Overview
Step Inside
Step into Florian and let the world melt away. This beautiful cabin is light, airy, and effortlessly stylish - every corner thoughtfully designed for ultimate relaxation. Soft pastel hues, luxurious linens, and carefully chosen touches create an inviting space that feels immediately like home.
The sleek, modern kitchen has everything you need to whip up romantic suppers or weekend breakfasts, best enjoyed at the picturesque window table with views of rolling hills and grazing sheep. As dusk settles, draw the curtains and snuggle up on the plush sofa with a board game and glass of wine, the flicker of the wood burner casting a golden glow.
A sleek bathroom sits between the living area and the bedroom with sliding doors on either side, where you’ll find a walk-in shower, WC, sink and heated towel rail.
When it’s time to rest, sink into the sumptuous king-size bed, wrapped in plump pillows and luxurious linen. A large window at the foot of the bed frames dreamy countryside views, perfect for slow mornings with breakfast in bed. At night, lie back and gaze through the stargazing skylight - this secluded escape is free from light pollution, offering a truly magical view of the night sky.
Outdoors
The outdoor space at Florian is just as enchanting as the interior. Throw open the bi-fold doors and step onto a spacious deck with panoramic views across peaceful, sheep-dotted fields. The generous garden is lined with wildflowers and festoon lights, offering space for your pup to roam freely and for you to unwind in nature.
Enjoy spectacular golden-hour sunsets from the rustic wooden armchairs, or take a long soak in the outdoor urban bathtub under a canopy of stars, while fluffy robes await. Whether it’s a bracing cold plunge to start the day or a toasty moonlit soak to end it, feel the soul-soothing benefits of alfresco dips.
Explore
Tucked in a tranquil corner of Somerset, Florian is perfectly placed for exploring the natural beauty and charm of the area. Just a stone’s throw from the picturesque village of Wedmore, you’ll find welcoming country pubs, The Swan and The George, serving hearty dishes and local ales. Meander through the picturesque lanes and scenic paths that wind through the countryside - perfect for a post-lunch amble or stretching your legs with the pup in tow.
For those who crave adventure, head to nearby Cheddar for a wander through the dramatic landscapes of Cheddar Gorge, or set off for a stomp around the Mendip Hills National Landscape, where sweeping panoramas meet peaceful trails. For nature lovers, a day at Bridgwater Bay National Nature Reserve offers wild beauty and abundant birdlife. Treat yourself with a pitstop at Wilkins Cider Farm in Mudgley, where you can sample traditional Somerset cider straight from the source, or sip your way through the creative cocktail menu at On The Rocks.
If you fancy venturing further afield, the golden sands of Burnham-on-Sea are just a short drive away for salt-kissed beach walks along the shore. For breathtaking views, don’t miss Brent Knoll, a local landmark offering panoramic vistas across the Somerset Levels.
