Stay in our historic listed buildings, lovingly renovated to provide a cosy and comfortable stay.
Both our barns are unique and have their own quirky personality, in each you will enjoy a lounge and kitchen area, bedroom and shower room.
The kitchens are equipped with a combi oven/grill microwave, fridge and cooking items and utensils along with Denby crockery, enough for a two person stay.
In addition the Stable kitchen benefits from a small dishwasher.
Outside, each barn has its own private parking area, patio and bistro seating, with the grounds around the barns very private and laid mainly to lawn.
For cyclists we also offer a secure Cycle store in the grounds.
Access to the grounds is via a five bar gate leading to a private driveway to the original farmyard. Please note that due to the historic nature and access to these buildings, we regret that our barns are not disabled friendly.
We do not allow smoking on any part of our property.

The stable welcomes you with its warm comfortable feeling, perfect for a short break.
Originally, it housed working horses and in latter years, pet ponies and donkeys. Whilst upstairs, the farm hands had their sleeping quarters, mainly on a hay mattress; don’t worry, today, you will find a king sized bed and ensuite shower room.
This building has been renovated to meet modern standards of insulation, heating and connectivity.
One quirky feature is a ground level window under the stairs, a space ideal for a dog to view the farmyard from the comfort of its bed. The lounge is traditionally furnished but with up to date technology, including a smart television and wifi connectivity. The stable is light and airy with a classic oak stable door opening onto your private patio area.
