Converted barn / Oast House with amazing views and EV chargers

Hare Farm Oast is a very special place to stay. The large unique farm building has been converted and finished to a high standard as a light and spacious holiday home. It sits in the unspoilt Brede Valley with its own half acre plot and extensive far reaching views. We have carefully breathed new life back into the old oast with its three roundels, originally used for drying and storing hops. Using traditional craftsmanship and materials in its renovation, the oast showcases its unique heritage and beauty, whilst providing ease and comfort to those who stay there.
NEW for 2024: 2 x 7kwh EV charger points
The vacation home is heated and features a kitchen, 4 bathrooms, and a patio, and there's space to spread out with 5 bedrooms. Guests can expect to find free WiFi and a TV with a DVD player. Other standard amenities include a washing machine, a fireplace, and a sofa bed. Housekeeping is available on request.

30th Birthday celebrations

Just returned after a long weekend celebrating our daughter’s 30th birthday. We were a party of 9 adults and 3 small children. The house was cosy and plenty big enough for us all. Happily stay there again, although we had to be super vigilant at all times as our grandson is only a year old and already walking, so the stairs and the fireplace were very hazardous to him. I would definitely recommend with older children. We were shown around the lambing sheds by Annie and saw some lambs being born. A visit to the Red Lion is a must. All in all a great time, Joanna was very helpful in the run up to our stay and during.

Superb accommodation in an idyllic location

A perfect base for a three generation family holiday. The Oast was delightful and immediately felt like home. Tasteful décor and lovely open spaces with views of the valley. Plenty to do in the area and a great pub, The Red Lion, in the village.

Lovely Relaxing Weekend

Property worked well for a large family group of 10. Bedding was lovely and we had good communication with owner and their family who live next door who were on hand to help with any issues. There was a great outdoor space where we had family games. If we were to make any suggestions it would be for an extra 2 garden chairs to save bringing out indoor ones and the small sofa bed to be replaced as it was very uncomfortable for sitting on. But otherwise all good thank you 😊

A perfect spot for a family break.

We hired the Oast for a family get-together to celebrate a significant birthday. It was absolutely ideal, with good sized bedrooms and plenty of bathrooms (the showers in particular are worth a mention). The private garden was perfect for relaxing, with the sights and sounds (baa!) of the adjacent sheep farm. It’s a short drive to the seaside or into the countryside for walks. I would delighted to recommend it.

Fantastic space and surrounding area

We stayed here as a group of friends for New Years. The property is exactly as in the photos, and even had a fantastic Christmas tree set up which was a welcome surprise. The rooms are spacious and complete to a high standard, and the kitchen is very well equipped. We had a food shop delivered and they had no problem finding us. The property was also very warm, so we hardly needed the fire. There are good walks and pubs nearby, and the coast isn't far away at all. Some of the spotlights need replacing as they were flickering (and the switches could do with labelling - as there are a lot!), but other than that no complaints at all.

Our family stayed here for a week over Christmas. The house was a great size for us, and we had everything we needed. The host did a great job decorating for Christmas, so it felt extra special. Views from the house are beautiful, and there is a footpath running through the property so it’s a great area to do some country walls. Thanks to the host for great communication and a pleasant stay.
