Your Pyggy stay

Your stay at Silchester Farm & everything you need to know about your visit.

Check in is from 2pm - head to the Estate office to meet our team who will assist and direct you to your pyggy.

You will have your own key, and the pyggies can be locked from the inside without a key also.

We would recommend you head to CAR PARK 1 - you can drive through the main gated entrance, where you will find the main car park on the right. If you follow the gravel path you will see our office directly in front of you.

HOUSEKEEPING

Your heating will be set to an ambient temperature ahead of your arrival. The black remote control has multiple settings:

Sunshine - to keep you warm, we recommend setting to 19 / and to press the ‘FAN’ button to 2 levels. This will keep the room toasty but comfortable.

Fan - to cool the room down, you can adjust the temperature based on whether you feel slightly warmer in the summer.

The controls should help to ensure you can keep the room at the temperature you desire, but should you need some help please do let us know.

Your hot water will be on consistently ensuring you can have a hot shower or soak in the tub whenever suits you.

You will find dishwashing supplies under the sink, but should you need any other cups, glassware or cutlery, please do let us know.

If you have a round tap - twist it fully to get hot water. If you have a long tap - you will need to lift it and turn it to turn the water on, and then fully twist to get hot water running.

QUAFFING & TROUGHING
