Maythorn Farm

Sadly due to tier 4 for Bedfordshire Maythorn Farm is closed for holiday lets. Only able to have guests that fall within the government legal exceptions such as moving home, for work, can't go home, or elite athletes!

Gosh, what a first half of the year... During Covid lockdown we were able to have a lovely lovely family to stay after they sold their home in Kempston and before emigrating to Canada. The area and Maythorn opened their eyes to the countryside so much that it has changed their mind about what their dream place would be in Canada. We will keep in touch and I am sure we will see them again in years to come!! With the summer holidays heralding the easing of lockdown, and some more fantastic weather, we were so pleased to welcome holiday guests. The Lights had a great stay, after self isolating for 20 weeks they stayed with us for 3 weeks. Avid football fans we mowed a footie pitch in the 6 acre paddock, the lads also made friends with Justin, my small horse - riding lessons are on the wish list now! Dad was able to get out for bike rides in our amazingly connected North Beds bridleway network. They loved the area so much they are now house hunting for a place nearby!!! The rest of the summer we are welcoming the family of Stevington residents, returning guests from last year, new guests and more house movers in the Autumn who are looking for a bit of R&R between homes. So glad to be able to share Maythorn Farm and Stevington, in the words of a guest a 'hidden gem'. Sadly our guests who moved from after April have decided its just not right for them to travel in the current situation and we are refunding in full - so sad that they are not confident enough to book a holiday this year. Other guests who moved are coming later in the year, and we hope that anyone who could not stay this year can come in the future. Our thoughts are with everyone who has lost loved ones, or their livelihood, or has had to cope with all the other challenges this extraordinary situation had brought. ###

Difficult times... we are looking forward to July and the start of the 'school holidays' and a chance for a break away from home for families staying at Maythorn Farm. We have still one summer week available at the moment for a relaxing private holiday away from the crowds with lots of space indoors and outside.

Stunning Easter weather, our huge oak tree and all the hedges are in leaf, lots of blossom and the bees are out of the hive. Lots of locals cycling and walking, enjoying our beautiful countyside. Such a shame we cannot share Maythorn Farm with our Easter guests - we are complying with the law and not taking holiday guests until restrictions lifted, keeping everyone safe. All our booked guests have been refunded, have moved their dates, or for later dates stilk eant to cone and are waiting for more news. We are doing the right thing by our guests in these unprecedented times. If you are interested in staying at Maythorn Farm do get in touch. At some point holiday travel will be allowed again, probably UK before international.

Fantastic weekend with our Dutch guests visiting for the GP at Silverstone. One of their party dropped out at the last minute so they took our friend Richard with them on the back of a bike - borrowed Alan's bike helmet and leathers! What a lovely group of guys. Joeren had a super drone with him and took some cracking pics of the windmill, hopefully I can share them soon! Another thumbs up for dinner at The Red Lion Stevington too!

Maythorn Farm bees have been busy!
According to Richard, who looks after our hives, we have prize winning honeycomb this year. Must have something to do with the amount of nectar our bees can find on the miles of mixed native hedges around the farm (including Maythorn!) and the wildflower meadow!

Wildflowers starting to bloom in the wildflower meadow at Maythorn Farm. Purple Salsify (Tragopogon porrifolius), also known as the oyster plant which is the taste of the root when cooked. And yellow birds foot trefoil (Lotus corniculatus) so called as the flowers are the shape of a birds foot, but also knows and eggs and bacon (if you look closely the slipper shaped flowers are yellows tinged with red) - this is actually my favourite wildflower, mainly as the name it SO cool and easy to remember!

Delighted to welcome Nasrin's group from Leicester to Maythorn Farm this weekend - treating their mum to a weekend away with the siblings saying thanks to mum for all she has done for them. What an inspirational family! Currently planning an Easter stay this time with the younger members of the family. Who needs to pay Centre Parks prices when you can stay here and have all the same facilities!
