About the property

You’ll feel a million miles away from anywhere at this tranquil retreat in the beautiful Somerset countryside as you gaze at far-reaching views towards Chew Valley Lake and the Mendip Hills AONB. However, Bristol and Bath are within easy reach for when the thrills of city restaurants, shops and nightlife call.


Hosting up to sixteen guests, Shepherd's Lake View is the perfect holiday home for family and friends of all ages to spend a memorable time together, whether relaxing and enjoying views of the surrounding green space or partying the evening away. With two sociable living areas, a huge garden with a heated hot tub, a barbecue area and a games room with a full-size pool table, there are plenty of ways to unwind and stay entertained.

The space

The design at Shepherd's Lake View, both inside and outside, has been carefully thought out to ensure that there is plenty of space to socialise, as well as find solitude when required.


The entrance hallway has a cloakroom and separate WC, If you continue straight on and you’ll find the kitchen/dining/living area where the layout enables your group to come together to cook and be sociable at the same time so that nobody feels left out.


The kitchen is equipped with everything you will desire to cook up a feast and entertain in style including an induction hob, combi microwave, two toasters, a fridge/freezer, dishwasher, Quooker boiling water tap and three wine coolers. There are bar stools around the kitchen island which is a great place for informal dining, whilst the main dining area comfortably seats sixteen.


The living area with comfy sofas and chairs has full-length windows offering both incredible natural light and superb views across the landscaped grounds and Chew Valley Lake, while the cosy TV room also has full-length windows, as well as a 52" widescreen TV and wood burner.


On warm days open up the patio doors that lead onto the large patio area where there’s a six-seat hot tub, seating and sun loungers - it’s the perfect spot for catching some rays, enjoying sundowners or dining al fresco.


If all this wasn’t enough, there’s also a games room with a bar and a full-size pool table where grown-ups can have some fun and a friendly competition perhaps.


There are four bedrooms in total. Bedroom 1 has four single beds and an en suite bathroom with a bath and separate shower. Bedroom 2 also has four single beds, plus a bunk bed and an en suite shower room. Bedroom 3 has two single beds and Bedroom 4 has four single beds; these two rooms share the family shower room. All the single beds are zip and link, meaning they can be converted into a 6-foot double on request. All bedrooms also offer full-length windows and views of either the courtyard or the lake.

If you love the sound of this place but need more bedrooms, Shepherd's Lake View can be booked with the neighbouring property, Shepherd's Lodge, which sleeps a further ten guests.
