House Facts
Sutton Barton has belonged to the Cooke family since 1955. Rooms were let for guests to bring in extra income of 8 guineas a week. Gradually the business grew and Sutton Barton was turned into a country club in the seventies complete with bars, skittle alleys, a swimming pool (now gone) and a function room. It remained very popular and was used for weddings, cricket tours, dining and live bands performed most week ends, functioning as a pub right up until 1999, Andy and Teresa Cooke bought the house in 1999 and returned it as the farmhouse it had originally been, deciding that running a pub and a farm with 2 young children was not an option. So now the house has a new reincarnation, it has been split into 3, a cottage, a farmhouse and the main part of the house is being used as the self catering unit that you are looking at today.

Milner Harris
Invited as part of a family celebration and how lucky we were. An outstanding farmhouse residence in a wonderful location. The facilities are excellent, the standard of presentation across every room has to be a must be seen to be believed. The games room area is so fabulous. This property is high edge holiday living and if you get the chance to visit then you will come away with a fantastic experience. Our outstanding memory was our little beautiful granddaughter took her first steps in life and we were there to see it.

This is fantastic place to stay. We had a group of 14 and there was plenty of room for everyone in the house and so much room outside for the children to run around. Teresa was very helpful with any questions we had and the home made scones, clotted cream and jam went down a treat! The hot tubs were brilliant and a nice break once the kids were all in bed. All in all we had a great break and would love to return
Lynne Lipscombe
The house and grounds are beautiful and everything in the house is top quality. We stayed there for a long weekend at the end of June - four generations of the same family and there really wasn't anything negative to say. Everyone enjoyed themselves from 18 months old to 84 years. The homemade scones and jam left for our arrival were delicious. The area with the hot tubs and sauna is large enough for everyone to be together when the weather is good. The kids loved the play area, seeing the cows and feeding the chickens. There were no 'to do and not to do' signs up anywhere. It is just a fantastic place to stay and I'm really hoping we will return.

Great place to stay for up to 16 people with 2 hot-tubs and a sauna plus a BBQ in the outside courtyard. Inside there is a full sized snooker table and standard pool table. The house is well equipped and the beds are very comfortable. Also has lovely gardens and a children's play area.
