Housekeepers, sleeps 4/5, characterful, beamed property near the Quantock Hills.

Housekeepers Quarters is a beautiful property situated on the top floor of The Old House. It has its own entrance from The Old House leading to a delightful large well defined accommodation. It has two very large bedrooms, one with a double bed and the other with twin beds ( but can be made into a large double). The twin room is large enough to add an occasional bed to make it comfortable for a family of 5. There is a fully equipped large kitchen and a barrel shaped sitting room with two settees and a a TV. This is a very large accommodation that allows a lot of space and privacy for those who seek it. Outside there is an acre ( 2.5 ares) of beautiful walled gardens which is safe for children and there are loungers for the adults to relax and enjoy.
Housekeepers sits in the middle of the old village of Nether Stowey just on the foothills of the Quantock Hills where you will find wonderful views across the Severn estuary across to wales, to Exmoor national Park, the Mendip Hills and the Blackdown Hills. Not many venues can offer so much.
We are central to many attractions and within easy access to popular places to visit. The ancient city of Wells with its famous and wonderful Cathedral and Bishops Palace, Glasonbury Torr, the caves of Wookey Hole and Cheddar, an its stunning gorge are all within commutable distance. If its retail therapy that's needed then there's Clarks Village.
National Trust and Heritage sites are more than abundant with several nearby. Dunster village with its incredible castle is some 25 mins away and the village well worthy of a visit. Kilve beach , a must place to visit or walk about is part of the North Somerset Jurassic coastline with its dramatic sight of quirky strata creating dynamic designs when the tide is out and looking the other direction towards the background of the Quantocks. But for walkers this is a golden area with so many walks for all abilities with the views to die for.
Watchet, an old port with two harbours is a lovely place to walk about especially in the evenings where you can enjoy fish and chips overlooking the marina. The South West Coastal Pathis only a few miles away, recently opend and passing through the newly created Steart Marshes where you can view both freshwater and saltwater birds.It also has easy paths to walk and enjoy.
There is so much to do and see a week will not be enough !

Cozy flat in a lovely period property
Lovely warm welcome from Manor on our arrival, with a very kind introduction and a walk through of our accommodation. The flat in the large attic space was lovely and in the heart of the very quaint village. Light and cozy at the same time and had everything we needed for our short but enjoyable break

Perfect holiday home
The apartment was everything we imagined from the listing. The rooms were large and airy. Despite the hot weather, there were enough windows to keep a gentle breeze flowing. All the equipment we needed was available. The garden is so beautiful and we were really grateful that we could host family there for an evening meal. Manor and Ann were perfect hosts. The apartment is ideally located for trips out to a number of beaches and other attractions. We would highly recommended it and hope to be back some day.

Comfortable home in a beautiful location
The Housekeepers Flat was so comfortable and well equipped, it was home from home. Stairs a little challenging for the knees when carrying the luggage up, but no problem the rest of the time. The flat is very quaint with little nooks and crannies. The garden was a real haven of beauty and tranquility. Thanks to Manor and Ann for making our stay such a lovely break after being locked down at home..

Half term get away
From the moment we arrived we were made to feel at home. Manor showed us around the property and was very welcoming, thank you for the biscuits, they were lovely. He gave us lots of information about where to go to eat, to walks and visit. The accommodation was amazing, very quirky, homely and very big. It was set in beautiful grounds. We had the most amazing time and would love to visit again, for longer next time. Thank you so much. Sam, Dan and Alex

Spacious and interesting accommodation in a lovely village.
We stayed in the house keepers quarters for three nights. Everything we needed for our stay was provided, by the helpful hosts including reccomendations for eateries and walks. There was a very comfortable bed and excellent cooking facilities. The rooms are all large, light and airy, but were plenty warm enough without using the supplementary heating provided. Lots of stairs to get to the accommodation and steps within the property, make it unsuitable for people who are less agile. The location is excellent with Quantock walks close by and many places of interest within a short drive.

Large apartment so plenty of space for just the two of us! Well equipped, nice modern kitchen and use of the large and very beautiful garden. Ideally located for both the north coast (Severn Estuary) and the south coast just 30 miles to Seaton. Moran and Ann are wonderful hosts.

Beautiful location and perfect stay.
A perfect stay from start to finish. We are were a party of two adults and two children (13 and 10). We were going to arrive later than planned originally, we informed Manor and Ann who said no problem and accommodated us with no issues at all. Communication throughout was exceptional. The property itself is large, with everything you would need inside it. The living room is lovely, warm and cosy, perfect for an evening in. The kitchen had everything we needed, with a lovely dining set for family meals. The garden is lovely, really beautiful and well maintained. We had a great time exploring and looking for wildlife in the local area. Nether Stowey is a charming village close to local amenities and attractions, I would recommend a car to get around though. Thank you both again for a lovely stay. Lauren, Julie, Cyrus and Serryn :)
