This lodge has a large open plan kitchen/diner/living area. It has a well-equipped kitchen stocked with everything you'll need during your visit. You’ll enjoy modern facilities with flat screen SMART TV’s, Wireless Bluetooth Speakers and recently upgraded wireless broadband access. Underfloor heating and an electric fire makes this lodge cosy even in winter. Farleigh lodge has its own private patio overlooking one of the 3 ponds and the fields beyond.
We pride ourselves on being child-friendly and are keenly aware of just the type of equipment that helps make your life easier and like a home-from-home. Wooden cots with good mattresses are available for babies up-to 18months (travel cots for the older babies), along with high chairs, changing mats and sterilisers. We have plenty of each item so do let us know before you set off your exact requirements. A selection of outdoor ride-on toys are available and guests are free to roam the grounds and say ‘hello’ to our chickens.
Less than three miles away is the vibrant town of Frome. With its historic buildings and beautiful independent shops, alongside a thriving contemporary arts scene, it has been highlighted as one of the ‘Best Places to Live in Britain’ by The Times. Frome is also the original Somerset Market Town, and this tradition continues today with regular weekly markets and, on the first Sunday of each month during the summer, ‘The Frome Independent’ - a mini festival bringing together the best artisan food and drink, artists and designers, local produce, plants, home wares and street entertainment.
A ten minute drive takes you to the famous Longleat House and Safari Park for which the owners of By The Byre are able to offer their guests a 20% discount on a one day ticket. The splendid Georgian City of Bath with its museums, street cafes, boutiques and Roman baths is 12 miles away, and within easy reach by car are a number of visitor attractions such as Wookey Hole, Cheddar Gorge and Stonehenge, and historic towns including Bradford on Avon, Glastonbury and Wells.
