General Information
The dwelling house was part built in the early 17th century and was formerly an Ale House. The rest was added in the 18th century in the Somerset Longhouse style. A cow house(now redundant), stable and hay store were reachable without going outside, so the farmer could go about his business without getting cold in the winter. Eight years ago, we totally renovated the house (a pictorial history is available for guests to see) and the loft and barn have been exposed to show off their character. It has been said that the three long beams in the house were once part of the masts of sailing ships.
