About Little Edstone Cottages

Little Edstone Holiday Cottages are the result of a two year development of a traditional stone barn that dates back to the 1700's. The development has been as sympathetic as possible to the original structure: all beams and openings are in the position we found them.

The cottages are close to the main farm house, but within their own courtyard. They are ideally placed in their countryside setting with woodland and fields on all sides.

Secluded and tranquil, guests are free to explore the small woodland and landscaped grounds, which are home to a variety of wildlife - including wild deer and a resident barn owl.

All the properties are environmentally friendly, heated by a unique wood-burning/solar heating system, and many of the practices throughout the farm and properties use natural resources for their day-to-day running.

An indoor heated swimming-pool, sauna and hard tennis court shared between the properties, a small gym, a games room with pool/table tennis and a selection of board games, as well as a children's play area complete the facilities on offer for these unique and comfortable holiday homes.

An indication of weekly prices – lowest in winter to highest point in summer.  Christmas/New Year can be higher.

Bedford Corner £420 - £1020
Foxcover £390 - £920
Westend £500 - £1100
Wheelhouse £770 - £1680

Short breaks also available.
