Make use of one of the three quirky bathrooms, don your finest apparel, and meet your companions in the church. A vaulted living room with gothic windows overlooking the village and open countryside of the Mendip Hills, with views as far as the mystical Glastonbury Tor and the Isle of Avalon. This living area, with its glass wood-burning stove, manages to be both huge and cosy at the same time, and is the perfect spot to gather with a drink and marvel at how well this sort of living suits you. Lounge on the sofa or take yourself off to a comfy armchair in the corner to relax and unwind.
Catch the morning sun in the modern, fully-equipped, 44ft kitchen and cook a feast for (or with) your loved ones. This is a lovely clean, bright, social area for less formal dining and a perfect place to sip your morning coffee.
When you ascend the open-plan double staircase you'll find a spectacular banqueting gallery, with three original stained-glass windows, and a long elegant table, perfect for a grandiose dinner, or fish and chips with fizz.
With plenty of nooks and crannies, you can choose to throw yourself into the party, or take a relaxing minute on your own and enjoy the views. The place is open and airy without feeling cold or impersonal, and the colourful art dotted about adds a modern edge to this beautiful old church.
One of the bedrooms also doubles up into a fantastic cinema room, offering you the chance to enjoy a movie night or box set marathon on the big screen smart TV!
Outside you'll find a pretty decked courtyard complete with a covered and coveted hot tub for a luxurious soak.
