Stylish cottages, countryside views, wood burning hot tubs, 20 mins to Cambridge
The six barns have been built with an eco conscience, with timber frame structures and recycled building materials. They are fuelled by a biomass boiler using renewable energy (which keeps the underfloor heating toasty warm).
Each barn has its own unique name, character and style, with 2 bedrooms, 1 bathroom and an open plan living area and kitchen. Matilda Studio offers open plan living and sleeping, while The Sheringham Hut provides a contemporary glamping space (shares facilities with Lily Barn). Amba Barn has a large table that can seat 12 people and a larger living space in which to congregate as a group. A trestle table can be added on request, increasing this number to 16, however if you wish to dine as a larger group please let us know, and we will try to accommodate.
There is plenty of outdoor space in which to venture and relax, with lovely undisturbed views of the open countryside. A rustic BBQ, fire pit and covered dutch barn with picnic bench seating, allow for a wonderful alfresco experience. You will have access to three gorgeous wood burning hot tubs.
