Situated just 20 minutes from Bath Wells and Glastonbury in the market town of Midsomer Norton The Old Priory is reputed to be one of the oldest houses in Somerset with records showing that it was established in 1170. This historically significant building was an Augustinian Priory in early medieval times later being seized by Henry VIII and gifted to Christchurch College Oxford. Today the ancient honeyed stonework and a beautiful walled garden greet you upon entering the gravelled driveway. Within this Grade II building many original architectural features are retained including large inglenook fireplaces flagstone floors and original oak beamed ceilings. A curvy flight of stairs within a Somerset staircase turret lead to the upper floors and heavy iron studded doors open to beautiful rooms which were refurbished in 2014/2015. The six individual bedrooms share a style which reflects the charm and atmosphere of the old combined with the comfort and convenience of modern day living.
