Rex the Bus

Rex the Bus is a converted double‑decker parked on a smallholding near Barwick, Somerset. The unique compact stay sleeps up to four across two small bedrooms and has a shower, kitchen and heating with a wood‑burner.

The bus sits on roughly 10 acres with farm animals nearby and rural views. Yeovil is about 1.5 miles away and the host is a long‑standing Airbnb Superhost with high guest ratings.

A quirky, compact rural stay inside a restored double‑decker bus. Expect tight spaces designed for short stays, basic self‑catering facilities and countryside calm rather than hotel‑style services.

Look out for:

• Mains electricity, water and drainage connections plus a working wood‑burner for heat.

• Kitchen facilities and a ground‑floor shower; toilet and basin are upstairs.

• Free on‑site parking (space for two cars) and Wi‑Fi available.

• Farm animals on the smallholding and open views from the surrounding paddock.

Best way to experience it:

Arrive by car for easy access and park on the premises, or use Yeovil Junction station (claimed ~15‑minute walk) if relying on public transport. Pack light, bring outdoor shoes for the paddock and plan short stays to make the most of the novelty and rural setting.

• Maximum 4 guests.

• No dogs allowed due to livestock nearby.

• Check‑in listed as after 3:00 PM; checkout before 10:00 AM (see host for exact details).

• Tight, non‑standard spaces—not suited to mobility aids; confirm accessibility needs with host.
