At the heart of Somerset and giving the County its name, are the internationally important Levels and Moors. Among the lowest, flattest areas in the UK, they were once covered by sea apart from the curious mumps and mounds that rose above them as islands.
Somerset is therefore ‘the land of the summer people’ as the rich grazing pastures of the Levels were only accessible in the drier months. This beautiful and peaceful area offers guests the chance to relax and unwind; to see rare species of plant, bird and animals under a wide expanse of sky surrounded by tranquil waterscapes, and Hillview is perfectly situated for exploring this special protected area.
Located off the beaten track down a quiet lane, Hillview and the wider rural area is well served by footpaths and cycle routes as well as outlets for local crafts and produce. The Somerset cider industry can be experienced all around this peaceful area with acres of apple orchards, and opportunities for sampling the produce on a visit to a nearby distillery.
This three-bedroomed single-storey holiday bungalow has a comfortable sitting and dining room, a well-equipped kitchen and separate utility room. There is a spacious king-size bedroom with television, a twin bedroom which can be configured as a second king-size bedroom on request, and a single bedroom. The family bathroom has a walk-in shower enclosure as well as a bath, wash basin and WC, and there is a separate cloakroom. There is a large, secure rear garden with wooden garden furniture and barbecue, and wonderful rural views all around. From the bench at the front of the property you can gaze up to nearby Burrow Hill and enjoy views across the adjoining fields.
