Lovely property
Really nice living room kitchen and bedroom, the bathroom could probably do with some updating. The owners were extremely welcoming and Johnnie does absolutely fantastic sourdough which is such a lovely treat. There was also milk, (delicious) flapjacks, eggs from their chickens and some homemade jam! All of those things always make an extra special holiday. Their spaniel Sid was absolutely adorable as well. The garden was beautiful to walk in with a really fun addition of a swing. Would recommend to anyone who wanted to stay in the area

About the host

Hosted by Nicki Vizor

Host profile image
Married, and both my husband and I work from home. The Hen House is in the grounds of our property.
.
Having bought a house that needed modernising, and wanting to live on site, my husband was adament he could convert this former, uninspiring chicken shed into somewhere to live.

We loved living in the hen house and everyone was amazed at how light and spacious it was, so we decided to rent it out for others to enjoy.

We have enjoyed meeting people from all walks of life; artists, actors and musicians have all enjoyed the space, as well as walkers and those looking for a comfortable, peaceful retreat where they can lock the door and get away from it all.

What makes this property unique

Whether you are looking for a romantic bolt hole, somewhere quiet to work or study, or as a base for exploring the local area the Hen House offers spacious, light and airy contemporary accommodation in a peaceful, rural environment.
