The cottage is hidden right in the centre of Taunton's independent quarter, seconds from the shops, pubs and cricket ground. You have use of the entire house and well kept outside area. The house is charming, quirky and bright. It is a listed building, so it is not sleek and new, it is charming & full of character. It is definitely more home than a hotel!!
