The property

The Old Vicarage is a charming retreat situated in the heart of Merriott, Somerset, conveniently close to local pubs and shops. This property is perfect for a family or a group of friends seeking a delightful escape as it boasts a spacious open-plan living area, a private cinema and games room, whilst welcoming your pets. Upon entering the property, you'll be greeted by the open-plan living space, where you can unwind and enjoy quality time with your loved ones. The kitchen area is fully equipped with everything you need to prepare delicious meals, as it has a fabulous range cooker to assist you when whipping up a treat. That can be enjoyed at the dining table, where everyone comes together to share some laughs as you eat. After dinner, retire to the sitting area and unwind on the inviting sofa, perhaps with a good book or a film on the TV. Outside, the enclosed rear garden is a real highlight. Here, you can enjoy a spot of al fresco dining on the patio or simply enjoy the sunshine on the large lawn area. The garden furniture provides a pleasant spot to sit and enjoy the serene surroundings. Once the sun sets, head back inside and downstairs to the cinema and games room for some evening entertainment. For your convenience, there is a utility room equipped with a washing machine, perfect for those longer stays. The ground floor also hosts a handy cloakroom with a basin and toilet. The property boasts four beautifully decorated bedrooms, spread over three floors. On the first floor, you'll find three king-size bedrooms, two of which benefit from their own en-suite facilities, providing a touch of elegance and convenience. The second floor is home to a charming double bedroom, complete with characterful beams, adding a touch of charm to the room alongside a study just outside it. Once well-rested, make the most of the family bathroom with a warm soak in the bath ahead of another fun day. A shop and a pub are both close by for any essentials or a meal out. For a day out, go to Montacute to see the National Trust's Montacute House, which offers a captivating journey into Elizabethan elegance and grandeur. Venture towards Ham Hill Country Park, an Iron Age hill fort rich in Somerset's history. Nearby, the enchanting Tintinhull Garden, another National Trust gem, provides tranquil beauty, rare plant varieties and serene water features. For an exquisite coastal adventure, the Charmouth Heritage Coast Centre offers guided fossil hunting trips along the Jurassic Coast, making it an exciting engagement for the little ones. Alternatively, head to the Dinosaurland Fossil Museum for a more in-depth look into the ancient past. Also visit Lyme Regis Museum, perched on the edge of the Jurassic Coast, with its fascinating local history and Mary Anning wing dedicated to the area's geological significance. Immerse yourself in the art and craft workshops at the Symondsbury Estate Manor Yard, and save some energy for the Jurassic Fun Centre's pool and indoor play facilities. Drawing a perfect end to your cultural tour, Bridport Museum provides a deep dive into the ancient market town’s history from its world-renowned rope-making days to the present. Return to The Old Vicarage for a well-deserved evening in the garden, reflecting on delightful days spent in Somerset’s gems.
