the Rural business awards - regional FINALISTS! - BEST rural TOURISM BUSINESS AND BEST rural DIVERSIFICATION PROJECT’ - 2019We were finalists in both the ‘Best Tourism Business’ and ‘Best Diversification Project’ categories at the Regional Rural Business Awards. We were very proud to have been shortlisted for these two fantastic awards. We took the opportunity of entering the Rural Business Awards to celebrate how far we have come in a short time since bringing management back into the Hart family. We have had the agility to imagine and implement some innovative ideas and we are proud of our staff who are the ones who make it all happen.

the RURAL BUSINESS AWARDS - NATIONAL WINNERS! - TRIUMPH OVER ADVERSITY - 2020/21In a year when we found ourselves in the tightest of corners in the unchartered territory of a pandemic we performed at our best. To win this award means so very much to the Hart family who have endured tragedy and health issues; Jasper being a 2 x cancer survivor, continuing to battle on like a trooper despite there only being 85% of him left. This was a year when we took a leap of faith and invested everything we had in our numerous lockdown projects believing the a time would come when customers would return.
the RURAL BUSINESS AWARDS - NATIONAL FINALISTS! - BEST RURAL TOURISM BUSINESS - 2020/21We were thrilled to be national finalists in the tourism category following a challenging year adapting to the changing world we found ourselves in.

Getting back to nature on a farm makes for a great family escape at any age
"On our first morning, my reward for rising early with a sniffly child is walking out onto the deck, frost crunching beneath my slippers, the marmalade-orange sun on its way up and the lake looking mystical. White mist hums all around it, skinny tree branches reach across, and two perfectly white swans sit in stillness atop the water...."

"Hotels, campsites – and campervan rentals – are planning to reopen on 4 July.
