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.

It was easy to have such a wonderful, very relaxing and restful two weeks in the charming, beautifully decorated and well equipped Sock Cottage. We enjoyed the peaceful countryside at the doorsteps of the Cottage with birds, rabbits and squirrels to watch. Meeting the Ponies and of course the two lovely dogs made Sock Farm a very special place. Sarah and Andy already too are a wonderful reason to come back again to Sock Cottage. They gave us the feeling coming home every evening. We loved talking to them. They are unobtrusively there for you. Just a perfect place for a perfect holiday.

My criteria for a romantic weekend away included privacy, a DIY breakfast, lots to do, access to good restaurants and a memorable experience. We had it in spades! Although annexed to the main house, we had our own space and were left undisturbed. There was a big comfy bed and large ensuite shower with toilettries. Breakfast was delicious local produce, provided in abundance, enjoyed to the sound of birds, dogs & horses! We spent a day cycling around local attractions (Montecute House, Tintinhull Gardens, Ham Hill). Great pubs were recommended and Sarah offered to taxi us there/back. Superb!

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.

Sock Cottage is a lovely place to spend time away - it's set in rolling countryside, with lots of walks available (particularly to great local pubs!) and is in a very good location for exploring Somerset and beyond. The cottage itself is beautifully furnished and very comfortable. The kitchen stocked with local produce for breakfast was very much appreciated too! Sarah and Andy are very welcoming (as are their two gorgeous dogs) and they went out of their way to help make our stay wonderful. Highly recommended.
