Accommodation

Two charming dwellings exist on the farm. The Boat House (self-catering) and The Manor House (bed & breakfast) are both elegantly, appropriately and comfortably furnished.

The Boat House is an ideal setting for a romantic getaway, or a family retreat. Situated 20 m from the dam's edge, it is a picturesque thatched cottage, which sleeps up to five people. It consists of one en suite bedroom and a very large living room with a sleeper couch and a bunk alcove. There is a second bathroom and the kitchen is fully equipped. The main bedroom and living room have panoramic views over the dam and spectacular surrounding countryside. The lounge fireplace ensures that, even on the coldest of winter days, the Boat House is a cosy environment. The lounge is also equipped with TV.

The Manor House is a beautiful and tastefully decorated country farmhouse which has two en suite double bedrooms and a four sleeper family suite. All the rooms take in sweeping views of the dam and surrounding countryside. Each room is supplied with tea and coffee making facilities, and have heaters for winter warmth.

Manor House Bedrooms:

All of the bedrooms in the Manor House are special! Each has its own character and theme, which is the result of three generations of our family's love and dedication to the farmhouse.

The Blue Room is the most grand of all the Manor House bedrooms, with its eye-catching restored wooden floors. It has stunning views over Cliffe Dam, the garden and rolling hills. This double room also has its own fireplace and access into the garden. The en suite bathroom is a large, carpeted room with a bath.

The Green Room is another very comfortable double en suite room, with superb views of Cliffe Dam and the surrounding countryside. The room is bright, airy and fully carpeted, and the bathroom is fitted with a bath.

The Family Room consists of two inter-leading bedrooms. The main room is a double, and the second has two single beds. It is also located on the front side of the house, with views of the dam and surrounding farmlands. The large bay window makes a great reading and relaxation area. The bathroom is separate but is next door and dedicated to the room.
