In the quietest of villages, yet central to Somerset’s attractions, this relaxed farmhouse dates back to the 1500s and is 15 minutes from the coast and 10 minutes from Bridgwater.
Originally the village farmhouse, Chestnut House’s comfortable accommodation was recently renovated to a high standard. The house now offers personal service, comfortable guest lounges, a garden, veranda and 7 fully appointed en suite double bedrooms (2 with access from outside the main building).
Located in a secluded village only 5 minutes from junction 23 of the M5, Chestnut House is ideal for stopovers, as a base for business, or for exploring the sights and wonders of Somerset. You would have to look far and wide to find anywhere as quiet and peaceful as the old village of Woolavington.
With a Tourist Board Silver Award and free wireless internet access throughout, Chestnut House aims to offer only the very best in style and comfort.
