When a house has its own orchard, stables, manège and planning permission for two holiday lets, it's not so much "move-in ready" as "lifestyle incoming."

This seven-bedroom setup in Mudgley, just outside Wedmore, looks like it fell out of a rustic daydream — if your daydream includes a self-contained cottage, sweeping views of the Somerset Levels and the distant silhouette of Glastonbury Tor doing its best impression of a movie backdrop. Full listing here, via Sandersons.

The main house is all thick stone walls, exposed beams and an Aga that could heat a small village. The kitchen spills out to a south-facing terrace so you can sip something local while pretending you've finally written that novel.

There are three reception rooms, four double bedrooms, and yes, every single one of them has a view worth bragging about.

Next door — but not too next — is the cottage: two or three bedrooms, two receptions, and its own front door, perfect for grumpy teenagers, cheerful in-laws or your most lucrative Airbnb fantasy. It's got the same period charm and tall ceilings, just with a little more independence (and less risk of awkward breakfast encounters).

Outside, the six acres are divided into garden, paddocks, a meadow, orchard, pond and even a fenced allotment — because this is Somerset, and we take vegetables seriously.

There's a stable yard with six stables, a barn, tractor shed and a manège, plus a second paddock across the lane, because one just wouldn't do. Planning permission is already in place for two holiday lets in the stables, meaning you can earn while you ride.

And if you ever get bored (unlikely), the village of Wedmore is two miles away with pubs, shops, a café or three and an annual beer festival that makes integration suspiciously easy. Wells, Glastonbury, Cheddar and the M5 are all nearby, but frankly — with views like these — staying home becomes a competitive sport. Take a closer look here at Sandersons.
