Stone steps lead up from the cobbled yard to the front door which take you directly into the open plan kitchen and sitting room. The vaulted ceiling shows off the original beams and give a spacious feel to the property. The large window looks out over the duck pond and across the farmland beyond. The hallway leads away from the other side of the sitting room to the bathroom which has shower over bath, toilet and hand basin, and the two bedrooms. One is a double bedroom with king-sized bed, and the other is a twin bedroom, therefore sleeping up to 4 guests.

The Shippon is adjoined to The Ballroom, another holiday property, which also sleeps 4 guests.

Dogs are welcome by prior arrangement (maximum of 2). A supplementary fee of £25 will be added to your invoice.
Please note: this cottage is situated on a farm therefore you are required to ensure your dog is kept under your control at all times, this includes free-range ducks and chickens in the yard where the cars are parked as well as livestock in the fields.
Furthermore, please do not allow your dogs on the furniture and do not leave them alone in the property at any time.

The farm offers turnout and stabling facilities for those wanting to bring their horse on holiday. Charges are £12 per night per horse for stabling and turnout on a DIY basis. Please contact us prior to booking to check availability for horses.
