With a total living space of 300sqm, the award-winning Stone House, designed by de Blacam & Meaghar Architects, provides optimum spaces for both individual privacy and relaxed communal gatherings for a group of up to 8 guests. It is set on 3 acres, a small parcel of the wider 70 acre farm estate, that also contains our vegetable gardens, greenhouse, hen run and beehives – all of which guests are welcome to explore.
