Heavy oak pillars provide a reminder of the building’s heritage, interspersing cosy sofas and a long eight-seater dining table. A brick archway leads to the bright kitchen and a doorway opens into the ground-floor bedroom, a twin, with an en-suite shower room and WC. Stairs from the lounge area take you to the first floor, where there’s a second twin bedroom, a king-size with an en-suite shower room and WC, a single bedroom, and a family bathroom. Additional wardrobe space is available on the landing.

Accessed from French doors in the living space, a patio at the front of the property spills onto an area of lawn with mature trees.

We loved our stay in the Old Granary which was really well equipped and spotlessly clean. The views were incredible and we'd love to return. Thank you to Alison for the warm welcome and also for the provisions. We also enjoyed our chats with Gordon, the owner. It is the perfect location for a relaxing family holiday.

Everything about this cottage has been designed for comfort and homeliness. The view is spectacular.
