Ready to book your countryside escape? Bishops Lydeard is a charming and peaceful village perfectly positioned at the edge of the Quantock Hills, an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty in Somerset. With its quaint stone cottages, historic landmarks, and scenic countryside views, it’s a wonderful base for exploring the very best that Somerset has to offer. Just a short stroll from the cottage, you can enjoy local pubs, independent shops, and the West Somerset Railway, a heritage steam train that winds its way through beautiful countryside to the seaside resort of Minehead. The route passes through charming villages and offers a unique glimpse of Somerset’s rural beauty. Nature lovers can explore the nearby Quantock Hills or venture slightly further to Exmoor National Park for dramatic moorland views, woodland walks, and coastal hikes. Somerset’s stunning coastline is within easy reach, from fossil hunting at Kilve to traditional beach days at Blue Anchor, Minehead, and Weston-super-Mare.
For those interested in history and legends, Glastonbury is a must-visit with its iconic Tor, mystical Abbey ruins, and unique spiritual atmosphere. Cheddar Gorge offers awe-inspiring cliffs, show caves, and of course, the birthplace of cheddar cheese. Wookey Hole is another family favourite, with its magical caves, paper mill, and family attractions. Somerset is rich in history too; visit Dunster Castle, Wells Cathedral, or take a trip to Bath for Roman baths and Georgian architecture. Foodies will love the abundance of local produce, farmers’ markets, cider makers, and cheese producers scattered throughout the region.
Whether you’re after countryside walks, coastal adventures, ancient myths, or vibrant market towns, Bishops Lydeard offers a peaceful, luxurious base from which to discover the endless treasures of Somerset. Beach 12 miles.

We booked this place due to the hot tub, the privacy and the large outdoor space for our dog. This is by far the best cottage we have ever been and the attention to detail is excellent!The house was lovely and full of character, it was clean and had everything we needed. We arrived late at night and it was really handy to have milk in the fridge for the morning coffee (it has a nespresso machine too which was a bonus for us!) This place is more than dog friendly, we have a Labrador and often dog friendly stays cater for smaller breeds, its not the case with this one! It had a large bed for our boy to use and a basket with treats, poop bags, towel and even a spare lead and a little collar batch with the host's contact number, in case your pooch gets lost.The hot tub was also by far the best one we have used. I can't fault this place or the host in any way. Karen (the host) was lovely, she made sure we settled in ok and even gave us some tips regarding the local area. Despite the stormy weather we managed to enjoy the place fully as well as the surrounding area. This is the perfect place for a much needed R&R!We can't wait to come back!

Great place, garden is fantastic for relaxing & also playing with the dogs.(paddock is an added bonus) The hot tub is great to relax in at the end of the day but it does need a privacy screen from the houses opposite. There are some deep steps both inside & outside the property. With the house being of an age some floors are unlevel and deep steps so careful when walking especially down to the upstairs bathroom & double bedroom. Some bits need attention. Karen the host is lovely, very helpful & has thought of all things you need within the house and the cake was a lovely surprise x

Had a wonderful 2 weeks in Pete’s Place - very home from home with all equipment needed - Hot tub was the finishing touch, we used this every day. The garden was perfect for us as we had beautiful weather and everything was so relaxing and comfortable- Bedrooms and bathroom have quaint features and again very comfortable. Karen thank you for allowing us to stay in your fabulous cottage we will be returning ! If you book this 5 star property you will not be disappointed.
