Your Farmhouse stay
Your stay at Silchester Farm & everything you need to know about your visit.
Check in is from 2pm - you will be met by a member of our team who will welcome you to your accommodation.
Farmhouse stays: your door will be opened and unlocked, and left on the latch for you to enter on arrival. The master key will be left on the hook by the front door so you can leave it there throughout yuour stay onsite, and take it with you if popping out and about.
We would recommend you head to CAR PARK 2 - located directly next to the main gated entrance. This is closest to the houses for you, both located down a short path.
HOUSEKEEPING
The heating will be set to a schedule ahead of your arrival to ensure a comfortable temperature during your stay. You are welcome to make use of the kindling, fire lighters and wood in the main living room if you wish to light the fire. We are happy to do this for you if you would like help.
The hot water system runs off one boiler throughout, so if all baths and showers are run at the same time, due to the age of the building it can take some time to refil inbetween, please be mindful of water wastage.
QUAFFING & TROUGHING
Food and Drink: Let us look after every element of your stay. Breakfast served to the kitchen? No problem. A plentiful lunch or a 2 or 3 course supper - we would be delighted to create a menu to suit you. Dine on fresh dishes made from ingredients fresh from the farm itself ……get in touch if you would like to discuss an in house menu in more detail by emailing stay@silchesterfarm.co.uk
