Jurston Barn - Somerset

Jurston Barn has seen a stunning transformation from its former days as a 17th century grain barn and cowshed to spacious light-filled holiday accommodation for 12 people, with an amazing 10m indoor swimming pool, a hot tub and children’s play area.  6 en suite bedrooms, a huge kitchen/diner and sitting room/games room, and a private location in Somerset make this a great choice for big family holidays, celebrations, hen weekends and self-catering corporate breaks.

The bustling market town of Wellington is within walking distance and is good for a browse, with traditional shops, supermarkets, an art deco cinema, and a lively farmers market. You’ll find several things to see and do in the locality; have a tour of the apple orchards at Sheppey’s Cider, walk up to Wellington Monument or go and explore the Blackdown Hills where you can take in the panoramic views from Culm Beacon and then go to the Culm Valley Inn for refreshments, or stroll around Otterhead Lakes followed by lunch at the Holman Clavel.

For days out there’s quite a choice; surfers should head down to the coast, to Ilfracombe or Croyde, shopaholics to Taunton or Exeter, and families, to Crealy Park or over to the Jurassic Coast for days on the beach at Lyme Regis, Charmouth, or Beer. Go fossil hunting, visit the aquarium, play crazy golf, or try a mackerel fishing trip. Head off to Exmoor to discover the hidden valleys, secret combes, and vantage points; go to the top of Dunkery Beacon, to Watersmeet and Porlock, find the quaintest tea rooms for a proper job cream tea with big fat scones and generous dollops of jam and cream.

Have a wonderful holiday in the West Country at Jurston Barn; check availability and book today.
