The space
Built in 2021, The Granary is a bespoke cabin created with many materials reclaimed from the farm itself. The design is a unique marriage of the old with the new, the industrial with the rustic and sits comfortably with beautiful furnishings, soft, luxurious bed linen, fluffy towels and bathrobes and complimentary toiletries.
For the ultimate experience and after a delicious meal around the firepit, immerse yourself in the warmth of the outdoor wood-fired hot tub, with unspoilt views over open countryside and stargazing as dusk sets in.
If that isn't enough to tempt you, take a long hot soak with a glass of wine in The Granary's very indulgent outdoor copper bateau bath, accessed directly from the bedroom. There is something incredibly blissful about whiling away an hour in a tub full of bubbles . . . sheer escapism!
Inside, you'll find a stylish and beautifully furnished open plan living area with comfortable armchairs and fireplace, together with a rustic kitchen area and breakfast bar with far reaching views through the crittal style windows and doors.

The Granary is equipped with lots of books up on the mezzanine including playing cards, games and puzzles. You'll also find toasting folks for the firepit, WiFi, DAB and Bluetooth retro radio and a Bluetooth speaker.
The inviting double bedroom (where you can view the most incredible sunrises from the comfort of your bed) offers a super-comfy king-sized bed with luxurious bed linen and generous sized pillows.

Other things to note
The wood-fired hot tub is a real experience and a labour of love! It takes around 3 hours to heat however during the winter months it will take a little longer. Should you wish to opt for something more speedy, we suggest soaking in the copper outdoor bath.
