“Bull Pen iIvnghoe”
The Bull Pen is very spacious and comfortably accommodates 6. The bedrooms could do with a deep clean especially the carpets and en suite shower. The farm is ideally situated to explore the surrounding area. There is no entertainment for children on site.

“Love this place!”
We had a three week stay in The Bull Pen due to our house flooding. In a stressful situation this place really was my saving grace! The location is beautiful, Ivinghoe is a lovely village and the locals all made us feel welcome. The cottage is perfect for a family of 5, and with exposed beams and surrounded by a family run farm, it’s perfect for a break from reality! Paul is a fantastic host and made us feel like nothing was a problem. The park is just a 4 min walk and was a big hit little with our little ones. Right next to the park is the curiositea cafe, where you can get a great English breakfast! Buckinghamshire’s last working water mill is practically in the back garden and a great little visit - we came home with freshly milled flour. Another recommendation was the pick your own farm which is a 5 min journey to the next village, The nicest way to spend an afternoon and we came home with a wheelbarrow full of vegetables, which we made into soup! However f you don’t fancy cooking but fancy a lovely Sunday dinner and some amazing puds, then the rose & Crown is a 5 min walk. You’ll find friendly locals and a nice kid and dog friendly atmosphere. All in all couldn’t have enjoyed our stay here anymore!

“Fantastic home from home stay in spacious well furnished cottage”
A very well furnished home from home with everything you need to make your stay special. Paul (the owner), has been exceptionally helpful and always on hand, if needed. The cottage is very spacious with every facility you need and very clean. Locally, Tring is a few minutes away, a lovely town with good shopping facilities and local markets. My family and I have thoroughly enjoyed our stay and would definitely recommend.
