Verena and Paul Brandon own and run Chestnut House,
a five star
village property situated in the old part of Woolavington,
five miles from
Bridgwater yet in the countryside on the
edge of the Somerset Levels.
We lived abroad for much of our adult life having gained
a wealth of hotel and catering management experience
in the UK, Africa and Central Europe.
We have brought back to the UK many ideas to enhance
our hotel
and the service that we provide.
We consider that our
professionalism
and attention to detail are important
factors in ensuring that
our guests have a comfortable,
enjoyable and memorable stay.
Chestnut House was originally a farmhouse, built prior
to 1700.
Eight years ago, it was completely renovated and
now offers seven
en suite double rooms with a residential licence,
beautiful
landscaped grounds and a secluded car park.
We aim to offer only the best in style and personal service
for those visiting
the area on business or purely for pleasure,
priding ourselves on a
relaxed atmosphere, testament
to our experience and knowledge.
Chestnut House is a place where you can truly feel at home
