SITUATION

Shipham is an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty (AONB) and a highly sought after village, nestled in the picturesque Somerset countryside. It is well served by first, middle and senior schools and is much sought after by those commuting to Bristol, as it offers all the advantages of rural living with many bridleways and footpaths, including the West Mendip Way which crosses the parish providing ready access to the hills and Mendip plateau, where there are extensive views across the Bristol Channel to the Welsh coast and Brecon Beacons beyond. Indeed, it is very well positioned for local transport links and the M5 motorway which is accessible via junction 20 at Clevedon, junction 21 at St Georges and junction 22 at Edithmead. Village facilities are available, including butcher/stores, garage, public house and further shopping facilities at nearby Winscombe and Cheddar. The new village hall (with its stage, sports hall, function rooms and kitchen) is a popular centre for a broad range of community events and activities for all ages. Private sector schooling is close by at Sidcot and the Downs School at Wraxall is within easy reach, as are Wells Cathedral School and Millfield. In the state sector, Kings of Wessex School () is nearby and for sports and recreational amenities, Churchill Academy is a drive away. There is also an excellent village primary school. The surrounding area is excellent riding country and is sure to appeal to equestrian enthusiasts and walkers. There is an international airport at Lulsgate and access to the mainline railway station at Yatton.

DIRECTIONS

Taking the A38 south from the Churchill traffic lights continue up the hill passing the turning on your left for Rowberrow, take the next left into Shipham just after the petrol station. Just after the entrance for the village hall on your right you will find Beech Road on your left. Number 30 is the second to last property at the top on the right hand side where you will see a Debbie Fortune For Sale board. You are welcome to park on the drive. What3words///obtain.winks.recital
