Description

Blagdon 2.7 miles. Nempnett Farmhouse rests rurally in Nempnett Thrubwell near Blagdon, Somerset, a stunning, five-bedroom abode. Offering a spacious base for a family of twelve, Nempnett Farmhouse rests near the Mendip Hills AONB, a haven for walkers and outdoor enthusiasts, complete with a pet-friendly garden, private hot tub, and extensive living spaces. Benefit from off-road parking for eight cars, before heading to your new abode, oozing character and charm. Start your break in the utility, where you can store your walking boots and equipment, before reaching the well-equipped kitchen/diner, where you can prepare and enjoy mealtimes together. For formal affairs, set the dining table, encompassed by original stonework and a feature fireplace, before heading outdoors to bask in your surroundings, with an enclosed rear garden to enjoy. Relax with a soak in the hot tub, whilst listening to the delightful birdsong or stargazing in this lovely setting where there is little light pollution.

Enjoy an evening of competition in the external games room (unheated) equipped with pool table, table tennis and darts. On cooler nights, light the woodburning stove and cosy up in the sitting room, before retiring to one of five, well-appointed bedrooms; select between two super-king-size, a king-size, a twin, and a family room (which is accessed from a separate staircase via the hall). Complete your morning routine in one of the spacious bathrooms, before finishing any work tasks in the study and enjoying an alfresco brunch in the garden. Once you're ready to explore, head into Blagdon to stock up on the essentials, dine out, and visit Blagdon Lake. Chew Valley Lake can also be reached within a short drive, ideal for families with it's cafe, fish and chip shop and children's play area. Visit the quaint city of Wells, England's smallest city and home to Wells Cathedral and close to Wookey Hole Caves.

Or head to the pretty town of Axbridge which will delight those keen on history and architecture.

Travelling south will bring you to the Cheddar Gorge and Caves, and Gough's Cave, perfect for all the family to tour. Bristol is within reach by car, where you can visit Bristol Aquarium, brush up on your local knowledge at the Bristol Museum & Art Gallery, or visit the Underfall Yard Visitor Centre, before dining out at a riverfront restaurant. Round off your break near the coast, spending the day at The Grand Pier, Weston-Super-Mare Beach, the Water Adventure Play Park, and Weston Museum, before returning home in time for sundowners. Experience the best of Somerset at Nempnett Farmhouse.

The place was clean, and had everything you might reasonably want (despite one of us wanting TV's in every bedroom :-) ).

The beds were really comfortable. The hot tub was a welcome addition, and there were no major problems - except it took us nearly a week to find the instruction booklet - perhaps this would be better placed so that it was one of the first things you saw as you came in? so the not so good things. 1) Although the farmhouse is not advertised as wheelchair friendly, one of us walked with a stick all of the time, and their balance was not great, so... a) The stair case on the main side - you cannot hold onto the banister rail at the top. b) None of the baths or shows had grip rails. c) None of the showers had somewhere to put your soap, shampoo, etc whilst in the shower. d) All of the baths and showers could do with a "grip mat", otherwise they are quite slippery. e) The hot tub could do with a rail to grip as you get in and out - one of us slipped on the wet stairs and went flying. f) The step up and downs between rooms is not clear - some indication on the steps that there is a step would be useful - perhaps hazard tape or white paint? None of these would cost the earth, but would be so useful. 2) Not the farm house's fault, but the roads are so narrow, that quite a few times we had to reverse to find somewhere we could pull in and let tractors etc pass - a natural hazard of the area, I know, but some mention in the description would be nice. 3) the availability of things to do - all of the leaflets were in a hall desk drawer - it might have been nice to know where to look - perhaps a stand on the desk iteself? 4) A list of takeaways that would deliver to the farmhouse would have been useful.

Nempnett Farmhouse is one of the best holiday homes we have ever rented.

It is well-maintained, well-equipped, and very clean, with a great layout featuring separate bedroom areas—ideal for a multi-generational group like ours. There is a lovely, elevated garden with a wonderful view and a heated spa. The garage has been converted into a games room with table tennis, darts, and billiards. The surroundings are beautiful, and there is easy access to Bath, Bristol, Cheddar, Wookey Hole, Wells, Glastonbury, and Weston-super-Mare. Meg was quick to respond to any practical questions. Nempnett Farmhouse comes highly recommended.
