Breakfast Award

We are delighted to announce that we have been awarded the newly launched Breakfast Award by Visit England. Only 7% of B&B establishments throughout the country have received this award and the girls are thrilled that their quality breakfasts have been recognised in our recent assessment.
The fact that we source the majority of the components of our breakfasts from the local farms has paid dividends. Hayway Farm in Broadway and our own local Mabels Farm in Back Street have maintained their high standard of produce and we are pleased to keep using them.

The Folly Challenge


The recently launched Folly Challenge has been added to our breakfast menu. This option is so stacked that we had to buy new plates to fit everything on!
Several guests have risen to The Challenge and have only just managed to finish their breakfast. Check out the menu to see what all is included.
Can you manage the Folly Challenge? We look forward to welcoming you to the Cottage and we will ensure that you have a great break with us. Click here to see the whole breakfast menu.

Go on holiday on an egg.

If the thought of a big breakfast is too much for you when you stay with us why not go for the boiled egg option. We now have fantastic double egg cup holders which look the part with the large eggs that we get from Hayway farm in Broadway.

Fresh Fruit & Veg


For those guests who are having evening meals with us these days they are able to enjoy our home grown fruit and veg. New potatoes, cucumber, tomatoes, courgettes, chilli peppers and rhubarb are all used in the cooking just now.
Another couple of weeks should see the addition of apples, pears and plums to make the seasonal crumble even more delicious.

Nature on the Doorstep


For those of you who are visiting us soon please make a point of looking at the nest in the front porch with the five young baby birds. They are a delight. They are getting constantly fed so make sure and keep your head down as the parents make their approach flight!! This is the second year in a row that the same nest has been used so quite possibly the same parents.

The Garden View


The view from the bedroom windows is getting better every day as the garden bursts into colour. The lilac tree is looking great and the peony roses are just starting to bloom. The main roses have still a way to go yet but the new climbers on the patio trellis are taking off really well.
When you arrive why not check out the progress of my Kiwi plant which is growing up the wall of the Orchard Apartment. Last year in the greenhouse it grew 6 feet tall so I am looking for improvement outside this year.

Lazy Hot Summers are on their way

The BBC have predicted that we are all set for some lovely hot summer weather this year. So we at Folly Farm Cottage are looking forward to welcoming you and hope that you will be able to use the patio and barbecue area at the bottom of the garden.
The coals have been bought and all that is needed now is the food and you.
Come and visit soon and enjoy a peaceful relaxing pampering time.
