You stay in the private wing of the farmhouse with views over farmland, river or courtyard. There’s a grass landing strip so it's possible to arrive by plane (by prior arrangement of course); horses can be stabled too.
Breakfast choices change often – a convivial affair by the wood-burner in the big sitting room: eggs from the hens in the orchard, perhaps mushrooms on toast with chives, avocado on sourdough with chilli and lime or blueberry pancakes with maple syrup, homemade preserves and freshly-squeezed orange juice.
Have supper at Rachel and Bill’s favourite inn The Beckford Arms in Fonthill Gifford (a 20-minute drive); Rachel gives you a helpful list of other nearby eateries, interesting shops and places to visit too.

Rachel Hall:
- You are 10 minutes from the famous 18th century gardens of Stourhead. Walk the lake stopping off at beautiful classical follies and temples on the way, visit the grotto and sip hot chocolate in the tiny thatched cottage in the trees on a winter's afternoon
- If walking is your passion then follow the ancient drovers' tracks over Cranborne Chase, abundant with wildflowers in summer. Drop down to a local pub for a quick bite and perhaps visit Cranborne Manor and it's lovely garden on the way home.
- For art you are in luck: we are 20 mins from the Hauser & Wirth gallery, set in an elegant courtyard, with gardens and an excellent restaurant. And Messums, Tisbury is situated in a magnificent thatched barn, with great exhibitions, events and a cafe.
- A trip to the Jurassic coast is a must. Enjoy spectacular clifftop walks, secluded bays, swim off Dancing Ledge, find fossils, eat fresh crab from the cabin at Lulworth Cove, stroll along the sands of West Bay and finish with a proper cream tea at Eype.
