Large Double Bedroom with en-suite Shower Room

A Grade 2 listed Sixteenth Century Farmhouse in Marsworth. Built by the Rothschilds family for their blacksmith, the original forge still exists but is now used as a Dog Grooming Parlour (Dazzling Dog Groomers Ltd). It had been a family home for a local farmer who sold it when they remodelled a barn as their new home and sold the farmhouse. I purchased this characterful home on a farm comprising cattle, horses, lambs, various farm and domestic dogs and cherish this as my escape to the country.

2 Large bedrooms are available in this quirky Grade 2 listed farmhouse. It was built in the 16th Century Elizabethan period and prominently features on the landscape. It can be seen at hight from the picturesque Startup Reservoir and nature reserve . It was later purchased by Lord Rothschild for his blacksmith. More recently, owned as the family home of a local farming family who sold it 3 years ago and still live and work on the farm in the 2 neighbouring properties. The farmhouse was updated in 2021 but still retains its charm and charisma.

Dogs are welcome at Startop Farmhouse and is home to three. Izabelle and Alfie the Bichons and Dexter the Standard poodle. They are all single coat, curly coated dogs known to be "hypo-allergenic" and live and sleep downstairs with the host. You are invited to bring your dogs with you and they can use the garden but please keep your dog with you at all times. I can provide water bowls and beds on request. If you are planning a walking holiday and you would like your dog groomed on the day you leave then ask for availability and prices.

I am a dog lover and groomer. I am an honest, friendly guy who is happy to recommend local walks, restaurants, pubs, attractions or even take-aways.
