Built in the late 1880s, this former coach house and has been fully renovated into a comfortable holiday cottage. Adjoining our property, it combines original features with modern convenience including en-suite to both bedrooms, fitted kitchen and Wi-Fi. Located on the outskirts of the village of Street nr Glastonbury it’s ideally located to explore Somerset and the South West region. Less than a mile from centre of Street and local pubs & restaurants, indoor & outdoor pools, Strode theatre, Clarks Outlet Village and Millfield School. Local attractions include Glastonbury, Wells, Wookey Hole, Cheddar Gorge, Fleet Air Arm museum and a little further afield Stonehenge, Longleat, City of Bath and Weston Super Mare.
There is a National Trust walk just a few minutes by foot from the cottage doorstep. Here you will find Collard Hill, which is a conservation area for the rare Giant Blue Butterfly with adults flying mid-June until late July. Shapwick Heath National Nature Reserve and Avalon Marshes Centre with visitor information, café, craft shop, replica historic buildings, all managed by Natural England, is less than a 15 minutes car drive.
Popular with guests are the two comfortable en-suite bedrooms, but also a third downstairs shower room that can be used by sofa bed users. A camp/folding bed and bedding can also be provided on request for a child, which can be situated comfortably in the master bedroom. It is possible to situate in the second bedroom, but it will limit access to cupboards and drawers. The lounge is spacious and the heating can be set to be cosy in the coldest of months to make the cottage a welcoming environment all year round, whether using as a base to explore the area or just relax away from home.

We have never stayed in such a well equipped holiday cottage - which also managed to remain uncluttered, with enough space for us to relax after a day's activities.
The location really suited us - a cottage in the countryside yet with Street within walking distance (although a little far for little legs).
We found plenty to do in the local area, including walks, the Greenbank swimming pool, visiting Glastonbury Tor, walks round Avalon Marshes and things like Longleat a bit further afield.

My wife & I had a very special month-long stay at Kirsty and Andy's beautiful cottage. It has everything you need for a for a great home base in gorgeous Somerset. The cottage is warm and cozy but at the same time was spacious enough to easily accommodate two of our adult daughters and their spouses and our 18 mo. granddaughter, who had great fun watching the sheep, playing ball in the large garden and getting to meet their dogs, Archie and Winston.
This is a great location for very easy access to Glastonbury and Wells and the surrounding countryside. We had many day-trips visiting the abundant range of stately homes, listed gardens, ruined abbeys and churches, as well as coast walks, the Jurassic Coast and of course Cheddar, for the amazing caves and cheese!
Kirsty and Andy are fantastic hosts! They live just next door and are there to make sure you have all you need and provided us with many helpful suggestions for places to go and how to get there.
We would love to have the opportunity to return for another visit.

Leigh Nook is such a wonderful little cottage which is not only stunning but very well equipped. The master bedroom is such a cosy space with a wonderful bathtub with a window above looking out to the stars. The bed was so very comfortable with gorgeous high quality bedding, it was very difficult to leave! It was great to have a fully equipped kitchen for cooking our own meals, too. We loved sitting on the table in the lounge with the view over the fields in the morning.
The views from the garden are really lovely and peaceful. It's a short drive to our favourite Glastonbury town, with a bus stop a 15 minute walk away whick takes you to the centre. There are some lovely shops and restaurants in Street itself. You won't regret booking here, it's such great value for money!
The hosts Andrew and Kirsty were lovely and friendly and we wouldn't hesitate to come back to enjoy the space and surroundings again. Thank you guys! We couldn't find a pen to write in the comments book but we had a wonderful time!

The cottage is beautifully presented and in a very peaceful setting yet within easy reach of many lovely places to visit. Kirsty was very quick to reply to messages and although cottage is attached to owners residence it is still very private. A lovely place to stay we thoroughly enjoyed our time there. Thank you

Had a fantastic stay! The cottage is clean, comfortable and cosy, it is a home away from home and equipped with everything you need. Lovely and spacious too. Great location to explore and not far from Longleat Safari. Owners are so friendly and on hand to help should you need it. 5** would love to return. Thank you :)

Kirsty and andrew are two of the most loveliest hosts we have ever met, nothing was too much trouble when our dates had to be changed several times.
The cottage is spotlessly clean and has everything you need a real home from home. We enjoyed every minute of our holiday and wouldn't hesitate to book again.

We were 2 couples who stayed here for a long weekend. We really enjoyed our stay and wished that we could have stayed longer. The cottage looks small from the outside but it is very roomy. We loved all the bathrooms including the one downstairs. All the beds were very comfortable with quality linens and towels provided. Great water pressure in the showers, didn't try the lovely big bath in the master suite as it was too warm for a bath. The owners were very friendly and helpful and their 2 labradors Archie & WInston were a delight. The road outside could be noisy and busy at times but we soon got used to it and it didn't disturb us. The local village of Street has all the supermarkets you could ever need including the budget ones and there are plenty of takeaways, fish and chip shops and restaurants. Clarks Village is also worth a look if you like shopping. We had a great stay here and would definitely stay here again if we were in the area.

We really enjoyed our stay at Leigh Nook Cottage. It is well laid out and had everything we needed. The master suite in particular is a really comfortable space. Communication with our hosts was quick and easy beforehand and relaxed and friendly during our stay. Street town centre, with a reasonable selection of bars and restaurants, is a lesiurely 25 minue walk. If you book to stay here you won't be disappointed.

This cottage is just as you see in the online photos. It was spacious, clean, warm (we were there in early October), the beds, sofas etc. were comfortable. We were able to have family members visit the cottage and spend the day with us, and still socially distanced as the lounge/dining room is very large and has two sofas. We rearranged the room slightly, moved the kitchen table into the dining area, and used the two tables for the four of us. Kirsty and Andy were friendly and very helpful. The ‘check in’ was simple, a combination key safe outside the door. The house had been empty for at least a week before we arrived, and there was hand sanitiser by the front door. Also cleaning products in the kitchen, including anti bacterial spray. The cottage is in a lovely, quiet spot, surrounded by fields, but is on the edge of Street, so you can walk into the town if you want to, although you probably do need a car if you want to explore the area. All in all a lovely cottage, we enjoyed our two weeks there, and if we go back to the area to see family, we would stay here again.

5 star cottage in central Somerset location
The owners were very pleasant and welcoming, I would say the photos do not do this place justice, everything is immaculate, very VERY clean, but what really impressed me was the quality of the whole house. The 3 bathrooms were all fitted out to a really high standard, the towels were plush 5 star hotel type, beds all excellent and comfortable, everything seemed brand new, big modern tv and very smart comfy sofas. We used the house as a base for exploring Somerset for which it was ideal. Glastonbury was a 5 minute car drive away, and if you want to shop the designer outlet in the village is huge and excellent. Fab house, great value.
