This was our 1st visit to South Farm Holiday Cottages and fishery arrived Saturday 7th Sept to Thursday 12th Pippa and Justin are always on hand to help you if needed They have done a lot to the place since taking over this year and the grounds and lakes look very nice Pippa added a few little extra touches as it was our Honeymoon We stayed in Cinders Cottage it is a very nice cottage with nice views out to the fields and beyond Very spacious with all you need for a stay We did a couple of days fishing on Home lake had a couple of fish although the weather was against us Would definitely recommend a visit and we look forward to going again next year Pippa and Justin keep up the good work and good luck on your new adventure at South Farm Janice Roy Kinge

Peace and Tranquility

We had a great week the Swallow cottage was cosy in every way we both slept so well the fishing was good fished every day and did not fail to catch finished every day in the hot tub and that was something else and the host Pippa and Justin went out of there way to make our beak enjoyable already booked for next year

We had a great weekend at South Farm

We had a great weekend at South Farm Brilliant accommodation beautiful surroundings and fantastic fishing Justin and Pippa were great hosts with Justin offering lots useful advice towards the fishing Looking forward to returning next year

The accommodation is fine

The accommodation is fine but nor suitable for those who cannot get in a bath to shower The situation is beautiful and if you just want to fish idyllic However it is isolated and approached by very narrow roads some of which are single track with passing places

Swallow cottage

Cottage and views stunning Days out in surrounding areas very enjoyablePippa and Justin perfect hosts thinking of tiny details in cottage and on arrival adding to a warm welcomeHowever I feel like many other fishing holiday venues the emphasis is on large carp too much I fish mainly on pole and caught a 15 4 carp but felt there is not enough 1-5 lb fish to be caught I am an experienced angler and feel capable of catching in all scenarios but I felt disappointed with the roach skimmer and bigger bream tench Rudd crucian carp quantity that I feel should have shown up at some point commercial fishing is quite easy I find but was left a bit disappointed with my results Would I return for the cottage views days out then yes for the fishing I would have to take a long hard think about it

Fun fishing in the rain

Had a great time with Pippa and Justin wather was not the best fishing was great place is nice wil be back thank you so much

Swallow cottage

We had a lovely week at south farm this was our 5th time and will definitely return next year What can I say about Justin and Pippa they are the perfect hosts and nothing was too much trouble they would do anything to make our stay just perfect The weather was against us but did not stop us fishing every day Swallow cottage is lovely and very comfortable with everything you could need during your stay

This holiday adventure is not to be missed
