A note from the site themselves...

I believe Brighthouse Farm provides my guests with the perfect surroundings in which to relax and unwind, as well as a very warm welcome from myself (Odell) and Ross.

My family have farmed locally for five generations and I have lived at Brighthouse Farm since 1963. In that time myself and my family have prided ourselves on creating an idyllic setting by planting numerous trees, shrubs and actively encouraging nature which we love to share with our guests.
