There is also a boot room with substantial storage cupboard, a separate WC, and door to the garden room. On the first floor, there is a principal bedroom suite, three further bedrooms and a family bathroom.

      In addition, there is a detached barn to the rear of the house, separated by a sheltered court yard, providing a further 1,377 sq ft of accommodation over three floors. On the ground floor there is a kitchen/dining room, a home office/studio and shower room. There is a living space and en suite bedroom on the first floor, and a further en suite bedrooms on the second floor. This building is ideal for a multi-generational setup, or over-flow accommodation for the main house.

      There is a sheltered courtyard garden, which can be accessed from the parking area to the side of the buildings, or the garden room at the back of the house. From here, there is access to the barn and a staircase leading to the terraced gardens and woodland which rise up to the rear of the property, bordering grounds belonging to Dunster Castle.
