your cabin guide

  • Stackyards

    Named after one of our fields, Stackyards is a converted railway carriage that we estimate dates back to the 1950’s.

    Originally a goods wagon on the railway it was later used on a farm as a pig hut. After painstakingly restoring the structure we built this cabin and gave it a modern makeover.

  • The Bathtub

    We love a sparkling clean tub but sometimes nature has different ideas so you may have to rinse out the tub with the shower before use. Rest assured we perform a full sanitisation/clean before you arrive.

    An outdoor bath comes with it’s own quirks so we suggest the following:

    • Only run the hot tap (unless you fancy a refreshing coldwater dip!).

    • Warm the tub with the shower before starting to fill.

    • If you want to top ups the tub with hot water whilst you fill it then aim the shower over the grass for a few moments to run out any water that’s gone cold in the pipe.

    • Use any bath products you like!

  • Farm Walks.

    We have left grass margins around our fields and we encourage you to enjoy the country air and the quaint British countryside on a ramble around the farm.

    In your cabin is a printed map to show the routes from which you can enjoy walks in the grass around our farm.

    This is a working farm so please do be careful on your travels and keep dogs on a lead at all times.

  • Wood Stove.

    The logs left inside the cabin are there for use inside the wood stove if you need some more there are some in the log store behind the cabin. Please do not try to force larger logs into the stove as this can damage the fire bricks inside.

    Start by lighting some fire lighters and igniting a few sticks of kindling. Once the kindling has caught load a couple of logs above the burning kindling, taking care not to burn yourself or smother the fire.

  • Pumpkin and Pepper.

    Pumpkin and Pepper are our rare breed pigs. Pumpkin s an Oxford Sandy Black - also known as a Plum Pudding.

    Her breed has twice neared extinction and we are still one of the few to keep this native, British breed.

    Pepper is a large black. Also rarely seen in England today.

    We’ve set them up with new lodgings in the pill box that sits outside to the entryway to the farm. Feel free to pop over and say hello - but please don’t feed them as they are on a special diet!

  • Four legged friends.

    Due to the livestock around the farm we do ask that you keep dogs on their leads at all times unless they are inside the cabin with you.

    In the little shop we have a basket full of dog towels should you need one.

    Please bag any dog waste - we have some bags for sale if you forget them - and this can be disposed of in the large green bin nearby the shop.

  • Our birds.

    We have a selection of birds dotted about the farm.

    The woodlands are home to our Guineafowl and pheasants who you may see directing traffic on the lane outside the farm from time to time. They are great at slowing cars down! Please avoid the woodland between September to February.
