Located in the lovely rural village of Kingston Seymour, currently North Somerset's Best Kept Small Village, we offer English Tourism Council 3-star rated self-catering holiday accommodation in our two 300 year old barn-conversion holiday cottages. Each cottage provides accommodation for up to 5 people. The best news is ... rates include free fishing for residents.
We are also a well established coarse fishing lake complex just 4.5 miles from Junction 20 of the M5 and have a Camping and Caravanning Club Certificated Campsite.
Property Description: The Six House (so named because you could milk six cows in it) and The Loose House (used for calving a cow) both have exactly the same layout comprising: Shared entrance porch to front door entering into hallway with a lockable cupboard for outdoor clothing, boots, etc leading to shared utility room with washer/dryer and fridge which can be used to store bait (if you are a fisherman). A secure shed is also available for storage of fishing equipment. We would respectfully ask that no bait, outdoor fishing clothing or fishing gear is stored inside the cottages.
Downstairs: open plan lounge with TV/DVD, comfortable seating for five people, coffee table, dining area with dining table and five chairs; kitchen with single oven/grill, gas hob, dishwasher, microwave, fridge (not for bait please), kettle, toaster, etc; bathroom with toilet, sink and bath with shower attachment.
Upstairs: a cosy bedroom with one double and one single bed and galleried landing with a further two single beds.
Outside: There is a shared courtyard area with picnic bench seating for each cottage. You are welcome to wander over the stile into the orchard in front of the cottages if you wish. Ample parking is available.
General: Unfortunately we do not accept pets either in the cottages or at the lakeside, however we can provide contact details for a boarding kennel in the neighbouring village of Kenn.
We would advise that, for the benefit of all our customers and to reduce the risk of fire, our cottages are no-smoking zones - we appreciate your co-operation in this matter. If you wish to smoke outside, we would ask that you please dispose of your cigarette ends carefully.
Gas-fired central heating, electricity, hot water, bed linen and Free Fishing are all included in the cost of your holiday.
Outdoor Facilities: Yes. Gravelled courtyard area with wooden tables/bench seats, reclaimed ox-wheel seating per cottage. Access over stile into small orchard area. Adjacent to our five coarse fishing lakes.
Local Services: Small cafe on site. Lots of information of places to eat/drink/visit is provided in the cottages.
Directions
From M5 Junction 20 (Clevedon/Nailsea):
Follow signs for the B3133 for Yatton. Follow this road through the village of Kenn. The main road bears left on top of an old railway bridge - Kingston Seymour is signposted here to the right, there is also a sign for 'Fishing Lakes'. This is Lampley Road. Follow the road over the motorway and down into the centre of the village. Take the sharp right turning into Back Lane, Bullock Farm Fishing Lakes are signposted from the village centre. Approximately half a mile further on you will see Bullocks Lane, ignore this and take the next turning on the right clearly signposted for Bullock Farm Fishing Lakes.
From M5 Junction 21 (Weston-super-Mare):
Follow signs for the A370 towards Congresbury and Bristol. In Congresbury, at the second set of traffic lights, turn left for the B3133, Yatton. Drive through Yatton and eventually you will come to a large pub on your left called the Bridge Inn. The road bears right on top of an old railway bridge but Kingston Seymour forks off to the left - fishing lakes are signposted, follow instructions as above.
By Train:
We are just 2.5 miles from Yatton railway station which is on the main Paddington-Penzance line.
