The cottages have been recently converted from a listed 1820s stable block, and many of the 200 year old features have been retained. Hayloft cottage offers luxury self-catering accommodation with light and modern features including striking double height ceilings in the living area, and a state of the art kitchen. The cottages were designed to offer easy access for disabled visitors.
