Peacock Cottage is situated in the centre of the attractive village of Queen Camel that is conveniently placed mid-way between the South Somerset town of Castle Cary to the North and both the historic Abbey town of Sherborne and the local regional centre of Yeovil to the south. The village has an unusual number of amenities including a church, a public house, a shop, a primary school, a medical centre and a village hall, while Castle Cary, Sherborne and Yeovil provide between them an excellent range of cultural, recreational and shopping facilities. Sporting, walking and riding opportunities abound within the area with many walks to be had from the village itself while the region is well known for both its public and privately funded schooling. Communication links are good with main line stations at both Sherborne and Castle Cary linking directly with London Waterloo and London Paddington respectively while road links are along the A303 joined nearby at Sparkford giving swift access to London and the Home Counties along the M3, M25 route.
The delightful rear garden offers a good degree of privacy and features pretty stone walls which add real depth and character to the garden. There is a manicured shaped lawn with mature borders and herbaceous planting designed to give shape, colour and form throughout the seasons. Within the garden there is a stone store equipped with power and light, and access to the workshop and double garage which has electrically operated doors. A rear gate leads out to a private driveway providing ample parking which is laid to a hardstanding.
