There are three interlinking bedrooms, offering flexible living arrangements, along with a family bathroom and a separate family shower room. The property is steel framed and set under a tin roof.

The market town of Langport (6 miles) offers a more comprehensive range of facilities, including Huish Episcopi Academy with adjoining leisure centre with facilities for all ages. Taunton the County town is 6 -7 miles distant with an extensive range of shopping, scholastic and recreational facilities, including three noted public schools, two colleges, a major hospital, and multiple restaurants, bars, leisure centres and supermarkets.
