Services
There are two holiday cottages at Stockham Farm to choose from.
The Victorian Wing of the farmhouse sleeps four in two bedrooms and the Piggery sleeps 6 in three bedrooms.
Both are situated on the farm, in a truly stunning Exmoor setting - with beautiful, sympathetic decor, panoramic views and tranquility guaranteed.
Each cottage has its own private garden area, with tables, chairs and bbqs, and guests in both cottages are also welcome to explore the farm's 35 acres, where you will find horses, Exmoor Horn sheep and abundant wildlife, including rare Red Deer which come right up to the pond to drink on summer evenings.

The Piggery has been recently refurbished to an equally extremely high standard as with the Victorian Wing of the farmhouse.
A former traditional stone barn, housing many animals (not just pigs!) it was initially converted into a home over 30 years ago.
The recent renovation has maintained all the original features, with oak beams and quirky elements in every room.
The accommodation now comprises of three large bedrooms - two on the ground floor (one twin and one kingsize) which share a shower room with walk in shower cubicle, and one upstairs (kingsize bed) that has the benefit of an adjacent bathroom with bath and hand shower attachment.
