Location

Quab Lane is a very quiet rural lane that winds north from the village of Wedmore. It is rarely used apart from by dog walkers. Wedmore is the 'jewel in the crown of Somerset', arguably its most desirable village.

The village first school, nursery, playing fields, cricket pitch, tennis club, and bowls club are all just around the corner along with the popular sports bar and function room - The Post and Wicket. The rest of the facilities that Wedmore offers are in the other direction, including various excellent local shops, cafes, Church, and three pubs, and a restaurant

Cheddar, Wells, Bristol (and Bristol Airport), Taunton and Bath are not far away for more extensive facilities, but people tend to find Wedmore ticks most of the boxes.
