Barleycorn Cottage sleeps 2-4 people and has a large double bedroom and a spacious twin bedroom so plenty of room for a cot or zed bed if needed. It's a cosy cottage all year round. 

Thick walls, high airy ceilings, deep slate sills and massive oak beams feature throughout.

The original grindstone

The kitchen is light, airy and modern, with an original grindstone in the floor and deep slate window sills.

Barleycorn Cottage used to be part of the old Mill itself and its fully-fenced garden was the mill pond.

For alfresco meals, there's a cafe table and chairs in the sunken part of the garden with views down the wooded leat and up over the fields. In spring, it's full of snowdrops, bluebells and pink campions.

The sheltered wooden verandah at the cottage entrance has a further wooden table.

It's fully-equipped with electric cooker, microwave, kettle, toaster, washing machine and a fridge with freezer box, and plenty of well-stocked cupboards and storage space.  Open-plan to the comfy sitting room, the cast-iron wood-burning stove and relaxing armchairs and footstools make cosy evenings. From the dining table there are glorious views over the garden, river and wooded valley.
