The space
We hope that you enjoy your visit to the property. We encourage guests to rejoice in the rustic charm of Coldharbour Farmhouse and not to expect hotel style technology. However, the house is comfortably furnished with beautiful vintage finds alongside more modern pieces. We have used quality materials, fixtures and fittings in its renovation. We do have an excellent Wifi connection.
There is space for 10 guests at Coldharbour Farmhouse. Overall, there are five bedrooms (three doubles, one queen size double, and two singles), one bathroom and a separate loo, plus a shower and loo in the separate outside hut.
There is parking space for a maximum of four cars.
One of the double beds is in the outside bedroom hut, however during the colder months the outside hut bathroom will not be working due to the high risk of the pipes freezing.
Bed sheets, pillow cases, duvet covers, bath towels and hand towels are provided. Spare sheets and towels will be supplied on any stay that is ten days or over. For shorter stays, any extra linen and towels will incur an additional linen fee. Please let us know in advance of your stay, if you need extra linen.
There is a cot bed and a high chair available at no extra charge but we will need a weeks notice in advance of your stay in order to make sure it is available to you. There is no bedding supplied for the cot bed.
No pets allowed unless previously discussed. One dog is welcome but please let us know if you would like to bring more and we can discuss this. Dog fee is £35 per dog per stay. Please note that Coldharbour is not suitable for all dogs as the garden is not enclosed and there are deer and other wild life that frequently visit the garden and surrounding area. If your dogs like to stray or chase deer, Coldharbour is not the best place bring them. Please never leave dogs on their own in the property.
There is a BBQ at the property, however you will need to bring your own charcoal. Please leave the BBQ as you have found it.
To help you make the most of your stay, please be aware of the following:
• Due to the nature of this listed property, there are a number of low beams and walkways with reduced head height. Guests will need to navigate these areas with caution.
• There is no wheelchair access into the property. This is due to the fact that there are three steps from the path down to the property. There are also three steps down inside the property on opening the front door. The width of the back door is narrow at 47cm.
• There is a pond on site which is fairly shallow, but small children will need to be supervised at all times.
• The attic twin bedroom is accessed via steep and narrow steps. (please see the photograph ‘stairs to attics bedroom’ on the Airbnb listing). It is best to descend the steps by holding on to the handrail and coming down backwards (i.e. facing the stairs rather than away from them) to help reduce the risks of slips, trips and falls when the stairs are in use. Small children will need to be supervised.
• When arriving at Coldharbour Farmhouse, the track is accessed by turning off from the main Paddockhurst road. If travelling in convoy please be aware that only two cars can fit into the entrance before the gate is opened. The track to the house is untarmacked so drivers with low cars should take care to drive slowly/ carefully.
• Our heating and hot water systems in the main house run on electricity. Downstairs has underfloor heating throughout. Upstairs the radiators are centrally controlled along with the underfloor heating. Our hot water tank in the main house holds 236 litres of hot water (enough to run three hot baths approximately). If the hot water runs out we have an emergency booster switch near the attic store room door to top up the supply. The tank will heat up again although it does take time for the tank to refill and heat up.
• The hut shower is powered by large gas canisters and the hot water there is instant, on demand. The hut bedroom is fully insulated and has an electric radiator.
• We have a security camera near the gate entrance at the top of the drive.
If there are any defects you discover, or any safety incidents that occur on site during your stay, please let us know without delay.
