The Barn, Grantham

The Barn1 bedroom, Sleeps 2 + 1 Child.

Watching horses and ponies graze from the sun room is the sort of small pleasure that gives this detached barn conversion its appeal. On the edge of a peaceful village near Grantham, it suits couples who want quiet, easy days outdoors and somewhere comfortable to return to after walking or cycling. The cottage is all on one level and sleeps 2 in 1 bedroom, with 1 bathroom, a separate dining room and a living room warmed by a woodburning stove.

Dog owners are especially well catered for, with an enclosed rear garden with mesh fencing, space for 2 dogs and footpaths almost from the door. There is even a small orchard outside the front, with cherry, plum, pear and apple trees that guests can help themselves to when fruit is in season. A well-regarded village pub serving food is within a mile, while fishing and golf are also available nearby, making this a good fit for a laid-back rural break rather than a packed sightseeing trip.
