Relax and unwind in your private garden space or get competitive in the shared outdoor playbarn.

Accessed via a narrow lane, step inside the barn and settle in. Warmed by a wood burner, the lounge/diner has a TV/DVD and exposed beams and stonework which add character and rural charm. The dining table has plenty of room for you to enjoy meals together which can be cooked in the light, spacious kitchen where there is also a breakfast table. There is a washing machine for you to use after hikes and adventurous days. Spend time on the terrace and make use of the shared play area and outdoor playbarn.
