Luxury self-catering accommodation in Somerset
From a country house in Bath to a unique bolthole in the green Quantock Hills, Somerset offers gorgeous homes for touring groups of all sizes.
From countryside to coastline, luxury cottages in the heart of Somerset place guests close to pretty towns as well as the sandy beaches along the northern edge, whilst remaining within easy reach of festival famous Glastonbury. Book a luxury home near the city of Bath and experience a taste of how the Romans lived; children will love exploring the baths, and tucking into high tea at one of the many cafés. A family house in Wells affords you prime access to the city's majestic cathedral with its free daily tours, whereas those based in Frome will love the street markets.
Close to Wells, Wookey Hole Caves are a pull for visitors; the fine structures show signs of habitation dating back thousands of years, but modern visitors may prefer to stay in pretty country cottages nearby. Good boots are a must for walkers striding out across Exmoor, to the west, and the Mendip Hills in the northeast; with the Quantock Hills in the middle, there is ample opportunity for healthy rambles. Glastonbury Festival is renowned, however the Tor has spiritual legends of its own, and a walk on the slopes makes for a peaceful afternoon stroll.
