  • "The cabin is really charming, and has all the facilities one could expect, but there are one or two little problems: the window stays are broken in bathroom and living room, and one should be prepared for it to heat up on a fine day and to get very cold at night (hot water bottles would be good!"

    ). But you can adjust to these things. The proximity of the horses and hens (esp. the cheeky white one!) was a bonus. The setting is wonderful - utterly peaceful, but easy to get to surrounding sights. We don't get on with Smart TVs at all (!), but recognise there may be issues with reception via other sources. The lawn was a real bonus. Would recommend.

    Thank you for your comments and we will do what we can to rectify the window stays and we will provide extra heats for chiller weather. Glad you enjoyed your stay and we hope to see you again. Property Owner

The property

Manor Farm Cabin, a single-storey lodge enveloped with countryside, is an ideal base for families or a group of friends seeking to escape the hustle and bustle of city life.

This charming stay boasts interiors and living spaces finished to the highest of standards, with warm wood tones and finishings sure to make you feel at home from the minute you put your bags down and feet up.

Step into the kitchen/diner, with amenities set to make your dinner party a success; on a warmer evening, bring the company outside, where you may sit and contemplate how you will spend the following day while soaking in the ambiance of Berkshire’s countryside.

Afterwards, curl up on the sofa while the woodburning stove is keeping your feet toasty, put on your favourite programme before you retreat to a refreshing scrub in the shower and choose between a king-size room or a twin to rest your sleepy head.

Though it will be a struggle to leave, head into one of the surrounding villages like Great Shefford or Farnborough, not shy of history and culture and have a roam around the local shops and family-run restaurants to titillate your tastebuds.

Head to Chaddleworth Village Hall saturated with a past, and keep your eyes peeled for community events such as festivals and fetes, live music and discos.

With hiking and biking routes that are endless, there is plenty of farmland to explore so be sure to pack a picnic in-between the adventures!

West Berkshire Golf Club is just a stone’s throw away, the golf fanatics of your family will enjoy a peaceful round of golf amid foliage and breathtaking views.

Further afar is The Living Rainforest, a unique wildlife attraction housing the likes of Sloths, monkeys and pythons, to name a few, and is a real haven for photographers and animal lovers.

Manor Farm Cabin is ready to be your countryside escape at the click of a finger.

Note: This property has a Good Housekeeping bond of £150.
