We offer a warm welcome, peace and tranquility in our refurbished Orchard Suite with lovely views across our 8 acres of garden, orchards and brook to oak woodland, through which you can walk to the local pub in about 30 mins (5 by car).

The Orchard Suite is a converted 16 century barn attached to the house, with a spacious double and single room, ensuite facilities, generous hospitality tray, private sitting room and front door, with private parking, making it an ideal retreat for adults and families with young children.

We offer locally sourced and homegrown produce, organic when possible, homemade preserves using our own fruit and a generous cereal and fruit sideboard.
