About this property

Entire place

You'll have the entire home to yourself and will only share it with other guests in your party.

Two bedroom holiday hideaway in the Blackdown Hills. Walks and wildlife!

A peaceful rural place that hasn't changed much in centuries, you will soon forget the stress of everyday life and unwind to the sound of birdsong.

We have a small flock of rare breed sheep and a little nature reserve; we try to farm in a regenerative way, protecting the soil and the environment. Paddle in the beautiful River Culm by day or gaze at the stars in the unpolluted sky at night - our air is clean and so is our water, which comes from one of the many springs in this place that time forgot. If you're (very) lucky you might spot an otter or a barn owl, an orchid or a glowworm - just some of the wildlife and plant life that we are lucky to live among.

Ours is a friendly local farming community. It's probably not the holiday for you if you're looking for all the mod cons, although we do have super-fast broadband! You won't be able to get food delivered and Uber won't find you here, but you will be able to get away from everything, snuggle up in front of a fire or watch the world go by. There are lots of beautiful walks in our quiet lanes, lovely local pubs, and plenty of day trips locally. You won't want to leave!
The vacation home is heated and features a kitchen and a patio, and there's space to spread out with 2 bedrooms. Guests can enjoy a Smart TV and stay connected with free WiFi. Other standard amenities include a washing machine, a fireplace, and an electric kettle. Housekeeping is available on request.
