Birch View

Meare, Somerset

A five bedroom house on the Somerset Levels with an enclosed lawned garden, a six person hot tub and two dogs welcome.

Birch View stands at Meare on the Somerset Levels near Glastonbury, five bedrooms and three bathrooms for ten people, with an enclosed lawned garden holding a patio, dining furniture and a hot tub big enough for six. Two dogs.

Westhay Moor sits one and two tenths off with a seven from us, a peat moor nature reserve of reedbed and open water where the winter starling roosts draw people from across the country and a dog gets flat, quiet, entirely level walking. Meare Fish House is four tenths of a mile, the only surviving monastic fisherman's dwelling in England. Ebbor Gorge is six and seven tenths and Cheddar Reservoir seven and a half.

Thirteen guest ratings on a house at this price is a small sample. Two dogs across ten people is the limit to weigh. What the Levels give a dog is something no coast can: absolute flatness, big skies and birds in every direction, which for an older dog or a short legged one is a kinder week than a cliff path.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is Birch View dog friendly?
Yes, Birch View welcomes dogs — up to two are allowed to stay. The house has an enclosed lawned garden, so your dogs have a safe outdoor space to enjoy without you having to worry about them wandering off.
Are dogs allowed at Birch View year round?
The listing doesn't specify any seasonal restrictions on dogs, so there's nothing to suggest they're limited to certain times of year. If you want to be certain, it's always worth checking directly with the property before you book.
What should I know before visiting Birch View with my dog?
The key thing to be aware of is the two-dog limit — the property sleeps up to ten people, so if you're coming as a larger group, factor that in when planning. The Somerset Levels are a genuinely good fit for dogs, offering flat, quiet walking right on the doorstep; Westhay Moor Nature Reserve is just over a mile away and is especially kind terrain for older dogs or shorter-legged breeds.
