    “We loved the Milking Barn, it was quiet and really nice to come back to each evening.”

    It had everything we needed and we found it really comfortable, although some further storage in the small bedroom would be a nice addition. If we'd had better weather we would have spent more time outside on the deck too as this was great.

The property

Enjoying a working farm position on the outskirts of the bustling town of Yeovil, is this well-presented barn conversion, The Milking Barn.

This superb all-ground-floor accommodation enjoys a rural position within the southern region of Somerset and is within close reach of the majestic setting of the Dorset AONB, perfect for a relaxing retreat with the whole family.

The contemporary-styled dwelling comes with one king-size double bedroom which benefits from its own en-suite shower room and a twin bedroom with zip/link bed features to ensure a flexible sleeping arrangement to suit the needs of your group.

Each bedroom enjoys bright hues of colour, views of the countryside setting to wake up to each morning and ample storage and space to house all of your personal belongings.

Continuing to impress is the contemporary kitchen, where the sleek units housing all the quality appliances you could possibly need to cater for yourselves during a week-long break with your loved ones, including a washing machine and a dishwasher.

Settle down for dinner at the dining table to tuck into your meal and to plan the next day's adventure, before relaxing into your evening within the sitting room, where the roaring woodburning stove offers comfort during a chilly winter's evening.

If you are visiting during the summer months, throw open the patio doors to allow the cool breeze to filter into the space or spend a moment or two within the garden to soak up the sunshine whilst the barbecue rustles up a treat.

If you can tear yourself away from this delightful base venture into the English town of Yeovil, where you will be spoilt for choice by the amenities that await you, in addition to a number of attractions to suit a family of all ages and tastes.

Brush up on the local history by discovering the National Trust's Montacute House or the Fleet Air Arm Museum.

For those feeling active, spend an afternoon at the Yeovil Park, where you can look forward to enjoying riverside walks and catching glimpses of the wildlife.

Make The Milking Barn your next base for a countryside getaway with all of the family.
