Description

Hareley Barn is a 16th century grade II listed converted stone barn on a working rare breeds farm.  The barn has been sensitively restored, preserving the hayrack and cattle stall and a wealth of wooden beams whilst ensuring a very high internal specification.  Lovely furnishings and modern amenities provide for the perfect retreat.  The far reaching rural views across an unspoilt valley to the National Trust property of Berrington Hall provide that extra ingredient for that perfect setting.

A barbecue and seating area outside the barn ensures that you can take full advantage of the views. Children have the use of a fenced grassed play area between May and September.

Traditional Southdown sheep, Gloucestershire Old Spots pigs and rare breed poultry are reared on this farm and the farm and the surrounding countryside provide a rich wildlife.

Guest Book

  • "Thank you so much Gillian, for such wonderful surroundings, inside and outside. The barn is just great, comfortable, cosy and spacious. We loved waking up in the morning and being able to open the door to sunshine and stunning countryside."
  • "We have had a wonderful stay in this cosy barn, fascinated by the farm tour and enjoyed meeting all the animals (lovely eggs too). Many thanks for the warm welcome."
  • "Never been to this part of the country before, what a discovery! Fantastic countryside and sweeping hills. Gillian was a great host, showed us around the farm and spent some time imparting her knowledge and enthusiasm for local wildlife. Great to be here at lambing time. Cottage very comfortable and warm, snowdrops out all over the place."
