Bewuthered

Holiday Rental Description

Quirky and stylish in equal measure, this unusual home is beyond the dreams of any Hobbit. Protected by its earthen mound, with a curved design and round windows, it's a perfect pod that's bound to be a hit with young families. It may be partially below ground but there's no roughing it here. Inside, it's been cleverly laid out to offer everything you could need in a neat package. There's a cosy sofa, a breakfast bar to eat at and a fabulous kitchen (how many Hobbits have a wine fridge?), along with three bedrooms and a shower room. But it's the outside space that has us longing to go back. Surrounded by the rolling fields of this working farm, you'll have your own patio with a private wood-fired hot tub, as well as a Finnish-style barbecue hut – perfect for grilling hot dogs or toasting marshmallows at any time of year. Elsewhere on the farm, let the kids run off some steam at the play area (complete with a miniature version of the underground homes), grab a bite to eat at the cafe and buy some local produce at the on-site farm shop.
