conversion, Saint Pacras Chapel.

This 13th-century, stone chapel rests amidst stunning gardens on the edges of the Exmoor National Park, and enjoys original features throughout, including stained-glass windows and exposed beams, making for a wonderful base for a family of six's adventure in this part of Somerset.

Off-road parking for up to four vehicles welcomes you on arrival, so you can park up and settle in with ease.

Make your way through the original medieval door, before continuing to the sitting room, a space packed with character, thanks to its stained-glass windows and inglenook fireplace; grab a seat on one of the sofas and stretch out whilst the TV entertains you and the flames of the woodburning stove warm you.

When you're feeling peckish, continue to the kitchen/diner, a space enjoying charming wooden cabinetry beholding a range of appliances, including an AGA range; the chef of the group can rustle up tasty dishes here, to be enjoyed at the dining table.

Next door, another kitchen space can be found, with laundry facilities, an electric cooker and an extra fridge.

Dinners can also be savoured in the delightful dining room, another space enjoying the warmth of a woodburning stove, whilst offering a table that doubles up as a pool table, ideal for post-dinner entertainment!

At the end of the day, climb the stairs to find two of the three lovely bedrooms, a king-size and a double, both of which enjoy wooden furnishings and rest close to the family bathroom and a shower room.

Another set of stairs from the ground floor take you to a well-presented twin room, ideal for the little ones or those after a little privacy!

Make the most of the property's stunning gardens, where you can stroll along the stream and across the lawns, serve up grilled delights from the barbecue, to be enjoyed in the summer house, and even play a game of croquet!

Washford, a fantastic village, rests nearby and offers access to two welcoming pubs, as well as the historic delight of Cleeve Abbey and the fascinating Tropiquaria Wildlife Park.

Continue to Williton, another wonderful village, where the West Somerset Railway can be found, along with all your amenities in one handy setting; steam trains ply the route of the West Somerset Railway, making this property the ideal choice for railway enthusiasts!

Travel to Watchet for an idyllic day on the coast, with the Watchet Boat Museum, access to Doniford Beach and Watchet Fish and Chips taking centre stage.

Continue along the South West Coastal Path to find Minehead, or travel into Exmoor National Park to find a range of things to do, including birdwatching in the Dunkery & Horner Wood National Nature Reserve, and hiking along the Tall Trees Trail; alternatively, you can visit the Quantock Hills AONB for even more outdoor activities.

Choose Saint Pancras Chapel for a unique stay in Somerset.

Note: This property has a Good Housekeeping bond of £350.

About the location

WILLITON

Watchet 2 miles; Minehead 8 miles.

The thriving community of Williton nestles beneath the western edge of the Quantock Hills in an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty, only 2 miles from the west Somerset coast at Watchet. Intersected by the roads to Minehead and Bridgwater, the village is well served by local shops and pubs, with the attractive West Somerset Railway also passing through, providing a lovely relaxing trip along the coast from the popular seaside resort of Minehead through glorious unspoilt countryside - a treat not to be missed! Within a short drive is Exmoor National Park with its heather-clad moorland, wooded coombes and picturesque villages, home to an abundance of wildlife, or take in the pretty coastal settlements of Watchet, Blue Anchor and Porlock Weir. A visit to the historic village of Dunster, with its yarn market and ancient castle, is also a must. There is so much on offer in this super area for all the family.

Bookings taken from 17/08/22 will now have a changeover day of Friday.
