New annex in the Woods, Westbury-sub-Mendip
This contemporary and sustainable timber frame annex is set in Westbury-sub-Mendip as a modern holiday let, providing additional visitor accommodation. Positioned on the edge of woodland, it enjoys stunning views over the Somerset countryside and offers a peaceful, nature-connected retreat.
Designed with a strong focus on modern, eco-friendly architecture, the annex sits sensitively within its rural landscape. Natural vertical timber cladding and a green living roof help the building blend seamlessly into its surroundings while reducing its visual impact.
The aim was to create a modern, sustainable and tranquil building that connects closely with the woodland setting and surrounding countryside views.
Internally, the contemporary design continues with a bright open-plan living space featuring clean white walls, polished concrete floors, and a dynamic sloping roof that enhances natural light and volume. The result is a minimalist, light-filled interior that balances comfort, sustainability, and modern living.
