Luxury Barn, Countryside Escape in a beautiful village, family & pet-friendly!
Apple Blossom Barn is a beautifully converted two-bedroom barn tucked away along picturesque Spring Lane in Packington, in the heart of the National Forest. Surrounded by open countryside, farmland and grazing animals, it offers a wonderfully peaceful setting just five minutes from the historic market town of Ashby-de-la-Zouch.
Sleeping up to four guests, the barn combines stylish interiors with modern comforts, including two beautifully appointed bedrooms, a contemporary shower room, fully equipped kitchen, comfortable living spaces, outdoor space and ample private parking.
The charming village of Packington has plenty on the doorstep, including a traditional village shop, café, welcoming pub and farm shop. Just a short drive away, Ashby-de-la-Zouch offers an excellent choice of independent shops, cafés, bars and restaurants, along with its theatre and the historic Ashby Castle.
For days out, you're perfectly placed to explore the National Forest and some of the area's best-loved attractions, including Calke Abbey, Staunton Harold, Conkers Discovery Centre and Twycross Zoo.
Despite its tranquil countryside setting, Apple Blossom Barn is exceptionally well connected. East Midlands Airport is less than 20 minutes away, with Derby, Nottingham and Leicester all within easy reach.
Whether you're planning a countryside escape, travelling for business, relocating to the area or looking for an extended stay, Apple Blossom Barn offers a beautiful balance of peace, comfort and convenience.
The property sits on an enclave with two other properties and has it's own private boundary fence, parking and garden and is private to guests.
We do allow one well behaved dog but no larger than 23kg (spaniel size).
The vacation home is heated and features a kitchen and a balcony, and there's space to spread out with 2 bedrooms. Guests can enjoy a Smart TV and stay connected with free WiFi. Other standard amenities include a washing machine and an ironing board.
