About this apartment rental
The Ramshackle Arcs are Fernhill’s version of a Shepherd’s Hut. These are available to book individually or as add-on accommodation for larger groups. We have three unique Arcs available all named after the sheep varieties on the farm.
The Blue Faced Leicester & Romney Arcs both sleeps up to four - eight. It comprises of 4 queen single mattress bunks. This Arc is beautifully hand crafted from timber milled here on the farm. Insulated by wool, these arcs are warm and cosy even in the winter months.
Under sheets, pillows, and pillowcases are provided, you will need to bring your own duvet/sleeping bag & towel (towels stipulated online are referring to hand towels).
A picnic bench, BBQ & Fire pit is available with the Arc, logs and coals can be purchased from our Farm Shop. If you would like some Fernhill Farm meat, we have BBQ & Breakfast packs (inc veggie options) available as well meat to support your catering needs. Order online (must be booked in advance).
Kitchen facilities with seating options are available at an additional cost, please advise if you require.
Please note: you will be asked to confirm that your booking adheres to Government rules and that your group will follow the Fernhill Farm Terms and Conditions. We will also require names and contact details so we can comply with Track & Trace.
Located on the top of the Mendip Hills in Somerset, at the heart of this Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty (AONB) we can be found on the main road (B3134) that links Burrington Coombe with the small city of Wells. Just over 5 miles from Cheddar, 20 miles from Bath and Bristol, and 7 miles from Bristol International airport we offer real hilltop countryside within easy reach. Re-established as an eco-farm we manage this site holistically with livestock and visitors throughout the farming and event calendar year.
The farm is 160 acres comprising mainly grasslands with 10 acres of woodland, orchard and kitchen garden. 3000 ewes, 40 cattle, together with woodland pigs are our means to sell quality produce commercially to specialist and local market outlets and offer our visitors zero food and fibre miles with complete transparency and traceability.
Eco Venue with Accommodation: All the original stone building are Grade II Listed and our Horseshoe Barns are currently the main social space here offering a complete versatile venue with accommodation. Converted from the original cow sheds in the authentic horseshoe footprint, this stone barn has been in operation since 2008 and provides a year round safe space, perfect for gatherings whatever the weather.
Using reclaimed building materials, wool insulation, wood cladding and wooden floors, our central heating system is designed to use home-grown logs and capture solar thermal rays whilst incorporating rain water harvesting to flush toilets that feeds our WET System. Throughout the years we have added solar electricity, additional accommodation units, Saloon and Loft facilities and in 2020 we are excited to be able to expand our eco venue offerings.
