About this house rental

Southdown Farm is a late Victorian farmhouse which has just undergone completely renovation and extension. Open plan is the theme with a kitchen window view to die for and a wall of glass that can be pushed away to extend the living space into the garden.

The village pub has great food and is a healthy 15 minute walk away.

The area is great for walks or cycling and there is also a lake if you a feeling like a swim!

A great property with plenty of space for multiple families in a wonderful location. The property is within easy reach of Stourhead (National Trust); Haynes Motor Museum and the Fleet Air-arm Museum (for older kids) and cinemas and swimming pools (Yeovil). Nearby Bruton offers 2-3 super restaurants and Frome offers this plus a selection of quality independent shops. All in all, a great location for exploring this part of Somerset whatever the weather and age profile of the group.

Lovely house, some difficulties
Lovely house, some difficulties
While we had some difficulties locating the key on arrival as it wasn’t in the place indicated in the information we had, our first impressions of this house were very positive. The original Victorian house has been modernized and greatly extended at the back. This means that the kitchen and dining area is huge, with floor to ceiling windows looking out on to a substantial lawn at the back, where there are also a large trampoline (which children in our house really enjoyed) and a herb garden. But this is a house in which the owner normally lives. This means that storage space for food is almost entirely occupied by their things - we had to leave our provisions on top of the sideboard. And whilst the house has been modernized fairly recently, there are signs of wear and tear, though the owner is reluctant to concede this. A couple of items broke during stay A small china plate that broke whilst being washed in the dishwasher and a small tumbler that was broken purportedly would cost £80 to replace. The outside rubbish bins were full when we arrived and were not emptied until the day before we left. The wifi is a bit slow. Above all, make sure that you take good, detailed and comprehensive photos of the condition of each room when you arrive and on departure. We didn’t, unfortunately. Surprisingly, there were no reviews of this property, though it has apparently been available since 2017.
