Bedrooms & Bathrooms
The master bedroom has a natural, but decadent feel. With its king sized bed, sumptuous in-room feature bath and even its own private deck area complete with hot tub! In the second bedroom, the bunkbeds can accommodate two further guests, and are a fun, cosy space to snuggle into after a day’s adventuring. As well as the stylish bath in the Master bedroom, you’ll also find a separate W/C and shower room.
Outside Area
Hares Hideaway has two distinct outside areas for you to relax in and enjoy. On the main covered deck there’s a BBQ and outside dining space for you to unwind in. Behind the cabin, there is another private deck area that contains your cabin’s hot tub.

Optional Extras
• Malting Farm Nature Trail and Zip-wire
Pick up a free map from the honesty shop and then follow our fun farm nature trail that will take you around the site starting from the zip-wire.
• Brook Meadow Menagerie
If you’re keen to get up close and personal to some farm animals or small furry and feathered friends; then walk along the meadow to Brook Meadow Menagerie where Emma keeps; pigs, goats, sheep, ducks, chickens, guinea pigs and quail, it’s a great experience on our doorstep. This is seasonal and only at set times during the week (usually on Thursdays and Saturdays but subject to change due to Emma’s work and family commitments). NOT available during the wet winter months from beginning November to end March, with a few tours on during Xmas and Feb half term.
• Cycling
Hire some ‘wheels’ to help you explore the local area! We have adult’s and child’s bikes available to hire for a morning or an afternoon session. For those wanting to go a little further afield, you can also hire them for a full day. To reserve your bikes, simply add to your booking or alternatively book them on arrival, but please note that you must bring your own helmets. (NOT available in the Winter months from November until March).
• Paddleboarding and Wild Swimming
If you’re looking for a fun, energetic activity right on your doorstep; why not try your hand at a spot of paddleboarding or wild swimming on our reservoir? You can pre-book your life-jackets and paddleboards when you make your booking or book on arrival, but please note that hire is on a first come, first serve basis. We ask you to ensure children are supervised on and around the reservoir at all times and that life jackets MUST be worn on/in the water, whether you are swimming or paddleboarding. We supply lifejackets but recommend you bring wetsuits for colder weather.
• NEW! WingFoiling, E-Foiling & Paddleboarding Lessons
If you’re looking to try an exciting new sport or improve on your existing skills; why not book an adventure with our friends from Winging It Watersports. Their fantastically fun paddleboarding, e-foiling and wingsurfing or super trendy wingfoiling lessons are easy to book and come with all the equipment you need.

• Fishing
Our stunning reservoir is regularly re-stocked with fish and we welcome you to bring your fishing equipment with you when you come to stay. Fishing is free on the reservoir, but please be aware that paddleboarders and swimmers take priority (even if you are already there fishing). If you fancy casting a line during your stay, please make sure you’ve packed your own equipment and bait.
• Hot Food
If you’re anything like us, the last thing you want to do after a long journey or busy day exploring is cook! So to make your arrival day and stay at Malting Farm as relaxing as possible, we offer some simple home-cooked suppers made locally by Vicki from Amateur Country Game Cook.
