The Cowshed and The Cider Barn are stunning barn conversions, located in the heart of Somerset, just ten minutes away from the A303. We live just next door in The Old Dairy, so we are always on hand if you have any questions. We have worked in hospitality our whole lives, owning and running pubs, restaurants, hotels and wedding venues in London, Dorset and Portugal. So we believe you can be assure

d of the highest-quality accommodation and the finest attention to detail during for stay. Situated in the pretty village of Bishopswood, the local pub and restaurant is only a 5-minute walk away. Set within the Somerset Wildlife Trust, there are plenty of countryside walks to explore during your stay. The market town of Honiton is just 10 miles away, and the historic coastal town of Lyme Regis is only a 30-minute drive. The open-plan living spaces open directly onto the large enclosed garden and terrace, complete with dining table, sofas, hot tub, and BBQ - perfect for those summer evenings, and cosy autumn nights in. Head to our website to see our cottages, both uniquely designed by us. The Cowshed and Cider Barn are available for 3 night weekends, 4-day and 7-day+ stays. We look forward to welcoming you to The Cowshed and Cider Barn

Who doesn't love sitting outside on a summer's evening infront of the fire pit with a chilled bottle of wine and mouth-watering aromas coming from the BBQ.

Imagine doing that, but with uninterrupted views over the Blackdown Hills. Book your summer break with us, and this will be your view from the garden and terrace. You can't beat it... and you can't beat our July prices either.

As a rule, The Cow Shed would usually be booked up, but as we have some unprecedented availability due to bookings not going ahead, we want to give you, our loyal followers, the heads up on some very special offers we have just added to our website only moments ago.

Book your July break in Somerset for as little as £26 per person per night. Check the website for full details and available dates and book directly with us today to secure your summer staycation!
