There are nearby village and farm shops, a doctors and dentist.

Set in the heart of this beautiful Somerset hamlet almost equidistant between Bath and Bristol, The Old Rectory is approached via a long gated, graveled driveway across the village green that sweeps gently through lawned gardens to the front of the property. Grade II Listed of being of special architectural and historic interest, English Heritage state that the house is believed to have a 17th Century core with 18th Century additions - without any doubt, this is an exceptionally fine example of a classic Georgian Residence. A six-panel door on the southeast elevation opens to a small vestibule leading to a most stunning flagstone hallway with fine sweeping galleried staircase to first floor. Radiating off this hallway are four reception rooms, the principal drawing room enjoying a wonderful southeasterly aspect with dual aspect tall sash windows and a splendid open fireplace with marble surround. Set to the rear of this room is a more intimate reading room with well-appointed study to the far side. Bespoke book shelving and display alcoves have been crafted to either side of the Georgian fireplace and run the full width of the wall opposite. The formal dining room has wonderful warmth and ambience with all walls paneled and exposed ceiling beam. A single stone step leads down into the most elegant hand crafted bespoke Smallbone kitchen with level edged granite work surfaces and four oven AGA with companion stove to side set into the inglenook fireplace still with its original bread oven. Complementing this room is an equally well appointed pastry kitchen by Smallbone with refrigeration, stainless steel preparation sink again set into an island unit. The breakfast room provides a relaxed and informal contrast to the adjacent dining room and a doorway leads directly into the sheltered walled courtyard, which is perfect for summer dining.

....
The bright well lit landing leads to a superb master suite, which commands breathtaking views across the grounds to fields and open countryside. There is a walk through dressing room with en suite bathroom with white sanitary ware and his and hers vanity units. At the first floor level there are a further two double bedrooms, one of which opens to a children's playroom that could be used as an occasional bedroom for visiting friends and family. There are two further bathrooms on this floor and a back staircase to ground floor level with laundry and utility rooms off. At second floor there is a fifth bedroom and a split landing leads to a third bathroom and two top floor bedrooms which with dedicated bathroom. This floor is clearly the original staff quarters and whilst not currently used as such would certainly lend itself in this regard.

....
Perhaps the largest surprise of all with The Old Rectory is the magnificent garaging that adjoins the property. Created by the current owners with electric security doors, this is large enough to accommodate ten or so vehicles; with under floor heating and dehumidifying system, this is truly a very special feature for the motor enthusiast. The lawned gardens are beautifully tended, sweeping on three sides of the property and featuring a wonderful array of specimen tress and shrubs.
