At Cookswood, our collection of bespoke holiday homes offers far more than a countryside retreat. Designed with both beauty and longevity in mind, they have the potential to deliver exceptional investment returns. Holiday rental incomes of over £75,000 per year may be achievable, with some properties potentially capable of generating £100,000 annually and over £6,000 per week during peak seasons.

These impressive returns are underpinned by Somerset’s growing reputation as one of the UK’s most desirable holiday destinations. Nestled among rolling hills and ancient woodland, Cookswood enjoys an enviable location, surrounded by beautiful local villages, just a short journey from the historic city of Bath and the world-renowned Glastonbury Festival.
With London also within easy reach, Cookswood offers a rare balance of rural tranquillity and exceptional accessibility, a combination that continues to attract visitors year after year.
When purchasing a holiday home in Somerset, it’s important to consider not just the lifestyle benefits, but also the financial rewards. At Cookswood, our homes are built with investment in mind:
High Rental Demand – Year-round bookings, from family stays to wellness retreats, provide strong potential for consistent occupancy. Annual rental incomes of over £75,000 may be achievable, with peak weeks having the potential to generate £6,000+ for our largest designs.
Low Running Costs – Eco-friendly building methods and energy-efficient systems keep bills low, making ownership more sustainable and cost-effective.
Council Tax Savings – As furnished holiday lets, many homes qualify for advantageous tax reliefs, reducing ongoing charges and operating expenses.
Strong Rental Income Potential – A unique, private estate near Bath, Bristol, London, and world-renowned events such as Glastonbury Festival attracts steady rental demand, supported by the growth of domestic tourism and platforms like Airbnb.
Capital Appreciation – As the estate matures and premium facilities continue to evolve, property values are expected to rise significantly, creating long-term growth opportunities.
Stamp Duty & VAT Savings – As self-builds, Cookswood homes benefit from zero-rated VAT on construction and reduced stamp duty compared with ready-built second homes, leading to substantial purchase savings.
Diversified Portfolio – A holiday home at Cookswood is a tangible asset that adds stability and balance to your investment strategy, holding value even in changing markets.
Flexibility & Easy Management – Owners have full control over how often their property is let, with professional management and letting services available for hassle-free income generation.
Eco-Friendly Growth – Sustainability is at the heart of Cookswood. Energy-saving features such as air-source heat pumps are included as standard, while optional solar panels enable greater self-sufficiency, reducing long-term costs and appealing to eco-conscious travellers.
Together, these factors make Cookswood properties highly attractive for those seeking to combine luxury living with long-term investment potential.
Each property at Cookswood is individually designed and custom-built, giving you complete flexibility to create a home that meets both your lifestyle and investment goals. From contemporary lakeside barns and villas to spacious woodland retreats, these homes are designed to maximise rental appeal – with features such as:
Spacious open-plan living and modern interiors
Large outdoor terraces with woodland or lake views
Spa-style bathrooms and luxury finishes
Energy-efficient heating and insulation systems
High-end facilities underway, including a luxury pool and spa and high end restaurant and farm shop
The result is a collection of homes that are both highly desirable to guests and economical for owners to run.
Owning a Cookswood home means enjoying the best of both worlds: a personal retreat for you and your loved ones in the heart of Somerset, and an asset with strong income-generating potential. With potential rental incomes of £75,000 annually – and in some cases the possibility of £100,000+ – a Cookswood property may have the capacity to cover its costs while still offering you the freedom to enjoy regular personal use.
Whether you’re seeking to expand your investment portfolio, secure a retirement income, or simply enjoy a holiday home that has the potential to pay for itself, Cookswood presents a truly one-of-a-kind opportunity in a completely unique and unrivalled location.
