What makes this property unique
Large Property , Rent as a Entire House, Original Fire Places, Enjoy Country house but in a Town as Castle Cary is Classed as a Town. Enjoy Resturaunts and local outlets close, Also so close to get to train station at Castle Cary, and easy to get to from London and if working at the Bath and West Showground just along the road.
Bristol close and Bath and lots of places to visit although close neighbours they are so friendly so a great family home on a private road to rear.
