This lovely property is immersed in the safari park and provides an extraordinary opportunity to gaze at zebras, ostriches, wildebeest and a whole host of other beautiful creatures whilst enjoying a morning coffee on your terrace. A wonderful choice for couples seeking a safari experience without the long plane ride.
Keeper's Cottage is beautifully presented and has a 19th century explorer feel to it. On the ground floor you'll find a cosy living room with comfortable Victorian style décor and a cosy wood burner where you can unwind on chilly evenings with a glass of wine. Or why not spend some time playing a game of chess surrounded by old books, a world globe, curious, interesting ornaments and some pretty plants? This space is very atmospheric and transports you to a different time. Curl up with a good book by the fire or enjoy the view from the window.
The kitchen is a more modern affair with white counter tops and pleasantly tiled walls. It is spacious and comes fully equipped for the preparation of delicious meals, which you can enjoy at the round dining table which seats four.
When it's time for bed, head upstairs to your fabulous zebra themed bedroom where you'll find a luxurious super-king size bed with crisp sheets, thick pillows and duvet and a warm blanket. The animal print cushions are particularly charming. The wallpaper has a repeating zebra pattern that matches perfectly with the black bedside tables and monochrome lamps, yet there is still the feel of an opulent Victorian setting with antique furnishings and character to spare.
After a delightful night's rest head into the ensuite for a long hot shower before making your way back down to the kitchen for your first coffee.
On a clear morning you might like to head out on to the terrace and enjoy that coffee with the incredible panoramic view of the safari park and all of its inhabitants! Nestled on the east side of the estate, you'll be overlooking the East African Reserve. How often can you say that you began your day in the UK zebra spotting? And in the summer months giraffes graze alongside the zebras, ostriches and wildebeest. Beyond the East African Reserve you can see the Monkey Jungle and the camel enclosure. It's a unique and exciting experience.
As a guest at Longleat you'll have free entrance to all of the attractions, and discounts at the various restaurants and shops across the estate. There's a wonderful lookout point called Heaven's Gate where you can enjoy incredible views, and if you fancy a picnic head to Shear Water, a huge lake nestled within the forest's woodland.
Longleat sits on the border of Wiltshire and Somerset so in addition to all that the park has to offer, you'll find some stunning country walks and cosy pubs just a short distance from the Estate. For days out head to Bath for the spa, shops and wonderful bars. Or head to the market town of Frome which is packed with independent shops and excellent places to eat.
