Our property is made of 4 barns, which all have Gold Awards, and which are set in an attractive courtyard and all have their own private patios with garden furniture. They have been converted from the original old farm buildings and we were keen to keep all the character. We are a family run farm presently rearing Aberdeen Angus for Waitrose and have a flock of sheep. Lambing takes place in April and guests are welcome to be involved in this. They are also welcome to explore the farm and make use of our 2 coarse fishing lakes, or our indoor heated swimming pool. We have 2 very friendly working collies, Bryn and Skip, and farm cats. The farm is located on the edge of the beautiful New Forest and so ideal for walking, cycling and riding.

A Wonderful Week at Acorns, Pyesmead Farm
This converted barn is perfect for a couple! It is very well equipped and the location is lovely. The pool is gorgeous! There are so many things to do in the area, a week just isn't long enough! We went to a music festival, Stone Henge, a local auction, Salisbury Cathedral, the beach and many lovely pubs. Thank you Hampshire!

Absolutely amazing
Our stay was absolutely perfect! Set on a lovely family farm in plaitford, across the road from the new forest. The location was perfect for us.
Tina and everybody working on the farm were so friendly and nothing was too much trouble! We had a problem with the lock on the door but it was fixed very quickly!
There are cats and dogs on the farm who are so so friendly and absolutely love attention, and Doug the sheepdog took us on some lovely walks across the farm and over to the lake!
The property was spotless and well equipped, including some gorgeous local made hand soap! The pool was lovely, just the right temperature and with an easy booking system so you had the whole pool to yourself for an hour.
We will 100% be back to visit again!

Acorns
Warm, clean, comfortable, especially the bed. Creaky bathroom door at times when closing. Easy chairs a little low for us older people.

Great location
Very comfortable accommodation in an ideal location, very close to the New Forest with numerous attractions. The barn was very clean and had everything we needed. The indoor pool was superb and due to Covid had a booking system so you could book an hour slot each day and have the pool to yourself, which was fantastic. Had a wonderful week .

Comfy country cottage
On a working farm with enthusiastic friendly dogs, sheep outside the kitchen window and an indoor swimming pool. We had a very relaxing break.

Handy for seeing the area. Walk in the New Forest across the road.
Cosy retreat, relax outside watching the world go by, or the farm animals

Very cosy and well appointed. Spotlessly clean on arrival
This property is very well situated with many places worth visiting within easy reach. My only negative comment relates to the lane leading to the cottage. It is full of deep potholes and requires careful navigation. However, we were more than pleased with our stay and intend to return.

Beautiful barns and a lovely setting
This is the third time we’ve stayed on Pybus farm and I can’t recommend it enough. The barns are beautiful and have everything you need. There are lots of animals on the farm - cows, sheep, cats, dogs that kept my children entertained as well as an indoor pool which helped on rainy days. It’s also well located with lots of things to do pretty close by. We will definitely stay again.

Cosy and unique location
We had a superb and unforgettable stay in the authentic but modern utilized house. Helpfull and friendly owners. Funny, friendly sheepdogs and cats visiting us near the house. The sheep with lambs slept at night against the wall. We loved it.
