Location Map

Once part of a former ale house dating back to the 16th century, Bell Corner is a charming cottage in Milverton, an Outstanding Heritage Settlement within a Conservation Area. With views overlooking the impressive Church of St Michael, Bell Corner has many traditional features including wooden beams, cob walls, slate floors and deep sills with window seats. The lounge is stylish and comfortable with bold furniture, colourful rugs and a wall-mounted plasma television. The focal point of the room is a striking fireplace with woodburner. A gas fuelled Aga takes pride of place in the bespoke kitchen, which leads to a secluded patio also accessible via a side gate and gravel footpath. A wooden, winding staircase leads to the bedrooms, all of which have been decorated with flair and elegance, and two designer bathrooms featuring exposed wooden beams have been innovatively created within the eaves.

There are several traditional village shops and pubs within walking distance of Bell Corner, and Taunton with its excellent shopping centre, restaurants and leisure facilities, is only eight miles away. Exmoor, the Quantocks and the Blackdown Hills are a short drive away, along with beaches at Minehead, Dunster and Blue Anchor Bay. Fishing and various water sports can be enjoyed at Wimbleball Lake and other popular attractions such as Dunster Castle, Cheddar Gorge, Wookey Hole and Cricket St Thomas are fun days out for all the family.
