Our home is one of four cottages in a row,

at the foot of Ham Hill.

 

A basic, simple yet fully functional family home,  
located on a private cul-de-sac.

Small but pretty cottage with an outdoor sitting area overlooking the fields towards the former Abbey,
church and hills beyond. 

​

Montacute is best known for its historic house and parkland with walks starting from our doorstep into
the village and to the woods, hills and countryside.
Dog-friendly property.
