The Victorian Wing cottage at Stockham Farm is the beautifully refurbished and spacious wing of a traditional period Exmoor farmhouse. Completely self-contained, the cottage has the grand farmhouse front door and porch (great for removing muddy boots and drying off muddy paws!).
The Accommodation:
Through the porch you are led into the large sitting-room. This warm, welcoming and characterful room boasts underfloor heating, as well as a fabulous inglenook fireplace and wood-burning stove! With comfy sofas, bookcases, board games and a smart TV, all creature comforts are there for you.
From a half-landing you will find the bespoke kitchen/breakfast room with views of the orchard from the old pine table, as well as the luxury bathroom. These two rooms both have underfloor heating, and the kitchen has a dishwasher, a washing machine and a microwave in addition to the ceramic hob and fan assisted oven.
On the first floor both of the cosy, comfortable bedrooms have lovely rural views across the paddocks to the hills beyond. One bedroom has a kingsize bed and the other has a superking size bed that can be changed into a pair of full size twin beds if guests prefer.
The cottage has been beautifully and sympathetically decorated, with Farrow & Ball paint colours in every room and bespoke curtains at the windows. No expense has been spared to create a luxury home from home.
Technology:
We have excellent satellite broadband at Stockham and really good wifi that extends throughout the cottages and outside too! 4G reception is also good, as is mobile reception for EE and Three. Each of the bedrooms has a USB charging point beside the bed.
We have recently installed a metered electric car charging point outside the cottage for the convenience of our guests.
Outside:
The self-contained Victorian Wing cottage at Stockham Farm is the left hand side of the 18th Century farmhouse, as seen in all the images of the house itself, with exclusive use of the main green front door and porch to access your holiday home. Parking for your cars is right outside the door. Although we live next door, the cottage is completely self-contained and you really won’t know we’re there – many of the warm, honest reviews from previous guests will attest to this!
Guests in the Victorian Wing cottage have exclusive use of the pretty Orchard Garden that is adjacent to the cottage with a large table and four comfortable chairs. There are also four deckchairs and a bbq, beside some pots filled with herbs. Guests are welcome to explore the farm’s 35 acres and other parts of the large farmhouse garden too if they wish.
It is possible to book both properties together (sleeping 10) or separately – the farm is big enough for two parties to enjoy a holiday separately and peacefully. Please contact us for more information.
