CONTEMPORARY VILLAGE HOMES

FARRIERS CLOSE, MEARE

An exclusive collection of two, three and four-bedroom contemporary village

homes in the historic village of Meare, at the heart of the beautiful Somerset

Levels.

Distinctively styled with an eye for every detail, homes at Farriers Close

feature high quality specifications throughout, intelligent layouts that

maximise living space, and the latest, energy efficient air source heating

systems; making them as convenient and comfortable to live in as they are

economical to own.

They ’re homes built to the highest technical standards by an experienced

team of craftspeople and construction experts, backed by the peace of mind

of a 10-year Premier Guarantee warranty.

Homes that offer outstanding value, made even more affordable by qualifying

for the government’s Help To Buy loan scheme, designed to help you with your

deposit to get you moving quickly.

Farriers Close is an exceptional community of imaginatively designed new

homes, in a popular village location, just a few miles from the towns of

Glastonbury and Street.

Surrounded by the stunning Somerset Levels, with a history stretching back thousands of

years, Meare is a thriving village community with a strong sense of local identity. A charming

backwater that’s just down the road from Glastonbury and Street, with excellent transport links

to places further afield, Meare is off the beaten track, but very close to everything you need.

THINGS TO SEE AND DO

The Avalon Marshes offer an evocative landscape of low-lying meadows, reed-beds and pools,

rich with wildlife, criss-crossed by waterways and ancient tracks. It’s a place to walk, cycle

and explore, with Shapwick Heath National Nature Reserve right on your doorstep. Meare’s

monastic fish house is the only one of its kind surviving in the country today.

Dominating the views for miles around, Glastonbury Tor is an enigmatic hilltop ruin wrapped in

myth and folklore, with the colourful streets and shopfronts of the town below.

Wells’ magnificent cathedral and moated Bishop’s Palace are an ideal place to wander away a

day. Taunton, Bath and Bristol are within easy reach, while in less than half an hour you’re on

the beach at Burnham-on-Sea, with seven miles of golden sands and unspoilt dunes.

You’ll find cinemas in Wells and Bridgwater, leisure, sports centres and gyms in Glastonbury,

The Isle of Wedmore and Wells Golf Clubs, as well as a great range of local country pubs and

tempting restaurants.

SHOPPING AND RETAIL THERAPY

Farriers Close is a short walk from Meare’s post office, and there are several fabulous farm

shops nearby. Five miles away, Street has all the high street names and you’re less than 10

minutes’ drive from several major supermarkets and independent food stores.

You’ll also find Clarks Village, an outlet shopping extravaganza with over 90 high street and

designer retailers offering amazing discounts on fashion, homewares, beauty and cosmetics.

MEARE AND THE LOCAL AREAAnd if you’re looking for something a bit different, Glastonbury is a world of its own, crammed

full of quirky, one-of-a-kind places selling artisan products and creative gifts. Tuesday is the

regular weekly market, plus there’s a farmers’ market, packed with local produce, once a month.

There’s plenty more to shop for in nearby Wells and Bridgwater, whilst under an hour from home

Bristol offers everything from unexpected pop-ups to the largest malls in the South West.

LOCAL EDUCATION

The quality of local education makes Meare an excellent location for young families. Meare

Village Primary School and Meare Moles Playgroup are both rated Outstanding by Ofsted,

and there are a number of other exceptional nursery and junior schools in nearby Ashcott,

Glastonbury and Street.

The area is served by a variety of state and independent secondary schools, academies and

sixth form colleges, including St Dunstan’s School in Glastonbury, Crispin’s School Academy in

Street and the Blue School in Wells.

Shapwick is a specialist school for children affected by dyslexia, dyspraxia and dyscalculia. The

internationally famous Millfield School, and its associated preparatory school, are in Street.

The universities of Bath, Exeter, Bristol and the West of England, as well as Strode College in

Street, and Bridgwater & Taunton College, are all nearby.

TRANSPORT LINKS

Excellent local road links via the M5 at Bridgwater mean you’re in Taunton in 45 minutes, Bristol

in about an hour, Exeter 1½ hours, and London in around 2 ½ hours. Closer to home, the shops

of Glastonbury, Street and Wells are a few minutes away by car, and there’s also a regular local

bus service.

Meare is half an hour from Castle Cary station, with regular services to Taunton, Bath, Swindon,

and London Paddington, just 90 minutes away. Trains from Burnham-on-Sea connect you with

Bridgwater, Taunton and Bristol.

If you’re travelling further afield, Bristol Airport is 40 minutes away, Exeter an hour, and you’ll be
