Elegantly refurbished Edwardian cottage in the heart of the South West

We have a clean, cosy and comfortable home in the town of Wellington, perfectly positioned for exploring the local area as well as Exmoor and the Blackdown Hills within a short drive. We have spent years lovingly refurbishing the house whilst keeping it's character and charm.

Our open plan kitchen/diner is fully equipped with a Nespresso, Fischer and Paykel fridge, and pantry, we have a smart TV and record player, as well as a log burner for cosy evenings in!

There is a large boot room/utility area, and an office downstairs which is available to use (with an additional office area upstairs).

2 of the bedrooms sleep a kind size bed, the third bedroom is a double sofa bed, with room for a travel cot, or just a calm space to work or exercise (which is what we use it for!)

Finishing touches include a real marble shower, roll top bath and 2 separate WC's.

Outside, you will find a well landscaped garden with off street parking, two patio areas (one with a large sofa/dining space and one with sun loungers) and a kitchen bench for those who enjoy a BBQ!

About the location

We are in the centre of Wellington, with good cafes, restaurants, pubs, a chemist, and a Waitrose supermarket within a 5 minute walk. We have a great old cinema called The Wellesley just a few minutes walk away.

Our lovely town park hosts free musical performances during the summer, and the community is welcoming and friendly.

Sheppy's cider is just a 10 minute drive or bus away and well worth a stop, as is Rumwell Farm shop (recently seen on tv!).

Within a short drive there are many beautiful places to explore - Exeter, The Quantocks, Blackdown Hills, Exmoor (we always recommend Lynmouth and Porlock) and many charming towns, villages and farm shops in between.

Our nearest "big town" is Taunton - a 15 minute drive or 20ish minute bus. There are fab restaurants in Taunton for the foodies amongst us (Guddi and Gikki, Ciao Amore and Augustus are just a few of our favourites) as well as a great Italian in Wellington itself. Taunton is also home to the Brewhouse theater.
