About The Fox Den

The Fox Den is a beautifully finished detached barn conversion, tucked away at the end of a long, sweeping driveway, offering a countryside escape near the pretty village of East Coker, in the heart of Somerset. Set within a breathtaking 500-acre estate, the property is secluded and tranquil, surrounded by wildflower meadows, sunflower fields, and open farmland, blending rustic charm with elegant design and thoughtfully chosen modern comforts.

Inside, the stone cottage showcases exceptional craftsmanship, with stylish flooring and underfloor heating throughout. The entrance hallway serves as a practical boot room and utility area, complete with an integrated washing machine.

From here, you can access a stylish ground-floor wet room featuring a double walk-in shower with sleek tiling, ideal for freshening up after countryside walks. Just outside, a warm water tap provides a convenient spot for rinsing muddy boots and paws, making this space especially dog-friendly and perfect for outdoor adventurers.

The spacious kitchen and dining room are a true centrepiece, featuring a newly installed kitchen with quartz worktops, a range cooker, and a Nespresso coffee machine. Expansive windows flood the space with natural light and frame stunning countryside views.

The adjoining lounge is warm and inviting, with a large wall-mounted TV, sound bar, a log burner, and patio doors leading to a wrap-around terrace. Upstairs, two beautifully appointed super king bedrooms with zip link beds for flexible sleeping arrangements each enjoy their own ensuite, one with a modern shower room and the other with a luxurious bathroom.

Outside, the property continues to impress with multiple terraced seating areas designed to make the most of the views throughout the day. A six-person hot tub offers the ultimate indulgence, while the surrounding lawns, private woodland, and tranquil pond create a haven for relaxation and wildlife spotting.

Dorset Teddy Bear Museum - DT1 1JU
about 16 Miles
This family orientated museum is dedicated to Teddy Bears both old and new Edward Bear and his family of people sized bears are one of the main attractions.  You can buy teddy bear gifts from the quaint shop including top notch brands.  The Steiff Teddy Bear and Merrythought bears are very popular.  Open 7 days a week all year round (except 25th and 26th December) this is a perfect all weather place to visit.
Kingston Maurward Gardens and Animal Park - DT2 8PY
about 17 Miles
Kingston Maurward Gardens and Animal Park is a magical place to visit with grand gardens and plenty of animals to meet.  From goats and ponies to alpacas and pot bellied pigs this attraction is excellent value for money.  You can feel free to explore the grounds too which are especially lovely on sunny days.  You will see majestic floral displays, stone terraces, a temple and even a lake.
The Walled Gardens of Cannington - TA5 2HA
about 23 Miles
The Walled Gardens of Cannington offer a range of attraction for adults and children alike. The grown ups will love to wander around the beautiful gardens taking in the stunning floral displays while the children will enjoy the garden games, nature trails and open space to run around. The site also has a picnic area and exhibitions and workshops can be enjoyed at peek times of the year.
Monkey World - BH20 6HH
about 24 Miles
Monkey World is not only a local attraction but the work they carry out is amazing.  Rescuing and rehabilitating monkeys and assisting governments around the world to stop the smuggling of primates are just some of the purposes of the centre. You get to see the primates themselves many of which have become famous from appearing on the TV show Monkey World - a documentary about this place. Open year round we think this is one of best attractions in Dorset and you even get the chance to adopt a monkey if you choose.
Longleat Safari and Adventure Park - BA12 7NW
about 26 Miles
You may have seen this amazing attraction on the BBC1 Animal Park programme.  This is actually the first safari park outside of Africa where you can get close to the animals from the comfort of your own car. Some of the highlights include the zebras, the wallabies in wallaby wood and the sea lion escorted cruise to Gorilla Island.  And of course the magnificent lions and tigers are a must see.  This really is an animal experience with a difference and you can save money by booking your tickets online.  This attraction is open until the end of October. Check out their website to see some fantastic video podcasts of the park.
