The Victorian Barn within Dairy House Farm is set within a 60acre working beef farm in the Blackmore Vale.

The Victorian Barn itself is set at the end of a tarmac road; however this doesn’t prove difficult for wheelchairs or other mobility vehicles. There is a gravel car park adjacent to the accommodation.

While the barn does not have an induction loop we will do our best to assist people who are hard of hearing. All information that might be needed during your stay at The Victorian Barn is written in our Welcome Leaflet and Information Booklet that can be found in each property.

Safety is important to us at Dairy House Farm therefore a 10mph speed limit applies throughout. Clearly marked speed humps are also present.

Accommodation
The Victorian Barn at Dairy House Farm has 7 Holiday Homes, one of which is a two bedroom holiday home that has ground floor bedrooms which can accommodate the less able.

Our other Holiday Homes are accessible from the ground floor excepting the Hayloft which is accessible via an external spiral staircase and The Victoria Suite which is a first floor apartment. The Holiday Homes are most suited to those with reasonable mobility.

The Victoria Suite, Helena House, Leopold House and Beatrice House are four bedroom properties. The Granary is a two bedroom property with a ground floor shower room with WC.  The Hayloft and The Brye are two bedroom properties.
No pets are able to stay in our holiday homes.
