Farnham House

About this property

A beautiful and eye-catching 5-bedroom house built in the Arts and Crafts style in approximately 1902. It retains much of its original charm but with all the facilities to provide a comfortable and well-equipped holiday home.

An outstanding period property in a great location. Farnham House is close to the beach, shops, cafes and galleries of Beer. Interiors are beautiful with Cape Cod style decor taking inspiration from its coastal location. This fabulous bolthole has five boutique style bedrooms sleeping nine guests.

Accommodation is over two floors with a spacious sitting room with central chandelier, stripped wood floors and soft comfortable sofas for a relaxing vibe. The kitchen is lovely with plenty of work space and a Belfast sink and the dining room is elegant with a large table to seat ten and a beautiful French style armoire. Step out onto the pretty front courtyard with its bistro table and chairs - perfect for relaxing with an aperitif. This dog-friendly property ticks all the boxes for location and style… there’s even parking for two cars… a rarity in Beer!

Beer is a traditional fishing village in a sheltered bay on the beautiful World Heritage Jurassic Coast. The port dates back to the 15th century and is charming with its beach huts and colourful boats washed up on the shingle. Stroll around the independent shops, galleries and cafes, take a walk along the dramatic cliff hugging coastal path to Branscombe beach. Branscombe has a couple of good pubs and a dog-friendly beach with a great cafe serving fresh seafood. Take a fishing trip or delve into Beer Quarry Caves, just a short drive away.
