Catering Apartments
Chailey Common is one of the largest heath
land commons in the south of
Sheffield Park Gardens – landscaped by
Capability Brown and home to the first England v Australia cricket match- is
only a couple of miles away. This is a
beautiful place to pass the time and unwind.
You can hire a bike or, if you are brave, a tandem
at
For
the guests interested in horses, Hickstead is very close by and Plumpton ,
Blue
Bell Railway is about 4 miles away and is a wonderful day out for the family and rail
enthusiasts alike. It’s well worth a
visit.
Infact
there is so much here in
Fawn Farm
Cottages has two Holiday Cottages which are conversions from a Calf House and
Bull Pens, hence the names Calf Pen and Bull Pen
The Calf Pen
is the larger of the two properties. Both
the properties lie on one floor, the ground floor and are therefore also
suitable for wheel chair access.
We welcome
pets and have regularly had Dogs visit.
We have also, rather surprisingly, had Cats to stay but so far nothing
more exotic. We would consider anything,
so do ask.
Included with
both are Bed Linen, Towels and Tea Towels. Fuel and power are also with in the
cost.
We have two rescued Dutch Rabbits
who have a rather grand pen. They
are tame but unfortunately do not like strangers.
Guests are welcome to sit and watch them as they amble round their
enclosure.
We also have
two pet sheep, Skippy &Lucy and a lovely horse called Twiggy. When we have Orphan lambs guests are welcome
to help bottle feed them.
We have a
vegetable garden and if produce is abundant we often find ourselves giving
veg/salad away to guests.
Communal Playground
There
is a fantastic Play Ground where younger/smaller guests can spend some energy,
along with a trampoline. Adults must
accompany children at all times when they are using this apparatus.
We
run Fawn Farm as a small farming concern predominately selling hay and running
a Livery Yard (We
have 3 horses in livery) and we hope to build up our sheep flock to include, in
the next couple of years, productive sheep.
At the time of writing this web page we have 2 bottle lambs, Harry Smith and Finlaly Brookbank, (Don’t ask why these names, our youngest
named them)
We
have two lovely cats (Oddball and Dipstick) a fantastic German Shepherd who will play ball all day with anyone who has the
time. He is called Rommel.
The Calf Pen
There are two
bedrooms (one Twin and one Double), the Double Bedroom boasting a Four Poster
Bed, a Dining Living room, A bathroom with an over the bath shower and a fully
equipped kitchen. Laminate flooring in
the bedrooms and living area, tiled under floor heating in the bathroom and
kitchen.
There is a
high chair and a travel cot. Electric cooker and hob, microwave, dishwasher, washing machine,
freezer and fridge. There is also
a private enclosure with picnic table and parking for 2 vehicles.
There is also a
Sofa Bed in the Dining/Living room so the property can sleep up to 6 plus a baby
but 4 is the ideal no.
The Calf Pen
can be booked along with The Bull Pen if there is a large no of you. Potentially then we can take up to 10 but 7
would be more comfortable.
The Bull Pen
Although the
smaller of the two properties, in our opinion, it is the most appealing. It has its own small courtyard which is
pretty, private, a sun trap and a wind break.
There is a
double bedroom, a bathroom, and a dining/living/kitchenette area.
There is a
high chair and a travel cot. Electric cooker and hob, microwave, washing machine, and fridge
with freezer box. Parking available for one vehicle.
