Groom Cottage

A newly refurbished former stone barn with high-speed internet and its own hidden courtyard.

Lovehayne Farm is hidden away from the road in its own private valley, with exclusive access to about 100 acres of grass and woodland. Guests can explore meadows, streams and woodland tracks, including a playground, tennis court, forest school and woodland adventure play space.

Nestled in an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty, it’s just 3 miles from the coast and the Jurassic Coast.

An ideal place to stay when attending one of our retreats or for families, friends and colleagues seeking freedom to enjoy a safe space, the wonders of nature and endless activities and adventures nearby.
