The Manor House is set back behind a low stone boundary wall and lawned front garden. To one side is a barn that has been converted to provide garaging for two cars plus a self-contained annexe for an elderly relative with separate, additional guest accommodation in the roof space above. Beyond the barn is a heated swimming pool set within a walled courtyard and covered by a telescopic pool enclosure. Immediately behind the house is a part-walled, outside dining area overlooking the full length of the house's formal garden and grounds. The garden has a level lawn fringed by deep, richly planted borders providing lush, rich colour throughout the growing season. Stone walling links to the rear of the house and barn to create a sheltered, secluded environment for the garden, which is further protected by a stand of mature, broadleaf trees along the river bank and a mixed orchard of dwarf
apple, plum and medlar trees. Beside the orchard and overlooking the Brue is a Summerhouse sited in the shade of a magnificent walnut tree. Beyond the orchard and leading to the point where the Brue and Pitt meet is an area of mixed woodland screening the photovoltaic panels.
Bruton town centre 1.3 miles (Paddington 2.25 hours), Castle Cary 3.5 miles, A303 6.2 miles, Gillingham station 11.5 miles (Waterloo 2 hours), Junction 23 (Bridgwater) M5 27.5 miles, Bristol Airport 30 miles, Exeter Airport 55 miles. (Distances and time approximate).
The Manor House is situated in a lovely position in the peaceful hamlet of Cole, which is set in the valley of the River Brue about one and a half miles from the centre of the attractive, popular town of Bruton. Although one of the smallest towns in England, Bruton has excellent amenities that cater for most day to day requirements. These include several restaurants and cafés, two pubs, a butcher, artisan bakery, four mini-supermarkets, petrol station, pharmacy and Post Office. The town also has a vet, doctor's surgery and dentist. For wider requirements Bath, Frome and Yeovil are all within a reasonable driving distance. The town has a regular rail service to Paddington taking 2.25 hours and Bristol & Exeter Airports are about an hour and an hour and a half's drive away respectively. The town also offers a choice of schools both from the private and state sectors. These include Sexeys School (state
secondary boarding) and Kings Bruton, with Hazelgrove, All Hallows, Millfield, Wells
Cathedral School, the Sherborne schools and Downside all within a 10-mile radius.
