Situation - Mrs Halletts Cottage is situated in an enviable location towards the end of this no-through road. The village is highly desirable and benefits from a good range of local amenities including post office, village stores, public house, primary school, church and active village hall. The village is surrounded by beautiful open countryside and also sits at the foot of Ham Hill Country Park with its extensive footpaths. Crewkerne is within 4.5 miles where an excellent range of day-to-day facilities can be found, including a Waitrose supermarket and a mainline railway station to Exeter and London Waterloo. The larger town of Yeovil is within 7 miles where an even greater selection of facilities can be found.
