About this property
The Loft at Fernhill Farm
The Loft is perfect for small groups and families, or as a second accommodation base for larger groups. This self contained apartment sleeps up to 6 and consists of a spacious lounge, fully equipped kitchen and dining area, master bedroom with king-size double bed, second bedroom with a set of queen bunks and a double bed, plus a private bathroom. Situated up two small flights of stairs above the Ag shed, it has lovely views across the farm.
The loft is centrally heated but also has a log burner for warm, relaxing evenings. It is a cosy, child-friendly space with plenty of natural light.
Under sheets, pillows, and pillowcases are provided, you will need to bring your own duvet/sleeping bag & towel (towels stipulated online are referring to hand towels).
A BBQ & Fire pit is available on request, logs and coals can be purchased from our Farm Shop. If you would like some Fernhill Farm meat, we have BBQ & Breakfast packs (inc veggie options) available as well meat to support your catering needs. Order online (must be booked in advance).
Please note: you will be asked to confirm that your booking adheres to Government rules and that your group will follow the Fernhill Farm Terms and Conditions. We will also require names and contact details so we can comply with Track & Trace.
Located on the top of the Mendip Hills in Somerset, at the heart of this Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty (AONB) we can be found on the main road (B3134) that links Burrington Coombe with the small city of Wells. Just over 5 miles from Cheddar, 20 miles from Bath and Bristol, and 7 miles from Bristol International airport we offer real hilltop countryside within easy reach. Re-established as an eco-farm we manage this site holistically with livestock and visitors throughout the farming and event calendar year.
The farm is 160 acres comprising mainly grasslands with 10 acres of woodland, orchard and kitchen garden. 3000 ewes, 40 cattle, together with woodland pigs are our means to sell quality produce commercially to specialist and local market outlets and offer our visitors zero food and fibre miles with complete transparency and traceability.
Eco Venue with Accommodation: All the original stone building are Grade II Listed and our Horseshoe Barns are currently the main social space here offering a complete versatile venue with accommodation. Converted from the original cow sheds in the authentic horseshoe footprint, this stone barn has been in operation since 2008 and provides a year round safe space, perfect for gatherings whatever the weather.
Using reclaimed building materials, wool insulation, wood cladding and wooden floors, our central heating system is designed to use home-grown logs and capture solar thermal rays whilst incorporating rain water harvesting to flush toilets that feeds our WET System. Throughout the years we have added solar electricity, additional accommodation units, Saloon and Loft facilities and in 2020 we are excited to be able to expand our eco venue offerings.

About the host
Hosted by Host

Andy is the full-time nomadic shepherd here, managing over 5000 sheep all across the Mendip Hills:
A lifetime developing skills and a passion for blade shearing is evident through the years representing England at international sheep shearing competitions, along with recognition from BISCA in their Long Standing Service Award 2018 for his contributions to the shearing industry.
Andy trains, teaches, and promotes multipurpose sheep and their benefits on the land. Welcoming urban faces to our rural landscape helps keep the grey Mendip mist at bay through the long shepherding days.
Long-time partner to Andy and mum to Kyle and Seth, Jen is behind the events business and is now turning her attention to natural fibres:
Products with Provenance is our holistic message to re-educate, recognise true potential and incorporate every aspect of our natural resources and the key goal of our fibre business is to reposition wool in society as a primary product rather than by-product from the sheep meat industry. Our fibre shop supplies fleece, yarns, felts, fabric and ready to wear garments.
