The Annexe is attached to my house, but fully self contained. It is situated in the heart of this lovely village opposite the Manor House Inn, Should you wish to dine out, the Manor House Inn is renowned for its food (Booking is advisable). In the mornings while having breakfast in the dining area, watch the race horses pass by on their way to the gallops. There is a beautiful little courtyard with outdoor furniture and lighting for your enjoyment, which we keep stocked with seasonal flowers. The Annexe has a small car parking space, but we have additional parking on our side of the building. We have a cot for babies and toddlers and would need advance notice, should you require it, plus what height you would like it set to (high middle or low).
I am an amateur retiree, though I still work part time. Hopefully at sometime in the near future, I will be able to enjoy doing all the things I couldn't do while I worked full time. Shirley, my partner and I had a wonderful time turning The Annexe into a luxurious holiday cottage with open plan living areas and we are both really pleased with the result. We think you will be as well. I have lived in the village all my life and have quite a bit of local knowledge. If not, I know who to ask! I am only next door if you need me, but obviously I would respect your privacy.
The village is home to the racing stables of Champion National Hunt trainer Paul Nicholls The horses pass The Annexe Monday to Saturday and it is quite a highlight of village life. We are also home to the world renowned Barbers Cheese, especially the vintage 1833 brand, Apart from selling their cheeses worldwide, they have a village shop where they sell their cheeses and other products. We have the beautiful 12th century Norman church of St Mary Magdalene which dominates the village and situated next to the village pub. Very handy for Sundays or any other day of the week! There is a local play park for children with an enclosure for the very young. There are a few local walks and the view from Ditcheat Hill is quite spectacular. There are regular buses to Shepton Mallet and Castle Cary and the mainline train station to London is situated at Castle Cary just 1.5 miles away. The Bath and West showground is approximately 3 miles away .
