South Farm Holiday Cottages and Fishery Omdömen 

We arrived to snow for our third trip this year .
And our welcome was fantastic as usual.
Then storm Burt was on us .
Fishing was slow but we tried and failed lol .
Undeterred we tried again and failed.
The back up plan came in good use visiting lots of the local inns
Good times and more memorys made.
Thanks for a relaxing time .Will cu in the spring. Mark Roger and Scott.

We loved the location of the farmhouse, beautiful and so quiet. But the roads all the way around the area are awful, very narrow which is okay but there’s so many potholes, you have to be very careful driving.
The farmhouse is very old and quirky, the grandchildren had such fun playing hide & seek. Being an old building there is always something that needs doing and the manager Justin has a good list of things that need doing to the house. I would say that the company needs to not advertise the AGA in the dining room, we were very excited at the prospect of using it as we have had one in a previous home of ours, but we were only told on arrival that it is too expensive to run and you need to pay extra, at no point in booking did it mention paying extra to use the AGA!
The hot tub is glorious and the children loved the barn play area and the outdoor playground, the swimming pool sits in a beautiful position overlooking glorious countryside, but out of use because of the time of year, but in the summer months it must be a wonderful place to spend time.
We had a very special and wonderful holiday at South Farm and would love to go again.
Justin the manager is amazing and such a kind and helpful man, thank you for all your help and support during our stay.

Had a great time with Pippa and Justin wather was not the best , fishing was great. place is nice wil be back thank you so much

Cottage and views stunning
Days out in surrounding areas very enjoyable
Pippa and Justin perfect hosts thinking of tiny details in cottage and on arrival adding to a warm welcome
However I feel like many other fishing holiday venues the emphasis is on large carp too much I fish mainly on pole and caught a 15.4 carp but felt there is not enough 1-5 lb fish to be caught I am an experienced angler and feel capable of catching in all scenarios but I felt disappointed with the roach skimmer and bigger bream tench Rudd crucian carp quantity that I feel should have shown up at some point commercial fishing is quite easy I find but was left a bit disappointed with my results . Would I return for the cottage views days out then yes for the fishing I would have to take a long hard think about it .

The accommodation is fine but nor suitable for those who cannot get in a bath to shower. The situation is beautiful and if you just want to fish idyllic. However, it is isolated and approached by very narrow roads, some of which are single track with passing places.

We had a great weekend at South Farm. Brilliant accommodation, beautiful surroundings and fantastic fishing. Justin and Pippa were great hosts with Justin offering lots useful advice towards the fishing. Looking forward to returning next year.
