It offers three cottages, two suites and two rooms within the village that have recently opened after a complete renovation.
Each room exploits its own unique character by drawing on the history and heritage of the village and with an aesthetic carefully designed by Hannah Lohan Interiors.
A boutique hotel called Wulfheard Manor is in development and will be added to The Collective in 2025.
Woolsery is a steeped in history having been first mentioned in the Domesday Book of 1086.
Centered around a Norman church, the village grew in the 18th and 19th centuries and, unusually, has the two of Woolsery and Wolfardisworthy, which are shown on the signs as one arrives in the village. Woolsery is the ancestral home of Michael Birch, cofounder of the social networking site Bebo with his wife Xochi.
His great, great grandparents built the village shop, his grandmother was born above it, and his family still live in the village today.
Michael and Xochi bought a number of properties here and have ‘breathed new life’ into in the village.
The local pub, The Farmers Arms, has become an award-winning place to eat and the J.Andrew Shop & Post Office and Woolsery Fish and Chips have been reopened.
A new farm, Birch Farm, uses traditional and organic farming principles and services the restaurant and shop.
