One Hundred Acres Hero

One Hundred Acres The South West

Escape to a Somerset idyll

This is the Somerset you dream of; honey-stone villages, rolling hills, and meadows of wildflowers. And this is the holiday home you dream of; windows framing the views, sociable spaces and quiet corners, and a luxury indoor swimming pool.

One Hundred Acres is an exquisitely restored cider press with a boho cottage vibe and surrounded by The Quantocks, Exmoor and the Blackdown Hills. At the heart of the house, the 25m open-plan kitchen gives you line of sight to the swimming pool and incorporates a light-filled dining area. Here, after easy-going meals, you’ll want to linger over coffee as you throw open the bi-fold doors to the garden and parkland beyond. Al fresco meals are relaxed too, with a long table under a covered terrace, a Big Green Egg barbecue and a firepit. For quieter moments, seek out one of the many cosy seating areas, from the kitchen snug to the cinema and games room, where you can watch movies or play snooker beneath the high-raftered ceiling. Outside, find secluded sunlit spots to sit with a book, discover the tennis court hidden behind wildflowers, or gather in the internal courtyard for ping pong, Jenga or down time on the rattan sun loungers. The 10 bedrooms have super king-size beds, which can be made into singles, with pretty, patterned headboards. Cottage windows offer views of the countryside and there’s a mix of shared and private bathrooms.

One Hundred Acres puts you in the heart of rural Somerset, but within a drive of unspoilt coastal villages. If you seek luxury, peace and privacy for your family or friends’ getaway, this is the house for you.

What we think

‘Hidden gem’ is a phrase probably used too often in the world of holiday houses, and yet it’s hard to think of one better for One Hundred Acres. The astonishing loveliness of the place – its deeply comfortable entertaining spaces and indoor pool with views to die for – is all somehow camouflaged into the verdant Somerset surrounds. A magical place and a perfect big house experience.
