Set on a working farm in the heart of beautiful Somerset countryside, Pear Tree Cottages offer luxury self-catering accommodation. The two cottages combine the traditional with every modern convenience. Both dwellings are spacious and beautifully light and airy, with private south-facing patio areas with table and chairs allowing you to soak up the Somerset sunshine. Enjoy walking or cycling over the Mendip Hills or across the billiard flat Somerset Levels or use the cottages as a base for exploring attractions such as Cheddar, Wells, Bath, Glastonbury and Weston-super-Mare. The farm is criss-crossed by footpaths and offers great views across the valley floor to Axbridge, Cheddar and Wells and even to Brean Down and the Bristol Channel beyond.
The 4 star, gold award cottages are alongside a quiet country lane. The ancient settlement of Wedmore is 1.5 miles away and is known to historians as the place where Alfred the Great and the Viking king, Guthrum, agreed a peace treaty in 878 AD, and it is where Guthrum converted to Christianity. It’s also known to the modern visitor as a charming, bustling place alive with every amenity, whose busy shopping streets belie its size as a small village. You will find bijou designer clothing shops alongside shops selling the best local foodstuffs: a butchers/farm shop, a fishmonger, a delicatessen and a newsagent/off-licence. There are also three traditional Somerset pubs to eat and drink in.
