House Rules
Our aim during your stay is to offer a unique, rustic and relaxed break away on our busy working farm. We will do our absolute best to meet your needs and reasonable requests.
- Due to the close proximity of the accommodation to our private homes, we kindly ask all guests to respect our privacy and peace.
- We request that guests move indoors by 10 pm. However, reasonable low volume conversations will be politely tolerated until 11.30 pm. We all function better on a good night of sleep after a hard day on the farm.
- Smoking is not permitted inside the farm house.
Requests can be made in relation to pets. We allow a maximum of two dogs, charged at £10 per animal per weekend and £25 per week.
No dogs are allowed upstairs and must be kept in the hall in either a pen or their own bed (which we will not provide). - No dogs are allowed on the furniture. They should remain on leads outside of the farm house, to protect our own pets and precious livestock.
- We understand that accidents happen. To minimise damage, please inform us immediately of any damage or spillages so that we can attempt to clean and repair as soon as possible. Any significant cleaning or damage will result in a charge to you.
- Lost keys will incur a £25 replacement fee.
Missing items / lost property will be returned at the cost of the postage fee.
We hope you enjoy your stay. We will happy answer any queries you may have in relation to your booking.
