Holemoor Stables sleeps 18 for large group holidays in the West Country. There’s plenty of space, an indoor pool and a games room, so it’s perfect for holidays and low-key celebrations with friends and family. The setting is private and peaceful, tucked away on a private estate in the South Somerset countryside. From the doorstep you'll find footpaths and bridleways to explore, and winding lanes that lead to villages where you can stop for lunch in a country pub.

Pack a picnic and head over to Castle Neroche or Ham Hill Country Park where the views are panoramic. For days by the sea, the Jurassic Coast is about 30 minutes’drive away; Charmouth is great for fossil hunting and rockpooling, at Lyme Regis you can play on the sands, visit Dinosaurland Fossil Museum in town, or stroll out to the Marine Aquarium at the end of the harbour. Book a mackerel fishing trip at Beer, or take your walking boots and stroll over the clifftops on the South West Coast Path to Branscombe for cream tea at the beach cafe.

Spend a morning browsing around one of the little market towns - Ilminster is charming, or at Langport you can stroll along the River Parrett and stop for a bite to eat at a waterside café. Go to the county town of Taunton when the Farmer’s Market is on in the high street, tie in a visit to the Museum of Somerset, a high ropes challenge at Vivary Golf & Adventure Centre, or ten pin bowling on the outskirts of town.

And if you have a thing for historic houses and gorgeous gardens – well, you’re in luck because Forde Abbey, Barrington Court and Montacute House are all within a short drive. Only a little further is Stourhead, a spectacular sight in the autumn when the colours are reflected in the lakes. Take the kids to Haynes Motor Museum, Fleet Air Arm Museum or Wildwood Escot, or check out our Things To Do pages for more inspiration.

If you’re here for a special celebration you might want to hire private caterers from our Extras page, If you’d like to go out to eat there’s a good choice of restaurants, farm shop cafes and country pubs in these parts. The Five Dials at Horton and the Cotley Inn at Wambrook come highly recommended, or for fine dining, try The Tytherleigh Arms. Within easy walking distance The Haymaker at Wadeford is good for hearty homemade pub food.

The owners of Holemoor Stables live on the estate, so they're about to help with anything you need. And get this - they used to run a racing stable here, which turned out a Welsh Grand National winner called Kendal Cavalier in the 90's. Now they turn out happy guests who come back year after year - and it's easy to see why. Holemoor Stables has everything you need to keep you smiling all through your holidays; come and make the happiest memories. Book today!
