About the Development
Set in the stunning surroundings of Somerset’s Mendip Hills, an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty, Winscombe is a delightful village full of traditional charm. From ancient fairs to an active community centre, from the gentle joys of village cricket, to the friendly welcome in the local pub, this is the lifestyle you’ve been longing for.Amenities
There is a local Co-op store in the village for your day to day needs, with a Sainsbury’s in Cheddar and a choice of supermarkets, including Morrisons, in Weston Super Mare.Dining
As is often the case in villages like Winscombe, the best dining locations are to be found in old country pubs and inns. The Woodborough Inn in the village and the Sidcot Arms, a Brewers Fayre pub, are both well worth a visit locally, as are The New Inn at Cross, The Railway Inn at Sandford and The Bath Arms in Cheddar.Education
Often, choosing a rural location means compromising on education, but not in Winscombe. Here you’ll find outstanding schools for all ages, in both the state and private sectors. Winscombe Primary is rated ‘good with many outstanding features’ by Ofsted, while nearby Sandford Primary is rated ‘outstanding’ across the board. Older pupils are just as well catered for with nearby Churchill Academy and Sixth Form, rated ‘outstanding’.Leisure
Winscome has a proud sense of community, with competitive football and cricket teams as well as a range of other activities available at the popular community centre. There are two enchanting village fairs held each year, celebrating May Day and Michaelmas in December. Head out of the village and you’ll have miles of AONB countryside to explore, helped by the Mendip Outdoor Pursuits and Snowsport Centre.Shopping
There is a small selection of shops in the village, including The Wine Shop, which holds regular tasting evenings. For a wider selection, head for Weston Super Mare, where you’ll find the Sovereign Shopping Centre and Gallagher Retail Park.Transport
