Located between Bristol and London, in the heart of a designated Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty, picturesque Sheepdrove feels like a blissful new world… one in which time has stood perfectly still.

Make the most of the idyllic, oil-painting-worthy backdrop with a stay at The Boathouse, set by a lake within a 2,500-acre organic farm.

Enjoy the sights, sounds, and smells of nature right outside the huge bifold doors, with a joyful plethora of birds, wildlife, and wildflowers all around.

Inside awaits relaxed and simple comfort, with organic linens, towels and toiletries to soothe your senses. There’s a charming, well-equipped kitchenette, and a relaxing bedroom with a handy en-suite.

With no phone or Wi-Fi signal anywhere in sight or sense, you can take a well-deserved break from the digital world, as you unwind with your loved one, toes dipped in that shimmering lake.
