About the host
Hosted by Host
The family have owned the farm in the centre of the village for several generations and it continues today to be a working arable and beef cattle farm. We are live next door to the self-catering cottages so are on hand to answer any questions and to meet our guests. There is lots to do close by for walkers, families, groups, couples and singles. We can cater for everyone including single people on business in the area or looking for a short-term house in between houses or if you need to move out for building work. Orchard cottage is popular with large groups as you can all eat together but sleep in different cottages next door, suitable for birthdays, baptisms, wedding parties, stag & hen parties, family reunions etc. The Living Rainforest is a great place to visit in the village with a sloth, monkeys, butterflies to see. We are a popular base to visit Oxford, London, Windsor, Legoland, Goring and the Ridgeway for walking. The heating for the self-catering cottages has is run on a wood-pellet boiler so very environmentally friendly.
