About the Area
Barton St. David is a small yet popular Somerset village with a thriving pub called 'The Barton Inn' which runs themed daily food from Pizza to Greek-style kebab nights. In addition there is a local farm shop, village hall, playing field, and both beauty and hairdressing salons. 'Barton' as it is locally referred to is a quiet, tucked away village close to the other villages of Butleigh, Baltonsborough and Keinton Mandeville which are within a couple of miles and together have a friendly, diverse community and a wide range of amenities. These include several churches, village shops, Post offices, café, pubs, several well-regarded primary schools and various sporting and other clubs and associations.
Nearby are the small towns of Somerton, Street, Glastonbury and the City of Wells. They are all popular residential areas whilst all differing in character and providing for most needs and interests. The larger centres of Bath, Bristol and Taunton are also within commuting distance.
“The Newt in Somerset” just outside Castle Cary is home to beautiful countryside walks set in the grounds of a Georgian country estate. Within the estate there are a Hotel & Spa, Farm shop, restaurants and house & garden shop. Castle Cary is the nearest railway station with its direct line to Paddington and the A303 road link is a few miles south.
There are excellent state and independent schools in the area including Millfield, Strode College, Wells Cathedral, Hazelgrove, various local primary schools plus the Bruton and Sherborne schools.

P.S.
A few extra comments:
Mortgages – we can help.
Bridging loans – We can help.
Moving house is complicated and stressful when a sale and purchase need to be tied together in terms of finance and timing.
Sometimes we can negotiate an agreement to suit both sellers and buyers.
Sometimes a bridging loan can solve problems and remove stress.
