Accommodation Comprises:

Fieldgate Farmstead comprises a Grade-II listed Georgian farmhouse with a modern extension and an older barn. The properties can either be rented out together or separately.

Fieldgate House:

Downstairs:

  • A typical Georgian entrance is given a modern twist with a glossy hot pink door opening into the spacious and welcoming entrance hall.
  • The three-metre long island in the kitchen acts as a magnet for guests who will find themselves gravitating here for good food and great company. The kitchen is in the new part of the house, with high-quality appliances, tiled floors with underfloor heating, a seating area with huge sofas, and enormous windows framing the incredible view.
  • Contrasting with the contemporary kitchen, the dining room is in the original part of the house and features large sash windows, a built-in dresser, seating for 16 people, and a door that opens into the rear garden.
