Nestled in the heart of a lush valley within sprawling meadows and at the end of a winding lane, is The Farmhouse at Broad Downs. This stunning property seamlessly blends rustic charm with modern elegance. The exterior retains the original character and inside the rich warm palette complements the surrounding landscape. Large windows invite the natural light to flood the rooms affording breathtaking views over the surrounding countryside. Stepping inside from the ample parking area you are greeted by a vast open plan living area where high vaulted ceilings showcase the impressive architecture. The stylishly furnished sitting area combines vintage and contemporary décor accented by a double-sided wood burner providing a welcome ambience whilst the generous dining area sets the stage for memorable gatherings.

The kitchen is well equipped with a Heritage stove, additional electric oven, larder fridge and further fridge freezer. The central island provides a useful preparation area.

Just beyond this you will find the beautifully spacious sitting room, a warm and inviting retreat, designed to blend comfort with natural beauty. Exposed wooden beams add character and a sense of grandeur. The wood burner invites cosy gatherings on chilly evenings with the sumptuous seating thoughtfully arranged to create intimate conversation areas. Large patio doors lead to a further terrace with sunbeds where leisurely afternoons can be spent reading or simply admiring the rolling lawns beyond. Whether sipping morning coffee or watching the sunset, it’s the ideal spot to unwind and embrace the outdoors.

What guests are saying
A lovely property in a lovely location, however the level of cleanliness and maintenance was poor - the BBQ was dirty, dust and dirt in the bedrooms, the main TV was broken.
Door latches on bedrooms and bathrooms didn’t work. No lock on main family bathroom. After leaving the property we were surprisingly charged £90 for not using wheelie bin liners in the main bin - nowhere in the guest book was this required and seems so unfair when you are required to empty all house bins into it at the end of your stay. Complaint submitted 3 months ago and heard nothing so gone into a black hole, so frustrating and a bitter end to our stay sadly
The Farmhouse provides spacious, delightfully situated accommodation for a large family group with children.
The description and photographs do not do it justice. Games and books for children are thoughtfully provided and the animals in the surrounding fields are a constant source of interest. The kitchen is well-equipped for large-scale catering and the cleanliness of the whole house helps to make The Farmhouse an ideal place for a holiday.
