Unfortunately, we have been victims of large scale theft in the past. As a result, we are now required by our insurers to hold security deposits with guests. Don't worry, the reasonable and normal use of the property will not result in any additional charges.

• What is the Security Deposit used for? •

Unpaid mini-bar consumption, unpaid extra guests, unpaid dog fees, unexpected additional cleaning (including, but not limited to bodily fluids) and the extremely unlikely event of property damage or theft.

• Your Private Cottage •

Guests will have private access to your Cottage. We have 4 properties open to guests on our farm, so it is a social space.

• Bathroom •

Hare Cottage has 2 bathrooms, however only 1 is included in your booking. To help us manage our cleaning changes (as we host single night stays, which is hard for us time-wise), we will open one bathroom during your stay.

This means that you may have access to a bathroom with walk-in-shower, or access to a bathroom with a bath tub and an over-bath shower. This is variable, and both bathrooms are pictured here.

Where possible we'll preference the bathroom with the bath-tub, though this depends on how busy we are.

The wooden hot tub, sauna & copper milk hot tubs featured on our listing photos is part of our 'Natural Spa Facilities'. The use of our spa is not included in your Airbnb booking price, but you can book our spa, and other extras really easily. Just let us know and we'll pencil you in.

• Sleeping Arrangements •

You may have noticed that our pricing is 'per guest' - so the more guests added to your booking the higher the booking cost per night. This is called 'per guest' pricing.

Please keep in mind that beds and bedding will be prepared for the exact number of guests on your booking to reflect this pricing structure.
