Colcombe Abbey Farm is a small family run farm, we are predominantly dairy (you are welcome to come and see the cows being milked) with a 90 Friesian herd, a small number of beef animals (75), 5 Suffolk Punch horses, a rare breed that pull our wagon weekdays from Colyton tramway station to the town centre. We also have a speciality wedding carriage available for booking. We have four dogs (a Spaniel, a Jack Russell, a Dalmatian and a Kelpie x Collie) which are not allowed around the mobile home. There are six free range chickens running around and you can always hear the birds singing.
The three bedroom mobile home sits on a large grass paddock (85ft x 45ft). It is fully equipped, inclusive and has a full valet on change over day. Just outside there is a picnic table, bar-b-cue and a large trampoline.
