Welcome to The Ancient Barn & The Old Stables, Self Catering in Somerset. The Ancient Barn & The Old Stables is based in Castle Cary, rural Somerset offering self catering accommodation. This self catering cottage is situated in lovely countryside, less than two miles from the town, we offer self-catering holiday homes sensitively converted from ancient farm buildings.
The Ancient Barn & The Old Stables:
This substantial Grade II listed stable-block dates from the 17th century. It is built of the local golden-coloured stone and was converted in 2001-2 to provide a top quality holiday home. The stables are suitable for a guest requiring wheelchair access. There is a South / East facing garden and parking for two cars.
Every effort has been made to keep the original features while modern comforts have been added. Throughout, there are many ancient beams and timbers.
On the ground floor there is the main living room divided into kitchen / sitting and dining areas. There is also a bedroom on this floor with a magnificent king-sized four-poster bed, and a bathroom next door.
Upstairs there are two further good-sized bedrooms, one double room (with 5ft double bed) the other with three single beds. There is a second bathroom (with shower) on this floor.
South Somerset… this is a very special place in an area of England that as yet has hardly been touched by tourism. The countryside is pretty, the pace of life is gentle and the local people are friendly and helpful. Many of our guests return again and again to this lovely part of the world.
