'The Old Fire House ' is a period home, In the late 1800's this property was a Fire Station and then owned and operated by the Bidwell brewing company. Its uniqueness doesn't end there, the Lounge still has the original chalk walls so you can imagine all the horses it situated day in and day out.
The Old Fire House is our holiday home and we all get the pleasure of maintaining it's homely but luxurious feel. You can expect a reply from either Ellie, Kimbo or Tamsin ✨
You can turn left out the door and you are met with endless walks accompanied with countless muntjac and wildlife at every corner. Turn right and you can head into town to shop, eat and explore a bit more!.
