La proprietà — Ebborways Farm Bed & Breakfast
Ebborways Farm Bed & Breakfast is a 3-star working farm set in the Mendip Hills, with a practical, no-fuss feel. Standing in the flagged lobby, you smell the wool from the rare-breed sheep and hear the crackle of the wood burner. Its USP is its direct access to Ebbor Gorge National Nature Reserve – guests can walk to the gorge entrance in under five minutes. It suits hikers, families who want to bunk down after a day on the trail, and anyone after a quiet, rural base with proper farm breakfasts.
Cronache di Priddy
Priddy is a small Mendip Hills village that grew around the medieval sheep fairs held on its green. The landscape is pockmarked with Neolithic barrows and lead-mining pits from Roman and later operations. In the 17th century, lead smelting made the area briefly prosperous; the village pub, The Queen Victoria, dates from that era. Today Priddy is a quiet hub for walkers and cavers, its identity shaped by the deep gorges, limestone pavement and the annual sheep fair (a survivor from the 14th century).
