The Experience
Wind round a final bend to confront a wild valley, so wide and grassy it could be a backdrop to ‘Watership Down’. Here lie 35 acres dotted with horses and mown by sheep: yours to explore. The owners’ house, at the end of the long, high-hedgerow’d lane, was the Keeper’s Cottage for Montacute House, six miles down the bridle path and Elizabethan (yes, you can walk there). Your cottage (please no dogs), a beautifully converted single-storey old dairy, is attached. Open the stable door to a find a little nest glowing in the sunlight, all whites, creams and soft grey-blues. The clever woodwork is Andy’s – his workshop is on site – while Sarah runs a stud farm and breeds German ponies. A hamstone wall and an arched doorway separate the dreamy living and sleeping areas: fat white sofa, coir carpeted floor, woody kitchenette. Eat in Tintinhull, stock up in Yeovil, visit the farm shop a mile down the lane (it has a bistro too). Return to exposed beams above the big goosedown-dressed bed, and a little courtyard that catches the sun.

Sock Cottage was everything we look for and more. The first thing we noticed on arrival was the beautiful wisteria and fantastic setting and the feeling inside the cottage was one of spaciousness, cleanliness and attention to detail, with beams and crafted wood and forged fittings..and flowers..and sumptuous choice of breakfast goodies which Sarah had left for our week’s stay, even catering for my off piste vegetarian preferences! Sarah and Andy were great hosts..friendly, helpful, welcoming yet totally respectful of our space. And ponies and dogs were the icing on the cake. We’ll be back!

We had a lovely 5-night stay in this beautiful, comfortable and well-equipped cottage. Sarah's generous supply of tomatoes, mushrooms, eggs, bacon, bread, jam, butter and cereals made for easy and delicious sustaining breakfasts that lasted our entire stay. The perfect place to unwind and relax, with plenty to see and do in the local area. We didn't get round to all the recommended restaurants/pubs, but did especially enjoy the Devonshire Arms and 3, The Green in Sherbourne. A delightful place, with thoughtful, welcoming hosts. We'd love to return.

We loved our stay, a perfect spot to bask in the glory of the countryside. Great hosts, wonderfully equipped cottage complete with lovely fresh farm produce on arrival - enough to keep you going throughout your stay! Lots to see and do in the area, Tintinhull Gardens and The Lord Poulett Arms being amongst the absolute favourites from the information provided by Sarah. Hard to top though seeing a badger in the lane approaching the cottage and the joy of hearing the young birds in their nest outside the cottage door...... a lovely peaceful, relaxing place to unwind.

We had a lovely couple of days at Sock Cottage and would highly recommend for anyone wanting to get away from it all - Sarah & Andy are the perfect hosts and could not do enough to make sure we were happy and had everything we needed including the lovely fresh produce waiting for us! The cottage is gorgeous and great area for long walks.

Location
The neighbourhood
Local points of interest from Sarah Steggall
- Wake up to magnificent birdsong. Woodpeckers, squirrels and badgers in the wood, wrens and swallows nesting in the small barn opposite the cottage and buzzards displaying their flying skills over our hills. We even have wild deer in our hedgerows.
- There is no need to shop on your way here. You will find the little kitchen stocked with all the immediate essentials to welcome you plus local farm produce of your choice to create a delicious breakfast the following morning.
- Although Sock Farm nestles in its own valley at the end of a long 'No Through Road' we are within a few minutes of main routes from London to the West Country. Its unique position offers peace and tranquility with easy access to explore and enjoy the area
- Enjoy some of the excellent pubs and restaurants in the area. Our eldest son is a rather splendid Head Chef and has put together a 'well tested' list of suggestions for you to try.
- For keen walkers we have direct access from our land onto Monarch's Way. This runs for 615 miles and was the escape route taken by King Charles ll after being defeated in the Battle of Worcester! A stroll to Montacute House is only 40 minutes though.
- A growing number of our guests now have electric cars. We have a charging point in the stable yard close to the cottage for convenience.

My second visit to this lovely holiday home nestled in the heart of the Somerset countryside. Stylish and well laid out accommodation with beautiful wet room shower and super comfy bed. The owners go out of their way to make your stay enjoyable. Ideally situated for visiting Montacute, Tintinhull and many other gardens and sites of interest.
