Dwell on the Deck

No trip to Somerset is complete without a visit to Cheddar Gorge, and from this home, you can be there in less than ten minutes. Perfect for families who love the great outdoors, it's a modern eco lodge on a small, rural park development. Spacious and well laid-out, it's been designed to make life as easy as possible – leaving you nothing to do but sit back and enjoy your break. A wheelchair-friendly ramp leads up to the entrance and the wraparound deck, where you can not only eat outside and relax on the sun loungers, you can also spend some quality time in your private hot tub to the rear. Inside, it's bright and open, with comfortable furnishings and a home from home feel. We love the kitchen and dining area, opening to the deck and fully equipped with everything you'll need to cook up family meals at home. Stroll through the communal gardens and the orchard, or explore further afield – the Mendips Way hiking trail passes close by and Wells is just a twenty-minute drive.
