Broadfield is a wonderful home from home for up to 24 guests and is exclusively yours for the duration of your stay, whatever the occasion. It could be a family birthday, a reunion of friends, a special hen do, or just the chance for a countryside getaway.
The house dates in part from the 14th Century and is packed with beautiful original features – wood paneled walls, stucco ceilings and roaring fires in nearly every room. But while keeping its historical touches, our renovation means that Broadfield also has all the comforts you would expect from a boutique hotel, including huge showers, comfy beds and snuggly sofas.

The Broadfield Coach House can be hired in addition to the main house to sleep another six or seven guests, meaning with both houses together Broadfield can host 31 guests on site, plus infants.
Downstairs
On our ground floor, there are three different sitting areas for you to enjoy. Our decadent navy blue lounge is perfect for whiling away the hours in front of a roaring fire; the inner hall is a great space for pre-dinner drinks, whether with the summer sun flooding in or looking out onto a winter’s night; and our snug is a cosy room to read, catch up on some TV, or for children to play.
We have a wonderful wood paneled dining room with more than enough space for all your party to sit, eat and make merry. And there’s a breakfast room too for those who want a more informal place to dine, or even to catch up on work. The modern kitchen has plenty of space to cook, and with its table and seating provides a social space for the chef and their helpers! For parties with babies and toddlers, we can provide four highchairs, as well as children’s cutlery and crockery.
The snug, lounge and inner hallEntertainment
The library has a large selection of books and comes with a pool table, perfect for those more competitive guests. We also have a separate large games room above the Broadfield bar, with a cinema area and table tennis table. The bar comes as part of your hire on a DIY basis. Or it can be stocked and staffed at an additional cost, should you want a space for more guests to join you for a special occasion.
On top of this, we provide board games, DVDs, books, children’s toys and games in the snug, as well as a special Broadfield treasure hunt to keep our younger guests entertained. In Summer, there are also garden games, including croquet, cricket and giant Jenga. We also have a swing and slide for very little ones so that they’re not left out of the outside fun! Please ask too about a hot tub – this can either be included or hired in.
The library, the bar and the games room cinema areaUpstairs
Upstairs at Broadfield, we have nine beautiful bedrooms, all with their own identity and style. Several have seating areas overlooking Broadfield’s wonderful gardens – great for those early risers or just for a bit of quiet time away from the hubbub. Two have superking beds, six kingsize and one a double. The superkings can be split into two full sized singles if required. We can also fit z-beds and cots into many of the rooms for children or young adults (four z-beds are available on request at a small additional cost). All of the bedrooms either have an en-suite, a private bathroom or share with just one other bedroom. The six bathrooms have large waterfall showers, and one of the bathrooms has a lovely big bath for those who prefer a relaxing soak.
We ask that guests bring their own mattresses and bedding for the cots, but we do have a baby bath and baby bath seat if needed. We also have toilet steps and seats for toddlers.
We do have the option of a sofa bed in our snug in case any of our guests need a downstairs bedroom, please ask for more information.

Broadfield has five acres of gardens, which back onto fields to ensure total privacy. The house is linear in design so all of the gardens are south facing, making breakfast, lunch or even dinner outside a must when the weather is good, and the terrace has two large table and seating for all guests. The long patio faces onto our David Austin rose garden, which flowers from Summer into early Autumn, giving beautiful colour and scent. We have a firepit, so guests can use the gardens from sunrise to sunset!
Broadfield boasts two huge lawns, ideal for playing garden games, picnicking or just for lazing in the sun. The huge kitchen garden is stocked with fruit, vegetables and flowers in the spring and summer months. Further down the garden, you’ll find the summer house, a lovely place to chill out with a book, a coffee or a glass of wine. Next to that you have our few vines and the orchard – guests are very welcome to enjoy its bounty, whether eaters or cookers.
Outside our bar is a pizza oven, which guests can use (please ask for details), or we can bring in caterers to do the cooking while you enjoy the eating. Also outside the bar can be the hot tub – please ask for more details.
Broadfield has two large graveled courtyards, one of which can be used to park, although there is also a large car park behind an old tithe barn opposite the house.

The kitchen will be stocked for you with necessary supplies, such as oils, tea, coffee, washing up liquid, dishwasher tablets and so on.

‘I hired this beautiful house as part of my husband’s 40th birthday celebrations and we were absolutely blown away. Each room is perfect and the gardens are so so pretty. I was obsessed with all the interior and décor! Frances, Alex and family really have thought of everything to make your stay so special. There is even a bar so obviously that was a welcomed bonus. I 100% know I will be back. Frances was incredible from the moment I booked answering all my questions and offering so many welcomed recommendations. They have put their heart and soul into this place and it really shows. Thank you so much guys.’

‘We had the most brilliant weekend staying here in this magical place for Grannie’s 80th birthday. It was lovely to have the family reunion in such a relaxed environment – the hot tub was definitely a highlight. We all loved chatting and catching up around the firepit and enjoying games of croquet. Broadfield is a beautiful place and one I think many of us would hope to visit again. Many memories were made so thank you very much for allowing us to have such a wonderful stay.’
