Holder’s Barn sleeps four guests (two bedrooms both with en-suite shower rooms) and is approached via its own private drive and stands proudly at the end. Enter through the double French doors and be impressed by the vaulted ceiling with exposed beams, feature stone pillars and a galleried walkway that connects the two bedrooms. The bright and airy open-plan lounge/kitchen/diner has cleverly been divided into separate spaces. A few steps up take you into the lounge area where you can relax on the sofas and enjoy looking out to the garden beyond or, curl up in front of the wood burner effect electric fire and enjoy watching a favourite on the Smart TV/DVD.
The kitchen/diner has an electric oven and hob, microwave, fridge with ice compartment and dishwasher, it is a perfect place to cook a lazy breakfast or a special meal. Heading upstairs you will find two bedrooms, both with en-suite shower rooms with shower and WC. The first is a king-size bedroom and the second bedroom is a twin zip-and-link (which can be made up as a super-king-size on request).
Venturing outside you will find an enclosed gravelled patio area with seating, leading to separate grassed area with far reaching countryside views, a perfect area for children to play. Enjoy your morning coffee or a spot of al fresco dining with the BBQ. Ample parking can also be found between the garden and patio, in front of the property. We can also offer type 2 EV charging.
We unfortunately do not know too much about the barn prior to the 1960’s. What we do know that it was a threshing barn where grain would have been separated from the stalk of the wheat, oats or barley by beating with a flail. The two sets of doors allow the wind to blow away the seed casing leaving the grain to fall on the floor.
So why is it called Holder’s Barn? We could have called it the threshing barn or named it after one of the many different types of wildlife you may encounter in the area, but we decided to take a more personal route. 
Charlie & Ruth Holder were Tim’s grandparents and his grandfather a builder (seen here with Tim as a youngster peeling onions, circa 1980’s), they were such an incredibly important part of Tim’s life and would have been so proud of everything we have achieved at the farm, we could not have thought of a more touching and lasting tribute to such wonderful, gentle grandparents.
