Information

Stratton Farm is a 200 acre former dairy farm, and the Doble family have lived here for over 100 years. The guest rooms have seen many changes. In the past these rooms have, as their names imply, stored malt and cheese. The cheese was made downstairs and the large ‘truckles’ were hoisted to the store room by means of a pulley system that still exists today.

The malt room overlooks the stables, occupied by the family’s horses, and calf sheds which are now used for general storage.
There are often sheep on the farm, there may be six pet ewes and lambs and during the winter months 200–300 sheep graze the fields. The beautiful cities of Bath and Wells are within easy driving distance as are Cheddar and Wookey, famous for gorges, cheeses and caves, and Glastonbury for the ‘Tor’, sheepskin and the festival! The rugged Dorset coast with picturesque villages is about an hour away.

We hope you enjoy your stay and will visit again.
