    “We had a good holiday at The Old Ambulance (this was our second visit).”

    It is a spacious, well-equipped property. We did find the mattress and pillows to be uncomfortable but this may be a personal preference. As someone who is over 6 feet tall I found the cooker hood to be dangerous. It’s sharp corners were at my eye level. Replacing with a round hood would probably help.

    Hi and thank you for taking time to leave some feedback. We have mixed reviews with regard to the mattress’s being that they are orthopaedic memory foam and are debating changing one to see if that one gets a better a response. Hope to welcome you again soon. Wes and Jen Property Owner

The property

Enjoying the wonderful countryside of Somerset in Middlezoy is this detached, converted ambulance station.

The Old Ambulance House, which is part of a decommissioned World War II airfield.

An ideal dwelling for a family of six, the property not only enjoys stylish interiors which encapsulate a mixture of the old and the new, but is an eco-friendly base, with solar panels powering the house during the day and an ample 17kw battery storage for the evenings.

Make your way down a long, private driveway to come across this delightful abode, where the original features can be noticed almost immediately, such as the large doorway.

Park up in the ample off-road spaces and make your way inside to be wowed by the contemporary open-plan living space, with the sitting area offering a seat on the sleek, corner sofa, where you can unwind and watch your favourite TV show.

Move through the space to the fabulous kitchen, a space sporting shaker-style units and containing a wealth of appliances, including a washing machine and a dishwasher!

When the chef of the group has rustled up a tasty dinner, enjoy it at the dining table whilst you catch up on the day's happenings.

As day turns to night, pick one of three tastefully furnished king-size bedrooms to enjoy a well-earned rest in, with one of these resting on the ground-floor and enjoying access to a nearby bathroom and direct access to a private patio, ideal for multi-generational stays!

Continue upstairs to find the latter two bedrooms, both of which enjoy stunning views of the country and are situated near a handy shower room.

The property additionally boasts a large garden, where your furry friends can stretch their legs on the spacious lawn and you can spot the soundless gliders soaring through the sky, courtesy of the nearby airfield.

Due to the property's fantastic location, you will be well-catered to during your stay, as a friendly pub and a village shop can be found via a short walk into the centre of Middlezoy!

Get to know the local area by paying the Westonzoyland Pumping Station Museum, the RSPB areas of Greylake and Swell Wood or the Clarks Village a visit.

Travel a short distance to Bridgwater, where walks along the weaving River Parrett and the canal, tours of the Blake Museum and the Somerset Brick and Tile Museum, along with a round of eighteen holes at Enmore Park Golf Club can be enjoyed!

Be sure to visit Taunton, with its fantastic Golf Course & Adventure Centre, the Blackbrook Leisure Centre & Spa, and Racecourse on offer.

There is still so much left to see in the wider area, with the delights of the Quantock Hills AONB and Exmoor National Park providing outdoor havens for the adventure-seekers of the group, whilst Watchet, Minehead and Burnham-on-Sea offer a range of coastal fun for all ages.

A memorable break, all year-round, choose The Old Ambulance House.

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