Coach House In The Picturesque Village Of Mere

Coach House is situated in the beautiful town of Mere, ideally located behind the medieval Castle Hill where Mere Castle once stood. With shops, pubs, parks and rolling countryside all within walking distance The Coach House is ideal for your holiday. Situated in the old part of the town our nearest pub is a 2 minute walk away, and a quick walk up Castle Hill will enable you to take in the breathtaking views of the surrounding three counties (Wiltshire, Dorset and Somerset). There are many attractions within an hours drive from the property. Take a trip into Salisbury and visit one of England's best Cathedrals, or submerge yourself in the world of Austen by spending a day in Bath with its stunning Georgian Architecture and the famous Roman Baths. A 20 minute drive will take you to the impressive Longleat (and safari park), home to the Marquess of Bath, and there are numerous National Trust properties nearby, (the closest being Stourhead) - many of which have been used as film locations and all steeped in English history and charm.

Praktisch gelegenes, sehr hübsches Haus

Wir haben die perfekte Lage des Coach House genutzt, um von dort einige Sehenswürdigkeiten Südenglands zu besuchen und nach den anstrengenden Tage uns abends dort zu erholen. Es ist sehr geschmackvoll eingerichtet und alles was man braucht ist vorhanden. Ein super Ferienhaus, sehr zu empfehlen.

History Festival Visit

We stayed for 2 nights whilst in the area for the Chalke History Festival. The Coach House was perfect for our needs and the village of Mere was great for evening meals choices and after dinner drinks. Helen, our host, met us as we arrived and gave us a very warm welcome. Would definitely stay again when in the area.
