Architect's Note

At the top of the house sits a distinctive attic bedroom, offering a completely unique retreat-like atmosphere. Exposed stone walls, a private en-suite, and a separate dressing area create a strong sense of privacy and character, while an additional tucked-away sleeping nook with a single bed and sofa makes it especially versatile for families. The space feels bright and airy thanks to its high ceilings and lower-set windows, though it can become warm in summer, so ventilation is advised. Across the first floor, the bedroom accommodation continues with a generous principal suite featuring a large sleeping area, walk-in dressing room, and bathroom with a freestanding bath. Elegant window seating and traditional design details add charm, balanced by modern comforts. Two further bedrooms each benefit from their own en-suite bathrooms, while the remaining rooms are supported by additional shared facilities, ensuring ease and convenience for all guests. Every bedroom enjoys calming views over the gardens and is light, comfortable, and well proportioned. The oldest part of the manor is accessed via a striking spiral stone staircase that rises through the original structure, forming one of the home's most impressive architectural features. This leads into a grand entrance hall that blends historic character with the relaxed warmth of a country residence. From here, the layout opens into multiple living spaces, designed to offer both comfort and flexibility throughout the stay. There are two main sitting areas in addition to the open connection with the kitchen. One is a cosy, informal lounge designed for relaxed evenings, while the other provides a peaceful secondary living space overlooking the gardens—ideal for quiet moments or unwinding as a group. Together, they offer a comfortable balance of shared social space and relaxed retreat areas. At the heart of the manor is a spacious open-plan kitchen designed for easy living and entertaining. Fully equipped and thoughtfully arranged, it is centred around an electric Aga, known for its gentle, consistent heat and ability to keep food warm until serving. It acts as a natural gathering point within the home, perfect for group stays and shared meals. Week Farm Manor is perfectly positioned to enjoy both peaceful countryside living and some of the best attractions in the Bath area. Just a short drive away, the historic city of Bath offers a wealth of culture and heritage, including the iconic Roman Baths, the elegant Royal Crescent, and the relaxing Thermae Bath Spa, where guests can unwind in natural thermal waters overlooking the city. Closer to the property, the surrounding Somerset countryside offers beautiful walks, rolling landscapes, and traditional villages to explore at a relaxed pace. A highlight nearby is the much-loved The Whitsheaf Inn in Combe Hay, a charming country pub known for its welcoming atmosphere, seasonal dishes, and picturesque setting—perfect for a relaxed lunch or evening meal after a day of exploring. For those looking to venture further, the mysterious Stonehenge and the family-friendly Longleat Safari Park make excellent day trips, while the nearby Cotswolds offer postcard-perfect villages, boutique shops, and scenic countryside drives. Whether you're seeking culture, nature, or great food, the area surrounding Week Farm Manor offers something for every kind of stay.
