THE LOFT APARTMENT AT THE OLD KENNELS

‘The Loft’ offers comfortable AA Four Star accommodation in a private apartment above our artist’s studio. You may book the whole loft as an apartment sleeping one to four guests, or, if you are here on a course we let the rooms individually .

The Loft is a cosy welcoming apartment with a lounge, television, two bathrooms, hand built kitchen, Belfast sink, hob & oven,  dishwasher, washing machine, kettle, fridge, toaster and microwave oven, with tea, ground coffee, herb teas and fresh milk in the fridge and a whole packet of biscuits in the tin.

Relax in your own private terrace garden with far reaching views across the fields and valley.

‘Filberts’ is a cosy room with an en suite shower room and toilet, with views through its roof light high into the filbert trees which are often alive with squirrel activity!

‘Firs’ is slightly larger, has a private bathroom opposite the door, and magnificent views across the valley. Both rooms are comfortably furnished with antique and vintage detail.

Our rooms are equipped with hairdryers and bathrooms have plentiful fresh towels, hand soap, hand cream and body wash are from refillable pump dispensers. We use THE SOAP Co.  who are an ethical luxury brand that makes products that ‘are good and do good’. The Soap Co. use natural, ECOCERT and EU Ecolabel certified ingredients the range we use is from their vegan bee friendly product collection. Rooms may be made up for single, double or twin occupancy. The quilts on our beds are of course our own Alpaca, but if you would prefer synthetic hollow fibre please just ask.

Rooms may be made up for single, double or twin occupancy as you specify. You may like to order a continental breakfast hamper served in the apartment which includes; ground coffee, a selection of teas, cereals, fruit, yogurt, homemade preserves and freshly baked bread, or you may choose to book ‘room only’

Although we do not offer evening meals, there are a range of excellent cafes, bars, hostelry’s and restaurants in the surrounding area – we recommend The Catherine Wheel in Hemyock as the closest pub, and The Culm Valley in Culmstock but do book in advance!

Walkers and Cyclists are welcome and we have a large drying room and secure bike storage for your convenience. Although we do not allow pets in The Loft apartment we can recommend the rather lovely the rather lovely Higher Wiscombe who do.
