About the host
Hosted by Jane
We purchased The Old School House in 2016 and it has been a huge renovation project for the whole family! James and I live here with our 3 boys and I work from home, so I'm usually around if you need me! I'm happy to help with any advice about nearby places to visit.
Why they chose this property
Newly decorated and furnished with everything you could need for a comfortable stay! King sized bed and Egyptian cotton bed linen, TV/DVD player, games, a well-equipped kitchen, lovely patio area and those amazing views across fields make this a lovely home-from-home!
The Church School was built in 1848 and is now our family home. The newly-built Old School Loft stands on the front of the property, where the older children used to access classrooms before that part of the school was demolished in the late 1960s/early 1970s. We love the history of our house and we're happy to talk about it if you want to know more!
