We booked a weekend here for 8 friends, who were planning on meeting, we all lived around the UK and one of us actually flew over from Sweden to visit, and I can happily say we were all blown away with how beautiful the place was. We stayed in the Round Chimney’s Farm House, with 5 bedrooms and 12 beds, This place was PERFECT for us. Little did we realise how fantastic our stay really would be. The online photo’s just don’t do it enough justice. Our arrival was early because we were so excited for our weekend to begin, in which Rachel welcomed us and showed us the on site Café & Shop whilst we waited, we enjoyed a pot of tea and appreciated the beautiful shop, selling cakes, lunch, and meat and cheese from the farm, as well as the stunning paintings and art for sale on the walls. We were then given access to the house which we must of ran around several times just to take in it’s beauty. Everything was clean, well-made with bedding, towels and throws if needed, the lighting and space was perfect and the gift of a late of flapjacks per person went down a treat. There was everything you needed and more, all dining needs plates, cups, mugs, cutlery you need not worry. We all had the chance to pet and was also offered an onsite tour of the farm with the animals, on the way in you can visit the Donkey’s and a friendly Goat, moving onto the cows who certainly know how to sound a friendly hello, moving onto the baby goats. We were lucky to find one of the cow had given birth whilst we visited, on site there are 3 dogs who roam the farm who we all instantly fell in love with and even invited them inside to grab plenty of cuddles and belly rubs! As our guests slowly arrived from travelling they each had the same reactions running from each floor oohing an aahing at the house. The games room was defintatley a big reason for choosing our booking, entertaining us all weekend with matches of pool and using the living room for movies in the evening. We made use of the outdoor fire pit in the evening and roasted marshmallows and made shmores. We were invited on the Saturday to a Pub Night the Farm was hosting to celebrate their 1 year anniversary of the Café & Shop with drinks and a local pizza van catering which is the only disappointment we had as we we’re told order would be ready at a certain time, and once ordering yes I know ALOT, but 8 pizza’s we were told he could only make 1, so we luckily found a takeaway open to deliver, which being away from town was hard to track any late food places, but was to NO fault of the farm itself. The owner was so friendly and welcoming, and honestly has such a warm presence and made us all feel at home, not one of us wanted to leave, and spent many hours continuously visiting the cows and goats, we did however on the Saturday spent the day together at Longleat Zoo and had a fantastic time, however the cows and goats were first on the agenda when returning to the farm that evening. Thank you very much for an amazing stay! The price was perfect for us, the stay and the beds.. oh gosh we all agreed it was the best nights sleep we’ve had with the most comfortable beds and bedding and the showers were heaven! I think we must of all showered a thousand times over! 5 STARS recommend anyone to visit and stay here, suitable for families and children too, though we were an ALL adult group, the games room had plenty of toys and books for children, TV’s all had Freeview and there was an Xbox 360 too with some games to play and able to play DVDs which we brought, also access to a travel cot, gates on the stairs and an ironing board, iron and hair dryer was available if needed.

Spent a long weekend here with my family celebrating a 50th birthday. Round Chimneys is a very well equipped, listed old period farmhouse situated on a working farm. Large bedrooms with really comfortable beds. warm central heating throughout with the added bonus of wood burners. The large kitchen is very well equipped with everything you could need. There are ample bathrooms situated over 3 levels with stairgates. There is a small games room with pool table and plenty of books, toys, games etc., free WiFi and the property is dog friendly. This house is hundreds of years old and furnished sympathetically. Don't expect the furnishings to be pristine, you could describe them as 'careworn' but I think it is in keeping with the style of this old building. There is plenty of parking close to the house which is set in stunning countryside. Owners are always on hand and are very friendly and welcoming. The small farmshop/cafe on site is worth a look. The lovely town of Sherborne is only a 15 minute drive away. I would definitely stay here again.

Enjoyed a relaxed family stay cation is both the houses, it was A-MAZE-ING❤️All I can describe it was like being in a film. As a massive animal lover myself, I got to meet and greet all of the animals, they were beautiful and also a big thank you to the farmers/owners who were lovely and walked us around the farm. The cottage is clean tidy and always a joy to be in. Most definitely cannot wait to be back for next Christmas!!

My family have stayed in The Farmhouse at Round Chimneys Farm several times now, it is amazing I can't recommend it highly enough, Rachel and her family are the best hosts, allowing my grandchildren to feed the lambs, collect the chicken eggs and have tractor rides! The Farmhouse is fully equipped with everything you could possibly need, the house is spotless with beautiful white sheets and plenty of thick white towels, I have recommended many friends who have also been more than once.

Ideal place for relaxation, scenery, and enjoying the cafe and seeing the farm animals. Highly recommend Edit. Clean and well equipped amenities too Thank you
