About the area
The property is situated in a delightful position in the heart of the sought after village of Alhampton. The quiet, rural village has an active community of all ages and benefits from a popular pub, active church, and is surrounded by beautiful countryside walks. Alhampton is located just outside the village of Ditcheat, which is also a very popular and ancient village (mentioned in the Domesday Book as belonging to Glastonbury Abbey) 10 miles south of Wells and 3 miles north of Castle Cary with its main line rail service to London. These and the other nearby towns of Glastonbury & Bruton all offer ample facilities. The village has a farm shop providing all the essentials including newspapers, a primary school, a fine Grade I Listed church, and a particularly popular pub and restaurant.

The village is nowadays best known as the home of Paul Nicholls' Racing Stables (trainer of Kauto Star and Denman).
