About Burrow

Burrow emerges from the Somerset landscape as a modest cluster of dwellings, shaped by the ancient, rugged character of the surrounding hills. It lies 3.2 miles south-west of Minehead (from Minehead: bearing 214°T, OS grid SS 938 420), and is situated south of Wootton Courtenay village. This collection of homes resides entirely within the protected expanse of Exmoor National Park, where the horizon is defined by the sharp, wind-sculpted contours of the moor. The light here often takes on a pale, translucent quality, catching the moisture that drifts up from the nearby Wootton Courtenay Stream. To the west, the deep, shadowed cleft of Hanny Combe offers a sanctuary for ferns and mosses that thrive in the damp, sheltered air. Life in Burrow follows the slow, rhythmic rotation of the seasons, dictated more by the demands of the terrain than by the bustle of the distant coast. The earth itself holds a quiet permanence, unbothered by the passage of modern transit or the encroachment of industry. Burrow remains a place where the silence is heavy and absolute, broken only by the thin, persistent cry of buzzards circling the high ridges.
