The Old Barn is a simply stunning large single storey barn conversion located on the 140 acre Holt Farm Estate and is next door to the equally stunning The Calf House (which is rented separately and sleeps six). The most incredible feature of this property is the beamed vaulted roof structure which, with such a large area, is a truly remarkable construction. The area is so big that if you do rent the other two properties as well, this room is where everone would dine together and meet up. There is also an excellent lutron lighting system with preset lighting functionality to help set the mood!

The Old Barn also has fast broadband provided by satellite as rural broadband is too slow!

Entrance Hall

Upon opening the front door, you are greated with a few steps up to the main living/dining/kitchen area and also a corridor that leads off into a cloakroom, utility room and bedroom one.

This is probably the best room for children (or people less than average height!) as one of the antique sleigh pine beds is not quite full length or width. One bed is standard single bed size (3' x 6') whilst the other is slightly smaller (2'10" x 5'10"). There is a bedside table unit, and some drawer units as well as an external door into the courtyard.

Garden

To the back of the property there is an extended patio area with a wooden table and chairs and there is also a gas barbeque that is avaliable for alfresco cooking.  To the side there is a large lawned area with a large climbing frame.

Vegetable Garden

To the rear of the property there is a gated entrance into the vegetable garden. You are most welcome to pick whatever you want to cook whilst staying at this property.

Note: To the rear of the vegetable garden, there is an obvious area that is rented to a local farmer. There are some hazards here so no-one must access this area or explore the few farm buildings and surrounding areas. 

The Holt Farm Estate is made up of 140 acres of fields of lovely Somerset countryside and it also includes a lake and its own woodlands. This is a working farm but you are welcome to walk along the estate where marked. Children must be accompanied and dogs must be on a leash.

Duck Pond

Just below Holt Farmhouse there is a fenced in duck pond with its own resident ducks!

Lake

If you venture up across the fields then you will come across a lake that regularly is populated by quite a number of ducks. This area is fenced in but you are welcome to take a picnic and sit in this extremelly peaceful area. Sometimes you may also see some of the fish that live in the lake.

Woodlands

Take a stroll up the track and take the marked paths through the woodlands. There are all sorts of trees, animals and flowers in the woodlands and sometimes some of the wild deer will graze here. We will ask you to be careful at some times of the year not to disturb nesting birds.

Fields

Feel free to enjoy the space and freemdom of our fields and walk up to the Old Bothy which the owners will probably refurbish in the future.

Note: If you have adventurous children then they must keep away from the farm buildings to the rear of The Old Barn and The Calf House. As this is a working farm, there is farm machinery, slurry pits and other hazards associated with farms. There is also a stream running through the bottom of the valley which can get very fast after rainfall so we recomend that children are always supervised.
