Welcome to The Folly, a self catering holiday home. Set in a beautiful wild area of outstanding natural beauty in the South Downs National Park. With some amazing views seen from your own 20 meter deck. You will have complete privacy, in this beautiful location. We live in a dark skies area (no street lighting) we supply touches . So at night you get to see the stars. The Folly has folding doors to the front so that you have that wonderful view to look out on. The kitchen and living room share the main open space. The kitchen is fully equipped. There is an electric shower in the wet room with a wc and hand basin, towels are provided . The bedroom has a double bed and bedside tables. Breakfast is provided for your first morning. The kitchen is well stocked with the basics. Locally made bread is also supplied. Please let me know if you want a vegetarian option?
Froxfield village is the highest in Hampshire at 750 feet above sea level. We are also known as Little Switzerland. Some mornings you can wake up and be above the clouds! Our neighbor is the Edward Barnsley Workshop. Which makes unique arts and crafts furniture. The lane goes off into the Hangers (woods). And is well known for walking/rambling paths. There are many good walks in this area, and very good pubs at the end. Cockshott Lane is very well known for being the home of the 1st WW poet Edward Thomas. On the side of the hill at the end of the lane the is a memorial stone to him.
