To may your stay with us more relaxed we have added a small paddock area that is (relatively) dog safe – so you can let you pooch have a run around without fear of losing them or them becoming overly interested in our other animals (donkeys or chickens).

We have also added a small seating area for your enjoyment in this same paddock which will catch the sun until the late evening (when available!!)

We are also adding a small picket fence around Boskins to allow you to enjoy the outside without interference from our dogs – or keeping your in more secure area. – obviously you can choose to leave the gate open if you enjoy the visits from our resident hounds.

We have re-opened following the Covid19 lockdown restrictions with additional cleaning measures and distancing in place.

Cottages now come with sanitizer etc and all linens etc are changed between guests (as they were before to be honest!) – as well as a full clean and an additional antiviral ‘fog’ spray to reduce risk of any viral transmission.

The additional measures mean we have drafted in addition support to help with cleaning and extended our check in time until 1600 to give us time to ensure the properties are fully prepared and not rushed.

Thanks for you patience and understanding at this time.

On the 26/27th March we welcomed new blood to the house with 17 more chicks all successfully hatched from the incubator.

Having spent a week in the dining room (in a hamster cage) – they have now transferred today to the ‘big outdoors’ (well a caged off area in the hay barn).

That time of year again when the netting and poly-tunnel need to be prepared ready for fruit and veg.. and the seeds need plating out.

We can now accept deposit and balancing payments over the phone by credit or debit card to make booking with us even more simple and stress-free.

Finally added some guttering to the lower shedding roof… its only taken two years of walking through a curtain of water every-time there was any dampness around – its all a matter of priorities :).

Arty is becoming a big lad …. posing for the ‘family’ portrait  (Loki couldn’t wait that long!)

and looking for Maze as usual – the normal morning walk across the moors

The search area widens … same picture – un-cropped … it doesn’t get much better than this!

Moriarty or ‘Arty’ to his friends has arrived with us.
