This comfortable cottage is an 18th-century cart barn, with modern spaces tucked into the original stable partitions.
Hop Kiln Cart Barn is an 18th-century former farm building and stables on the Brockhampton estate, renovated to create a two-storey cottage that’s full of character. The downstairs rooms feature the original stable partitions, feeding troughs, varied levels and cobbled stone floor. The bedrooms are upstairs.
Hop Kiln Cart Barn sits next to Hop Kiln Farmhouse in a cluster of farm buildings and hop kilns, with a distinctive conical roof. Another two holiday cottages will open soon. The four cottages share two gardens - these are the front lawn and the rear padock. As well a moated manor house depicting life through the ages, Brockhampton has walking trails taking in sweeping views, old and new orchards, natural woodland and Grade II-listed parkland. There are miles of footpaths to explore.
