Withy Mills Farm

 Self Catering Cottages

 

Nestling in the folds of the Cam Valley, Withy Mills Farm self catering cottages look out towards the surrounding countryside from the Mendip Hills down to the Somerset Coal Canal basin in the depths of the valley. Tom and Debbie Lawrence welcome you to their home; each cottage enjoying an extensive view across this rural landscape. 

 

Wharfingers, Whippletree and The Engine House are at the heart of Withy Mills Farm, a working dairy farm dating back to the 18th Century. The farm lies one mile from the village of Timsbury situated between Bath and Bristol. The cottages have been sympathetically restored from stone farm buildings to provide delightful accommodation for 21st century living. Original stone and joinery have been re-used where possible and traditional methods used to bring the buildings back to their former glory.

Timsbury has a strong industrial heritage with reminders of a bygone age all around the farm. Mining was an important industry here during the 19th century and both the canal and railway were in operation at that time. Now the old mining batches (spoil tips) and the canal basin have become a haven for wildlife.

The area is a great place to enjoy your holiday. From the grandeur of Bath to the delightful small villages to be discovered there are activities to keep everyone occupied. Many sports including golf, horse riding and swimming are available in the vicinity. Shopping in Bristol and Bath is close at hand and of course the historic legacies of both cities are open for all to explore.
