We live in a big old rectory in the middle of fields with a few areas of the building that is perfect for guests. There are 4 acres of manicured gardens and a paddock. It is a private family residence with our young children and a few animals running around the garden (ponies, donkey, chickens, turkeys, guinea fowl, ducks, cats, and of course a dog). There are different parts of the house and grounds that are perfect for guests, all with their own access.

About the Area

Tucked out of the way in the middle of fields, with 2 distant neighbours, the house is accessed via electric gates, up a gravel driveway which overlooks the manicured gardens, to the main house where you can park anywhere. From here, you can walk or cycle up through the top entrance past the farmyard next door, to Exmoor. You'll need some walking shoes or some wheels, as we are miles from anything! Beautifully peaceful countryside and dark skies at night.

You then pay your host on arrival or as stated by your host on their profile and agreed by you on booking. Please be cautious if a host requests advance payment if its not included on their profile. Our hosts have been advised that if they wish to request advance payment they must make this explicit in their profile. We do not recommend the use of Money gram or Western Union.
