Lovely property. Ideal for large family gathering. Very comfortable beds. Would definitely stay again.
Judith
What a fabulous place and such a stunning location. We had an amazing stay for my 60th Birthday and would recommend it to anyone . very well equipped, comfortable beds really clean everyone said what a fantastic place it was. Izzy was a great host and very helpful thank you
What a find, Far Coley Farm and Kilnhurst Log Cabin was just perfect for us to celebrate our mum's 80th birthday. So much space indoors and out. We wanted for nothing, the house and log cabin had everything you could need and more. So clean and comfortable. The owners should be very proud of themselves, I am sure their father would be. We will most certainly be back.
Fantastic property in a fantastic location. I can thoroughly recommend it. It has everything you could possibly need. I had guests from all over the country, France and Italy and we all loved it. Lyn Starkie
Danielle
Had a fantastic time. The house was perfect and the grounds are stunning.
Sophie
Far Coley Farm was absolutely perfect! Such a beautiful location and both the main building and log cabin were stunning and so comfortable and well equipped. We saw Emily briefly and she was lovely. Would definitely recommend to anyone everyone! and would be back in a heartbeat. Thanks so much!
The property served us well for a reunion party as there were plenty of rooms and it was a great base for days out too. We did find the galley kitchen cramped for catering for a party of 12.
Booked for a family get together. Great location and wonderful views. All thoroughly enjoyed the place, comfortable and warm. Hot tub was very popular. Kitchen accommodated a meal for fourteen. Would recommend.
There was dog poo on the drive when we arrived and gone off cream spilt in the fridge on arrival. The living area was small for 14 adults and the conservatory too cold to sit in the evenings. We couldnt get the heating right as it was too either too warm downstairs but too cold upstairs.
Lauren
We had a wonderful stay at the cottage. The house was very well equipped with everything we needed for a weekend away with friends. We played games, cooked together, did craft activities, walked in the beautiful local area and enjoyed the woodfired hot tub. All of the beds were so comfy and we loved the communal areas, particularly the conservatory. It is an added bonus that the site the house sits on is beautiful and so well maintained. It made the perfect spot for watching the sunset and stars. We will definitely be back!
The cottage and cabin are both very comfortable properties, in an amazing countryside setting. We had amazing time enjoying meals in the dining room and bbqs . We didn't try the hot tub, but it is very well situated.. We very much enjoyed our week there and are already trying g to arrange another trip.
Overall excellent 5 star experience, easy check in procedure, warm hospitality, pleasant stay and will defiantly visit again. need to look in to Hot tub warming up time, wood log takes lot of time and effort to warm up, procedure to fire log need to be explained properly, washing machine was listed but it was not available, if provided it would add value, need hanging hooks or towel rack and door locks is recommended in bathroom.
