Our favourite rooms
Flocking to the country en famille? The Barn has buckets of space, plus wall-to-wall glass doors in the living room to facilitate unhindered garden frolicking. Those planning a working holiday – or penning the next pastoral masterpiece – should opt for the Loft. There’s workspace aplenty and should writer’s block strike, a stint on the sunlit balcony, tree-fringed pond and fields of butter-yellow flowers below, can’t help but inspire. For a romantic rendezvous, The Cottage, with its blush pink touches and soaking tub made for two, is a seductive prospect.
Spa
There’s no spa, but in-room massages, manicures and more can be arranged on request.
Packing tips
Don’t let the prospect of temperamental elements tempt you to panic-pack your whole to-be-read list – between the pre-loaded Xbox and impressive board game collection, there’s more than enough fun to fill a mizzly afternoon.
Also
The majority of the furniture might be custom-made in Italy, but that doesn’t mean owner Susan shies away from a spot of design-minded DIY – she hand-crafted the bedside tables in the Cottage from a salvaged church pew.
Pet‐friendly
The individual homes are a no-go for four-legged friends, but horses can be housed in the stable on request. See more pet-friendly hotels in Northamptonshire.
Children
Each apartment has a double sofa bed, as well as at least one super king-size bed that can be split into twin beds on request. Free travel cots are also available in all three.
Best for
Babies and up.
Recommended rooms
All three cottages have the full range of kid-friendly kit, but the Barn is best for bigger groups.
Babysitting
Babysitting can be booked in advance for £15 an hour, and baby-monitoring equipment is available on request.
No need to pack
Don’t feel the need to pack half the play room – there’s a brimming toy box, plus an Xbox pre-loaded with games for all the family.
Sustainability efforts
The farm’s serious green credentials are helped along by a healthy dose of competition. Guests can check their eco rating, based on power and water consumption, on smart screens in each room – keep your score low and a prize awaits. You won’t be without a head start, though – the cottages are 98 per cent carbon neutral, using solar power, air source heating and filtered well water. A single button by the front door makes switching off the lights and heating on your way out a breeze, and all cottages have an electric vehicle charger, so your eco efforts don’t have to stop when you start exploring.
