The Barn

The Grade II listed Barn and stables are tucked away in the conservation village of Folkingham. Brushing away dust and the cobwebs during rebuilding, the owners discovered ancient stonework in the walls, apparently 'recycled' in the 17th century from the Norman castle in the village.

Perfectly restored, but with the advantages of underfloor heating and excellent modern plumbing, apart from a separate sitting room, the rest of the barn is open to the roof with a large dining table at one end, and an open fire surrounded by sofas at the other. Antique oak furniture graces the interior, suffused with light through numerous windows and French doors lead guests out of the kitchen into the sunny courtyard garden.

Simply stylish guest rooms, each with excellent power shower, include a twin or double bedded room, and a single room in the wing of the attached stables. Double room enjoys views over the field of grazing Jacob sheep to the church, which is floodlit after dark.

Quality toiletries, crisply laundered bed linen and soft towels are provided in the bathrooms. A Jacuzzi is featured in a separate bathroom for guests, with a small charge for use.
