Wanting to ‘keep it local’ The Farmer’s Arms used our Classic Oak Estate Range from Escot Estate in Devon.
Since opening, The Farmer’s Arms, Woolsery has received much attention for its innovative mix of architecture, interior design and gastronomy. Its use of Coppice & Crown’s real wood flooring has been mentioned in interior magazines and hospitality design brochures. Following a six year closure, the transformation of The Farmer’s Arms is part of a new project by Michael and Xochi Birch, founders of Bebo in 2005.
With strong family links to the quaint Devon village that they have passionately restored, every attention to detail has been included in their designs. Requesting real wood flooring throughout their project was one of the most important design briefs given to Hannah Lohan, interior designer, and one which Coppice & Crown was able to meet.

The manor farm is a source of food for the restaurant, and the restored hotel is only a short stroll away from the shop and pub. Keeping local values and workmanship thriving remains an inherent value throughout the project and into the village’s new life.
The importance of locality is demonstrated through the use of Coppice & Crown’s Classic Oak Range which was laid throughout. A sophisticated country pub in the heart of Devon taking natural materials into the forefront of it’s design.
All of the Classic Oak Range for this project was from the nearby Escot Estate, using local timber to create unique real wood flooring for the project.
Besides the tongue and grove flooring, The Farmer’s Arms also used large green oak beams, oak posts and joists supplied by our sister company UK Hardwoods. This project was entered for The Structural Timber Awards 2019 for its use of real wood flooring.
