Old Dairy

This building dates back to the 1920s and was formerly Elms Farm Milking parlour. It still has the original beams and is a great place to stay for either a couple or up to 4 people with the use of a comfortable double sofa bed.
The Old Dairy was lovingly renovated and completed in 2018. Originally a barn that once housed milking cows, it later served as a storage facility for farm equipment.

Today it is a beautifully renovated brick barn sleeping up to 4 people. It offers a completely self-contained, semi-detached retreat on Elms Farm. You’ll have exclusive access to the property during your stay, on a self-catering basis.

Inside, you’ll find a cozy kitchen/lounge area with a double sofa bed, perfect for relaxing after a day of exploring. The cottage features one comfortable double bedroom with a king-size bed, wardrobe, and chest of drawers. The spacious shower room includes a large walk-in shower, WC, and wash basin.

Outside, you can enjoy a lovely garden area at the back of the cottage, as well as a patio with a table and chairs — perfect for a morning coffee or evening drink. There is plenty of parking available at the front of the cottage, on gravel.

Well-behaved dogs are very welcome for a small supplement of £10 per dog per stay or week.

We’re proud to offer an award-winning on-site Farm Butchery Shop, where you can find a selection of our finest meats. If you'd like to treat yourself to some of our delicious offerings, just give us a call, and we’ll be happy to arrange a custom hamper for you!

A lovely review of the Windmill Cottage by one of our clients:

Perfect for us. Had a lovely evening meal at The Generous Briton which is only a short walk away. We also bought a rib of beef from the farm shop which was delicious!! Plenty of really hot water and good water pressure in the shower. Very comfortable accommodation. We will certainly return.
