A delightful dog friendly thatched holiday cottage - The Barn by the Ford

The Barn By The Ford is a beautiful thatched holiday cottage which sleeps two guests (no children aged 17 or under permitted except for one infant aged two or under), in one enchanting bedroom, with a stylish shower room. On the ground floor you will find a thoughtfully designed kitchen complete with countryside essentials such as an Aga and a marble-topped island, alongside charming touches including an optics bar for evening drinks. Upstairs, a cosy sitting room awaits with a velvet sofa and loveseat, and this leads into the romantic bedroom where a brass-framed bed, exposed stone walls and twinkling fairy lights create a truly magical retreat. The Barn By The Ford is a dog friendly holiday home, welcoming one medium sized dog. Whilst there is no outside space, the surrounding countryside and nearby village walks provide plenty of opportunities for four-legged guests to stretch their legs.
