Why Our Bedrooms Have Their Own Names

From farm trees to shire horses: the inspiration behind our bedroom names

When creating Pasture House Holiday Cottages, we wanted our cottages to feel welcoming, homely, and full of character — not like staying in a hotel. One of the ways we’ve done this is by giving every bedroom its own name.

More Than Just a Room Number

Rather than using numbers, each bedroom has a unique name. This helps us in two ways:

• It makes it easier for guests to choose their preferred room layout — whether they’d like a superking bed or twin beds.
• It also means guests can pick a favourite room to return to, as each one has its own style, décor, and bathroom set-up.

Bedrooms at Pasture House

Many guests are surprised to find that Pasture House has three floors, giving plenty of space to spread out:

Ground Floor – Willow, ideal for those who prefer not to use stairs.

Middle Floor – Field Maple, Whitebeam & Silver Birch, each with different layouts and larger bathrooms (bath, shower, toilet & twin vanity units). The Silver Birch room features a slipper bath!

Top Floor – Beech & Oak, tucked away, full of character and charm.

Every bedroom in Pasture House is named after a tree from the farm, reflecting the rural setting and our close connection to the landscape.

Bedrooms at The Stables

At The Stables, all rooms are on the ground floor — perfect for ease of access. These bedrooms are named after the two shire horses that would once have worked on the farm and lived in the very building that’s now been beautifully converted into holiday accommodation. It’s a little nod to the history of our cottages and the heritage of the land.

Choosing the Right Room for You

With varied décor, bathroom layouts, and bed options, every bedroom has something different to offer. Some guests love the cosy feel of the top floor rooms in Pasture House, while others return year after year to “their” favourite space. By naming each bedroom, we’ve made it simple to find the one that suits you best.

✨ Whether you’re planning a family gathering in Pasture House or a relaxing break in The Stables, our named bedrooms help make your stay feel that little bit more personal.
