Our three cottages, and Farmhouse (sleeping 14), Orchard Cottage (sleeping 8), Barn Cottage (sleeping 6) and The Old Stables (sleeping 6) comprise tastefully converted farm buildings offering all the modern conveniences that you would expect located within the boundaries of a 650 acre working farm and benefiting from a glorious indoor heated pool and sauna. All of the cottages have been converted using natural materials, including traditional cob and oak with natural slate roofs.
I can highly recommend The Mornacott Farmhouse .
My family which consisted of 8 adults and 8 children aged 6 months to 10 years and we recently stayed at Mornacott Farmhouse over the Early May Bank Holiday weekend to celebrate my upcoming 70th birthday and we had a wonderful time.
On arrival so that we could orientate ourselves we were given a tour of the buildings surrounding the Farmhouse which included a large warm indoor pool and sauna, games room, games field and chicken enclosure. Each holiday home is given its own allotted hours each day for sole use of the pool and sauna. The pool a...more
We (a family group of 8 plus baby) had a wonderful stay at Orchard Cottage. The house is modern, light, spacious and airy, beautifully furnished and altogether perfect for 4 couples.

We would all gladly return another time.

Being spring, the woods were alive with bird song. There are deer aplenty, and we saw stoats, red kites, and 42 bird species in total. It's a conservation-focused estate so there's a range of habitats and the farmstead has a lovely feel to it, with the sparrows chirping away and the first swallows twittering around the barns. There are far reaching views. It's also a working farm and has a herd of the local native cattl...more
Off the beaten track cottage. The 2 bedrooms upstairs were spacious, beautifully clean bedding, comfy mattresses & shared a large bathroom. Clean & super large fluffy towels. Lovely views from both rooms & very peaceful. The bedroom on the ground floor double/twin was very tiny & only a small drawer unit & no wardrobe! This was disappointing as we had nowhere to put our cases. The en suite shower cubicle could do with a deep clean.
