Ideal for young families, children can choose to chill out in one of the lounges, leaving the grown ups in peace!

We can also add up to five of our ensuite rooms to house the remainder of your party; four of which are situated in front of the cottages.

Here at Beeches Farmhouse, we have an on-site games room, play area and games field for those competitive games of ping pong or football. The dining tables can be combined in Cow Byre 1 Country Cottage to provide seating for up to 24-ish on chairs and benches. In the warmer weather, a marquee can be hired and even caterers perhaps for meals on the lawn. The BBQs are a real hit in the summer months, with the option to arrange supermarket deliveries to your front door.
