The Experience

A lively symphony of high ceilings, polished concrete floors, mid-century and antique furniture, good lighting and splashes of colour from pretty fabrics. Every wall is green and every picture is of trees or flowers so you’ll feel the outside has niftily crept indoors. From the enormous living space there are bi-fold doors to the garden and steps up to a wide lawn for sprawling.

You’ll find yoga mats, picnic baskets, heaps of books and games, all the gear for cooking in the swish kitchen and a long table for convivial meals – there’s an outdoor one too for balmy days. Underfloor heating warms the whole space. Sleep peacefully in fat beds while the barn owl hoots.

Stride a network of footpaths in 200 acres of wildflower meadows and woodland, swim or boat, toast yourselves by a bonfire, take a sundowner to the romantic folly with a wood-burner and long views, feel hugged by so much beauty and peace.

We think you'll love

  • Having so much space and not having to share it with anybody – the wildflower meadows, the lake, the woods, the bonfire and play spaces are all yours
  • Spotting birds, butterflies, bees, wildflowers and sheep – with a profusion of bluebells and lambs in spring
  • Coming in winter for dramatic skies and frosty walks then hunkering down with books and good food

Reviews

Wood Farm is a very special place indeed. There is so much to discover just walking around the grounds; the boathouse and the folly were particular highlights, and my son (aged 18 months) was delighted to find the adventure playground. It's lovely to find somewhere with two spacious double bedrooms and bathrooms, we all felt very comfortable and are hoping to come back again soon.

Alice, Bristol

We had a wonderful stay at the beautiful barn. It was such a special place, we loved exploring the woodland, lake and Folly. We can’t wait to go back for our next visit.

Katie, Wales

I have stayed at the Barn twice and would happily return. The second time my family also hired the cottage. I can’t say how much I enjoyed both stays as did my children and grandchildren. The accommodation is so comfortable, the huge dining area and very well equipped kitchen makes celebratory meals a pleasure. The lounge with piano is a real treat. We all love the woods for strolling, exploring, playing, climbing and bonfires. Finally a boat on the lake is the icing on the cake. I hope to return for another big birthday.

Ruth, Worthing West Sussex

A marvellous place to come with (perhaps slightly older) children who can charge about freely and safely, swim and boat in the lake and make bonfires in the space in the woods. But equally nice to come with another couple or on your own, stroll along the grassed paths, watch birds, sit with a glass of wine in the folly enjoying the views and the peace. It's just a lovely place for unwinding.

Location

The neighbourhood

You're just outside Foxham, with a farm next door and The Best Ever Brownie Company with a little café – great for walkers on the Wiltshire Downs. A half-hour walk will take you to the pub which has a nice garden for an evening pint and good food, especially fish. Marlborough is a 25-minute drive, a market town with some super independent shops. Visit Bowood House for a Capability Brown landscape.

Local points of interest from Alexandra Beeley

  • The Barn at Wood Farm is a walkers paradise, a children's adventure playground, a place to roam free in natural beauty. 200 acres of woods, meadows and a lake all to call your own. Forest bathe, wild swim, bird watch, walk or chill. Its a magical place.
  • 5 miles from Beautiful Bowood, home to the Earls of Shelburne with its stately home, Capability Brown landscape, historic gardens, spa, golf course and childrens adventure playground.
  • We love walking to the Best Ever Brownie Cafe in the farmyard a mile away. Great for Toasties, Cookies and Coffees with farm animals to watch as you munch. Walk or jog to our local pub the Foxham Inn or 10 min drive to The Dumbpost with epic garden view.
  • A multitude of great walks and cycles to navigate around our Foxham Valley and the Wiltshire Downs. Take walks to The Cherhill White Horse, The Ridgeway, Civil War battle sites or to and from pubs around the Bowood.Estate.
  • Avebury with its stone circles is one of our favourite outings without the crowds of Stonehenge and being able to walk and touch the stones and pop to the pubs and shops of Avebury. Silbury Hill is also close by.
  • Beautiful Cotswolds town of Tetbury with its Highgrove shop. Classic market town of Marlborough with great artisan high street. Bath for Romans, Theatre Royal, Holburne museum. Swindon for Outlet Village. Longleat for Lions.
