Pear Tree Cottage, Mark

Pear Tree Cottage is a converted stone barn in Shapwick, Somerset. Original beams and exposed stonework run throughout this single-storey barn. The vaulted ceilings and traditional barn doors give you a real sense of the building's agricultural past. You'll find open countryside views across the Somerset Levels from every window.

The barn sits in a peaceful rural setting surrounded by fields and wetlands. Farmland stretches out in all directions. This is proper Somerset countryside with big skies and flat landscapes.

Inside you get two bedrooms sleeping four guests. The main living space is open plan with the kitchen flowing into the dining and sitting areas. Both bedrooms have their own bathrooms. The oak-framed structure and original stone walls make every room feel special.

Glastonbury sits 6 miles away (15 minutes). The Tor and Abbey are must-sees. Cheddar Gorge is 12 miles away (20 minutes). Westhay Moor Nature Reserve is 2 miles away (5 minutes) for birdwatching. Wells Cathedral is 10 miles away (20 minutes).

Pear Tree Cottage works brilliantly for couples wanting a rural Somerset escape in a genuine barn conversion with bags of original character.
