Company information

OUR STORY Have you ever wondered what would happen if you really did take that leap of faith? Our leap of faith happened eight years ago when we found this amazing farm. Having worked in “corporate life” for many years (in fact, we met in a glossy high rise in Euston many moons ago when offices and suits were still a thing), we always yearned for a more rural life, one where we could set down roots. I mean, I didn’t think Howard meant literally, but it turns out the “tree-change”, as they call it in Australia, really did mean buying a whole load of trees and doing something with the land. Since then, we have made it our home and brought to life this cute corner of Devon with a rural, diversified family business that we love. We are so lucky to live here and be able to share this space with our guests. Fiona & Howard

Property information

ABOUT BOWHAYES FARM Nestled in the East Devon Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty, Bowhayes Farm is more than just a cider orchard. This family-run farm offers a wonderful escape from the busyness of everyday life. Stay awhile for a coffee and some delicious homemade bakes on our Coffee Deck, or stay a bit longer in one of our 5m Bell Tents, complete with king-sized bed, lining and all the essentials. All discretely nestled in amongst the trees in the stunning cider orchard with views across the East Devon countryside - listed as an area of outstanding natural beauty (AONB). In addition to the bell tents we also have a romantic little Shepherd's Hut with double bed, tea and coffee maker and wood burning stove. We are also the home of Bowhayes Trees – a specialist tree nursery selling fruit and ornamental trees, giving you a little bit of beauty to take home with you. As for the Cider, watch this space… after years of providing cider apples to others to make the apple nectar, we are now working on our own
