Park Head

Park Head

What makes Park Head special?
Park Head is the perfect retreat set deep in Halswell Park, Somerset and enjoys fine views over open countryside. A truly peaceful location makes this property both ideal for families with young children as well as adults wanting to escape the pace of 21st century living. Originally built as the Halswell estate veterinary and estate forge in the late 1750s, Park Head will be a stylish and contemporary residence complete with up-to-the minute conveniences you would expect of a Dunster Living property.

The property is ideally suited to large family gatherings or party celebrations. Families with children will appreciate the enclosed gardens to the side of the property and easily monitored swimming pool - you can sip your lunchtime vino while the kids splash around under your watchful eye!

Park Head is very easily accessed from Junction 24 of the M5, which is 6 miles away, and there are great walks in the Quantock Hills from the front door of the property. The wonderful gardens of Hestercombe are only a few miles away, so too is Dunster Castle, and the sacred site that is Glastonbury Abbey is only 15 miles east.

How to get there
Park Head is easily accessed from exit 24 of the M5, which is six miles (ten km) away, and there are great walks in the Quantock Hills from the front door of the property. Bridgwater is the local town (home of carnival) and the large village of North Petherton is a short drive down the country lanes should you need a post office or that extra pint of milk in a hurry!
