Rainbow Bunting in Bridgwater, Somerset

Rainbow Bunting Self-Catering

Little kids and big kids alike will be charmed by this whimsical home, nestled in the rolling Somerset countryside. Bursting with charm both inside and out, with plenty of thoughtful touches provided by the hosts, you'll fall in love with this little patch of heaven in no time at all.

In a former life, the building was a coach house, and it still retains many of its original features which sit perfectly alongside the quirky decor – think colourful bunting, patterned cushions, and cheerful wallpaper. There is plenty to keep you entertained on rainy days, from table football to the Nintendo Switch. And, when the sun shines, you can make the most of the stunning outdoor space. Kick back on a lounger by the pool while the kids run wild in the garden, complete with a willow tunnel and croquet lawn. There's even a hot tub for soaking as you admire the views, and a fire-pit where you can toast marshmallows after dark.

We don't blame you if you never want to leave this fairytale estate, but there is plenty to see and do in the surrounding countryside. The coast is just a three-minute drive away – Klive Beach is a dramatic spot with impressive cliffs. And, fans of the great outdoors are in luck as the surrounding Quantock Hills offer hiking, mountain biking, horse riding, and even caving.
