Geoff and I feel privileged to have been able to call Sutton Baynham Farm our home for the last 29 years. It’s a very special spot, even if we say so ourselves, in the beautiful Royal Forest of Dean - surrounded by rolling hills clad in woodland with lovely views. Our guests tell us we have created a lovely retreat from their busy lives and we take great satisfaction that our work over the years has achieved this. We work in the business on a day-to-day basis – you’ll probably have spoken to me when making your booking – and we manage a small team to strive to create a truly wonderful holiday experience for you. Originally from farming and countryside stock, we feel strongly about doing our bit to help protect this beautiful area and the wider planet for future generations. We have five grandchildren and are concerned for their future, so we have installed as much as we can to reduce both our own and guests’ carbon footprint, during their stay in this idyllic rural location.
