PITLANDS Farm, which lies back from the main road as it climbs the hill towards the village of Clifton upon Teme, is just the sort of place where farmhouse stays have been a hit.
Nestled into a glorious Teme Valley setting, there's a duck pond in front of the house and a Rayburn in the kitchen. It's been the home of the Mann family since John Mann's parents bought it back in the 1920s.
"I think it was about 20 years ago when someone first suggested we try B&B," said John's wife Diane. "The big change came when we were flooded out when a water course suddenly moved some time ago. That was when we decided to make a lot of alterations." Three new lodges were built and a cowshed converted. There is also a bungalow that used to be the home of the pigman when pigs were raised at Pitlands.
