Inside this Welcoming Sleeps 12 Farmhouse and Dairy in the scenic Blackdown Hills
In the Farmhouse, enjoy a elegantly designed living area, and take advantage of the TV and sumptuous seating in the main lounge. Look up at the wood beamed ceilings, creating a cosy area to snuggle up in. Or, sit up at the kitchen island, looking over the fully equipped kitchen and dreaming of what family favourite you’ll cook up that night over a cup of freshly made coffee. There’s even a games room with a pool table to enjoy!
Spend your nights in one of four bedrooms in the farmhouse, each cleverly inspired by romantic and stunning periods of history. The Edwardian suite and The Victorian suite each sleep two in lavish king-sized beds, featuring sumptuous coverings and beautifully furnished interiors. As they both include an ensuite, you can enjoy a refreshing shower or a relaxing bath before you settle down to sleep. The Medieval suite again features a king-sized bed, and is conveniently placed near the family bathroom, while the Georgian suite includes a cosy double bed sleeping two. If you have a bigger party, there’s even a children’s room for two children under 12.
In the Dairy, enjoy two extra bedrooms to spend dreamy nights in, featuring two ground floor rooms. Buttercup sleeps two, boasting a luxurious king-sized bed and an ensuite bathroom. Bluebell again sleeps two in twin beds, with an ensuite shower to enjoy on a bright morning.
