The Granary is a former grain store, converted in 1999 to a holiday cottage for up to 6 people.
A fully-fitted kitchen with a dining table for 6 or more. There is also a large lounge that is ideal for family get-togethers.
If you book two or more cottages then the Granary needs to be your first choice as the large living room is a great space to sit and get together.
This is the largest and most spacious of the cottages. The lounge leads on to the patio and barbecue area through large french windows.
Built on to the meal shed in the 18th century, it was used, as the name suggests, as a grain and feed store. The ground floor was used to house livestock.
Originally it contained cow stalls where the farm’s herd of milking cows would have been kept. When originally built farming was a lot less intensive and the herd would have consisted of only about ten cows. This small herd would have been hand milked twice a day. The milk would have been mainly used for butter and cheese making for the local market.
The use of the building changed for a while and it was used as a chicken house, housing about 100 laying hens. Milking continued but became slightly easier as the first processes of mechanisation appeared, a vacuum assisted milking machine - the same process is still used in today’s state of the art milking parlours.
This is how things stayed until the 1920s when a new milking parlour was built onto the granary. The granary became the calves’ pens, where newly-born calves would have been fed and reared. This continued up to the 1980s when modern, purpose-built agricultural buildings were erected - there simply wasn't enough space to get everything in!
