"The Bung" is newly refurbished and redecorated in a style that enhances relaxation and calm. Set in a peaceful and sheltered area of the farm, with views of the surrounding fields, 'The Bung' sleeps 8 people. 'The Bung' has a relaxed atmosphere with a well equipped kitchen/diner which leads in to a large double aspect sitting room with plenty of books and games to keep you entertained. The kitchen has a range oven, electric hob, dishwasher and a fridge/ freezer. There is an assortment of different cutlery, crockery, pots and pans for you to use and plenty of space to cook all your meals. There are 3 bedrooms, one small double, one with 2 bunkbeds and one with 1 bunkbed. 'The Bung' has an enclosed garden for your sole use during your stay. The farm is a working farm and charity, which exists to support disadvantaged children, former racehorses and other animals. By choosing to stay at 'The Bung' not only would you be able to enjoy the tranquillity of our beautiful farm with horses grazing peacefully nearby, but you will also have the satisfaction of knowing that your money will be going towards supporting a really worthwhile cause. Greatwood focuses on educating disadvantaged children and young people with special educational needs and disabilities (SEND) through Animal Assisted Intervention (AAI), using former racehorses. Specialising in supporting those with SEMH (Social Emotional and Mental Health) difficulties, Greatwood’s innovative educational programmes are inclusive and designed for people with cognitive, physical, emotional and social challenges or disabilities, with the aim of making a real difference to their future lives and careers as well as facilitating their social mobility by challenging the perception of “success” and “failure”. By providing a unique learning and sensory experience in a secure non-judgemental nurturing environment, it gives those who have little knowledge of the countryside and animals the chance of a totally new opportunity to complete real, physical tasks whilst developing their own life skills. Greatwood operates a ‘Cycle of Rehabilitation and Change’: horses helping people ⟳ people helping horses; simultaneously providing those former racehorses that can’t be re-homed, with a useful occupation.
We had a great stay at Helen’s lovely bungalow in the beautiful Wiltshire countryside. The place is secluded and was well described - cosy for 7 or 8 eight old friends but we absolutely loved spending time there and enjoying using the kitchen and living areas. The place was exactly as it looks in the photos and is really comfortable - and we were able to do some great walking right from the door. Would highly recommend!
The location was perfect and just what we wanted. Serene and private with beautiful views. But above all Helen was the perfect host. By far the best host we’ve had in all of our trips with AirBnB. She was extremely accommodating and helping and was super quick at responding to our queries. If we could give more than 5 stars we would! Amazing stay! Also lovely having so many horses keeping us company :)
'The Bung' is three miles from the historic market town of Marlborough, where you will find a wide range of cafes and independent shops. There is also a extensive variety of restaurants and pubs. There are a couple of supermarkets in the town.
There are also a number of local pubs in the nearby villages of Manton, Lockeridge and Pewsey.
The White Horse Trail, along with other walking routes can be accessed easily from your accommodation, and Savernake Forest is a short distance away.
We would recommend travelling to 'The Bung' by car, and there is extensive parking available for you. There is a request bus stop at the end of the drive for access to Marlborough. The closest railway station is at Pewsey, which is on the London mainline.
