A converted farm building, Torfield is a luxurious 5 star, two bedroom cottage that sleeps 4 and is our most spacious cottage. It works fantastically well for families or friends.

Lovely, relaxing family break!

We really enjoyed our week long stay at Torfield over the summer holidays. The cottage was great with super comfortable beds, and the kitchen was well equipped. The internet was quite patchy but that was completely understandable with the location being quite remote, but the remoteness was also made what made break more relaxing. The amenities were amazing for our two boys and baby. Everything was very well maintained and looked after. We also really liked that the play area, swimming pool and games room were all very close to the cottage and it felt very safe on the farm. The boys also enjoyed feeding the chickens and looking for eggs in the mornings. You wouldn't need to bring anything to entertain the kids here, as there was so much for them to do!

Jan and Paul were great hosts, they were friendly, helpful, and genuinely wanted us to have the best holiday. My middle son is usually quite nervous around dogs due to previous bad experiences but Lola was very friendly - another week and he would've gotten used to her! Thanks again for a lovely break, we would definitely recommend Lower Elsford Farm for a really relaxing family holiday.

A very enjoyable 3 night pre christmas break to recharge the batteries with Cloda our Sprocker! Lovely cottage and great service from the owners, particularly when we had an issue with the washing machine. Lovely to wander the grounds, meet Lola and climb their very own Tor!! The swimming pool was great and my wife had it all to herself!! Highly recommended and we will be back hopefully

A comfortable, well equipped cottage in a lovely location. Plenty for the kids to do on the farm itself whatever the weather!

We love it here. The cottage is beautiful, spacious and has lots of little luxuries. We spend at least an hour in the pool every day. Paul and Jan are wonderful hosts and it's so lovely coming back to see them each year. There is so much on your doorstep. It really is s wonderful place to come on holiday. Already working out when we'll be going back next year.

We again had a great vacation at the Lower Elsford Farm. Everything you could desire is present. A very complete cottage, a games room with among others a pool table and air hockey, a swimming pool, a playing field, a fire pit, and even a mini golf course. The owners were very friendly and helped us whenever it was needed. The location at the edge of Dartmoor will allow for many nice walks and a day at the beach is within an hour travel distance.
We will be back for certain.

This is our 3rd visit to Lower Elsford Farm, 1st stay in the Torfield , we stayed in Garden Cottage previously. Lovely property and perfect location across from the pool and the games room. Jan & Paul are brilliant hosts, very kind and welcoming - we loved our little welcome basket of goodies.
Our little girls loved the pool, park, the chickens and of course Lola.
We can’t wait to hopefully return again soon, I would definitely recommend staying here to others ! Great location to be a short drive from a beach , Pennywell Farm & the Zoo etc.

Had a super winter break. Paul couldn't have been more helpful. Cottage was cosy and warm and had everything we needed. Swimming pool and games room were immaculate and just what we wanted on a dark winters evening. Super location for exploring both moors and seaside. Need nerves of steel to cope with some of the narrow lanes in the area but we’ll worth the effort!

This was our second trip to Lower Elsford Farm and we had the most wonderful time. We stayed in Torfield again as it’s perfect for our family of 4. Beautifully clean, with everything you could need. Absolutely love the swimming pool refurb, it looks amazing! Can’t wait to come again!

We love the farm and have always stayed in Torfield. Everything in the cottage is beautiful and there's plenty of space. The pool is a great addition, clean, warm and well maintained. This was our 3rd visit and we've already booked for next year. Lots to do near by or you can just relax on the farm. It's perfect.

We can always rely on the farm for a great holiday - that's why we keep coming back! Fun, relaxation, great facilities, beautiful scenery and wildlife. Paul and Jan are always so welcoming (as is the beautiful Lola too!) and clearly work hard to maintain the high standards.

This was our third stay at the farm and won’t be our last. Wonderful location and surroundings plenty of upgrades since our last visit the pool looks fantastic after it’s makeover, as does the play area and games room. Lots of hard work has gone into making this place so good not a blade of grass out of place. Thank Paul, Jan and Lola.
