Introduction
Nestled within three acres of secluded grounds, with views stretching from farmland to sea, Knotting Hill Farmhouse stands as a love letter to coastal luxury. An architectural chameleon that shifts with the rhythms of the seasons, this retreat blurs the boundary between home and horizon, the distinctive indoors and the endless outdoors.Inside
Designed by world-famous interior designers, Russell Sage Studios, this place has been reimagined as an idyllic escape, accommodating up to 18 guests in 8 individually designed en suite bedrooms, set over two floors. The signature suite was designed by Schöffel, complete with a large balcony overlooking the grounds and surrounding countryside. The large sitting room is the focal point of the property while the well-equipped kitchen and spacious dining area provide a great space for entertaining – even better when you are all dressed up in fun costumes from the decadently stocked dressing-up area!Outside
The primary ethos of Knotting Hill Farmhouse is centred around outdoor living, encouraging a life lived on tidal time, sipping good wine and embracing a moment of laid-back adventures.The north facing garden is designed for entertaining with an impressive, covered dining area which is warmed by a log burner as well as infrared heaters, allowing this space to be used at any time of year. There are also 2 large hanging chairs and a selection of giant beanbags to relax on. The al fresco kitchen area is well equipped with a large charcoal grill, Komodo BBQ, pizza oven, stainless steel worktops, refrigerator, and sink. The lower terrace features outdoor sofas positioned around a firepit, perfect for toasting marshmallows beneath the stars.
There is a large wildflower area with a path leading through to the grass volleyball/badminton court and the large, heated sailcloth tent, which can be booked as an additional extra and is kitted out with yoga mats, cushions, blocks and straps for the ultimate yoga retreat.
The south facing garden is designed to promote wellness with a central water feature surrounded by sun loungers where you can relax in the tranquillity afforded by the secluded location. This garden also features a large wood-fired hot tub, a cold-water plunge tub (for the bravest guests!), and a 10-person sauna. There is also an outdoor twin rainfall shower built from a solid oak beam sourced from a refurbished French Chateau. Even your four-legged friends can get in on the action with their very own doggy shower!
As if all of that wasn’t enough, you can also slip on a pair of wellingtons from the Le Chameau 1927 boot room and head out to explore the surrounding Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty, where you can sail amongst the creeks, swim in the shallows, and watch the splash of seals, before you unwind in a world of unrivalled comfort, your scrapbook full of new entries and forever memories.
There is ample off-road parking available on the gravel driveway and an electric car charger available for guest use.
Please note, the gardens are not fully secure for dogs, so please ensure they are supervised at all times.
