Four of us rented Shave Farm cottage for three nights. Everything about it surpassed our expectations. Lovely rooms, comfortable beds, spotless bathrooms and a very well- equipped kitchen. It was chilly outside so the highly efficient heating was an added bonus. We had a great time.

We stayed in the 'family suite' which was very comfortable, well decorated and offered the convenience of our own front door. Downstairs the lounge area had a good size TV and a table for 4 stocked with tea, coffee, biscuits, etc and ready for the full English breakfast which was lovely and delivered hot next morning. There is also a... More

Excellent standard of accommodation in the B & B annexe. Excellent level of hospitality from James and Kate. James was in the middle of milking when we arrived and yet he still offered to make us a cup of tea; I felt that it should have been me offering to make him one on a cold and wet afternoon! Lovely...

The most friendly B and B, on a real working farm. A warm welcome with fresh coffee and biscuits. Excellent accomodation, the fresh farm produce used for breakfast, all makes for an excellent stay. Local pub great for an inexpensive evening meal.

We stayed in the self catering cottage after raving reviews from our friends who stayed a few months back. Well, the cottage is excellent, spacious, there was only 2 of us but you could easily get 5/6 in there no problem. Very well presented and clean throughout and great care taken to make your stay that bit special. It is... More

Our room was extremely spacious with everything you needed. The bed was so comfortable we didn't want to get up. Breakfast was outstanding with everything you needed. We will... More

We called at Shave Farm without prior booking having followed the signs from the main road. The welcome was excellent with tea and buscuits being provided as soon as we arrived. The farm is in a peaceful location with only the sound of cows waiting to be milked to interupt the peace.The room was comforable with a huge bed. Guests... More
