Ancient timbers, beautiful brickwork, a vaulted ceiling, old Persian rugs on a stone floor , comfy leather sofas in front of the log-burning stove – just some of the charms awaiting you in the Barn at Logmore Farm.
It’s a big space. It’s a library, a snooker room, a dining room and sitting room all in one. The compact open plan kitchen is fully equipped. And each of the three beautifully furnished bedrooms, (one downstairs, two upstairs) has its own private bathroom or shower-room.
But that’s just the beginning of the Barn experience. Walk outside to find our medieval farmhouse, built in 1464, and you’ll discover you are surrounded by farmland and the amazing woodlands of the Surrey Hills. With nothing other than horseriders, walkers and the odd cyclist passing by, Logmore Farm is a rural escape where you’ll meet a host of wildlife, from badgers and deer, to our very own ducks, doves and bees, and even the enormous carp in our pond. It’s a different world , yet so close to Westcott village and Dorking town.

Beautiful location, wonderful hosts
We spent 3 glorious autumnal days in this charming little cottage. It’s even better than in the pictures and in such a gorgeous location. Richard and Gay really are the sweetest people and went out of their way to make sure we all thoroughly enjoyed our stay. The children loved Boris (theair very gentle dog) and feeding the hens, collecting their eggs and picking apples from the orchard. In the evenings we sat outside and watched ponies trekking past. Everything about our stay was simply wonderful and we are so thrilled to have found this hidden gem, just an hours drive from London. We can’t wait to return as we now want to see the beauty of Logmore Farm through all the seasons!

Beautiful and relaxing
We had the nicest 4 night stay at the Barn in Surrey! Richard and Gay were lovely hosts. Our 2 kids thoroughly enjoyed looking for chicken eggs, petting the horses, running around and playing with Boris (their golden retriever). The 4 adults in our group enjoyed the beautiful surroundings and the hiking trails accessible from just outside the gate. The 6 of us fit perfectly in the Barn and I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend it to anyone. Thank you for the wonderful stay!

We were a family of 6 & our stay could not have been better. Lovely, charming, idyllic... gracious hosts, glorious countryside, peaceful & quiet yet with easy access to motorways, trains & places of interest. Really was a special treat to stay there.

The perfect getaway in the most beautiful part of surrey
The property is located in an ideal location for walking and sightseeing and yet is also close to Dorking and Guildford. Many good pubs with great food close by.
The main living area is warm, spacious and comfortable and perfect for socializing, we certainly found this property and location to be a real holiday; we all came away relaxed and pleased with the experience, a definite venue if we decide to get back together in this part of the country.
Highly recommended.

Amazing week at a fantastic location and hosts - an absolute treat in all regards
We had an absolutely fantastic time! It is a truely hidden gem and if possible we would give it 6 stars. It is more expensive than some alternatives that look similar... but nothing we have seen can match the surroundings, setting and character on offer... and the hosts! Don't really want to share too much more - go there and get an unforgettable week. Perfect for anyone who wants a quiet time, be active (trails and walks), have children (feed hens and fish, play in the field... go discover!)... or just enjoy looking out out over the grounds in the evening, with pheasants, horses, sheep ... in the background. We will most definitely come back!

Beautiful Country Retreat
My family loved staying in Richard and Gay's converted barn in Surrey. The place was clean and airy and beautifully decorated. The main room is spacious with several couches, a large dining table and a pool table. The bedrooms are not large but each one has its own bathroom, which was an added bonus. The barn is nicely appointed and comfortable but the grounds and the surrounding area is what make this place really special. The countryside is gorgeous and the gardens are wonderful. There are horses, chickens and ducks on the property and even an adorable puppy, who we met far too late in our visit. There is a walking/riding trail that goes right by the barn, which we took for a nice hike over the top of the hill. We also spent some time in London, which is not far away, but was a bit of a challenge to get to because of the traffic. Next time we would explore more of the Surrey Hills and the countryside. Richard and Gay were wonderful and helpful and we wish we could have had more time to get to know them. I guess that will have to wait until our next visit!

Beautiful barn....ideal accommodation.
We were warmly greeted by Richard and Gay and their adorable puppy Boris. We were given a quick tour of the barn and then left to explore all it had to offer. Well stocked with books and cd's. A small television, which we didn't use, because we had the snooker table which encouraged lots of games, ideal for everyone. The accommodation was very well presented, clean, tidy and warm. All the bedrooms had an ensuite. The outdoor space was a real pleasure, we sat round the table enjoying the wine we brought back from our vineyard tour at Denbies Vineyard. Just out of the gate by the barn gave you immediate access to lovely walks in the woods and to excellent pubs nearby. No need for the car! Richard and Gay were on hand if we had any questions or just to chat about the area. They were friendly but gave you your own space. We would not hesitate to come back to the barn again.

The property was absolutely beautiful and so child friendly. It was comfortable and warm.
We were over for my son's wedding in Wotton House and spent a few days beforehand in Logmore Farm, which was only 10 minutes from the venue.. It was ideal for chilling out and my grandchild loved it with the space to run around and all the animals. We were able to entertain as there was plenty room and the couple that owned the property, Richard and Gay were lovely and couldn't do enough for us. I would love to go back. It's so peaceful giving you the best of both worlds - the feeling of being in the country whilst the town of Dorking is only a 10 minute drive.

Unforgettable stay in the Surrey Hills!
The Barn at Logmore Farm was the perfect venue for our family to celebrate the week between Boxing Day and New Year's. The owners were so hospitable and welcoming - we couldn't have asked for a better place to spend family time. The log fire, Christmas tree and twinkly lights added to the festive atmosphere. We would totally recommend a stay at The Barn - and we hope to go back again soon!! If you like solitude, country walks, lovely pubs and peace and quiet: this is the place. Our family rates it 10 out of 10!

Wonderful and relaxing stay
We stayed at Logmore Farm for 5 days and every single day was a joy for both of us, our daughter and 2 grandsons. 3 bedrooms ensuite, pooltable and beautifully decorated place.
Nice atmosphere because of the building, the surrounding area's and the welcoming landlords.
We will come back with our granddaughters within a few years.
