🌿 K is for Knightshayes!

We often recommend Knightshayes for a day out as one of our local National Trust properties - and they’ve had some exciting news in the last couple of weeks - Parkrun has come to Tiverton with the new Impey Walk Knightshayes Parkrun!

If you’re an avid Parkrun collector then this will surely be one to add to your list - a hilly trail route through some gorgeous woodland with a great post-run coffee at the National Trust cafe afterwards!

https://www.parkrun.org.uk/impeywalkknightshayes/

A free, fun, and friendly weekly 5k community event. Walk, jog, run, volunteer or spectate – it's up to you! Nearby Sunday 2k junior parkrun events for 4 to 14 year olds and their families can be found here.

K is for Kingfisher 💙

We couldn’t resist bringing this one back from the spring archives for our ABC series.
One of our nature cams caught this beautiful kingfisher down along Bathealton Stream and it’s every bit as spectacular second time around. The distinct flash of brilliant blue, the speed and the fact that they’re such an elusive visitor makes spotting one feel pretty special. Capturing one on one of our narture cameras was even better.

J is for Joy! 💚

Whether you're holidaying with your family, a big group of friends or a quiet break away as a couple, we hope that a stay at Kittisford Barton Farm is full of joy! Joy in the little things and in the big.

The joy of the stamp box challenge and exploring the farm as you complete it; of relaxing in a wood fired hot tub enjoying the sky changing colour as the sunsets; of the children finding fairy doors in the woods; of spotting wildlife across the farm, or even just from the kitchen table; or the joy of curling up in a quiet corner with a good book.

I is for Inclusion ❤️

We want The Cottage Beyond and The Nest to be a places where everyone can enjoy a proper countryside escape. For us, inclusion is about creating somewhere that works for different families or groups, different needs and different ways of enjoying a holiday. Whether that is an afternoon of exploring the farm, children disappearing off to play in the garden, everyone enjoying the pool, dogs enjoying new smells and new walks, or simply everyone coming together for some proper time away. A real holiday only works of everyone's needs are met.

That’s why we’ve worked to make our properties accessible, with accessible bedrooms in both houses and facilities to help guests with mobility needs enjoy their stay with greater ease. And inclusion is about more than accessibility. It’s about creating a space where everyone feels welcome, comfortable and able to enjoy the things that make a stay here special. We’re always learning and looking at how we can make our properties a place that works for as many people as possible because everyone deserves a little time in the countryside. 🌿

I is for Indoor Pool 🏊‍♀️

Because a holiday at The Cottage Beyond doesn’t have to stop when the weather does.

Here, the indoor pool is made for slow mornings, rainy afternoons, family splash sessions and those wonderfully lazy moments when nobody is quite ready to get dressed.

Swim a few lengths. Let the kids play. Float for a while. Then head back outside when the sun reappears.

Sometimes the best part of getting away is simply having nowhere else you need to be. 💦🌿

I is for Indoor Pool — one more reason to slow down at The Cottage Beyond.

✨I is for Independent ✨

One of the things we love most about being here is the brilliant collection of small, independent businesses on our doorstep. Not only have we got the Stawley Shop and Tea Room close by but we are are located almost exactly between the towns of Wellington and Wiveliscombe and both are bursting with opportunities to shop local, eat local and support local during your stay. Some of our favourites include:

☕ White Post Cafe
🍽 The Martlet Inn
🍖Thornes Butchers, Wiveliscombe
🛍Ruxstons, Wellington
🍎Wivey Larder, Wiveliscombe
🥖Longstraw Bakery, Wiveliscombe
🥛The Milk Shed Wellington Somerset

Because when you spend your money with a small local business, it doesn’t just disappear into a big company. It helps support a family, a farmer, a producer, a shopkeeper or a small team and helps keep those businesses part of our communities.

H is for hedgerows! 🌳

We coppice our hedgerows on rotation leaving them to regenerate for upwards of 10-15 years to regrow giving a diverse tapestry of hedgerows at different stages. This creates a wide variety of habitats for different wildlife. And the cattle love it too!

Even better, once the cattle have stripped the leaves off the branches, these get chipped providing wood chip which is used as bedding for our cattle in the winter. The following spring, this will get spread on the fields adding the nutrients back to the fields!

♨️ H is for Hot Tubs ♨️

There are hot tubs and then there are wood-fired hot tubs. We've just published a blog on everything we love about our outdoor, wood-fired hot tubs at The Nest and Yonder View. There’s a little anticipation involved before you can sink into that lovely warm water but that’s where the real magic lies. After a day exploring the local area, or even just relaxing at your property, head outside, stoke up the fire and immerse yourself in the warm water. And when the skies are clear, look up and enjoy the dark skies 🌠

Book direct to get the wood fired hot tub experience included at Yonder View or read our blog at https://www.thecottagebeyond.co.uk/blog
