Your Accommodation

The accommodation has been designed with visitor comfort and convenience in mind. Whilst an ancient building, all modern comforts are provided and the barn is furnished in a modern contemporary style. Outside, The Milking Parlour at Hole has its own private paved patio with picnic table, bench, sun-chairs and a barbeque.

Steps lead up to the entrance/dining conservatory, which is a lovely bright daylit room, popular with those just wishing to relax or simply read a good book.  The conservatory leads into the open plan fully-fitted kitchen, which also has lots of space for storing your holiday paraphernalia.  The kitchen includes a large range of storage units, which are made from English Oak, with granite worktops, a butlers sink, an Electrolux double oven with ceramic hob, and a Bosch dishwasher and fridge.The farm's laundry room/boot room is housed in one of our ancient cruck-framed cartsheds just a short distance away, and there you will find your own washer/drier and also large freezer and space for muddy boots, wet jackets etc.    

Also on the ground floor are the 2 bedrooms: – one has been furnished with a 5 ft king size bed and the other with twin beds as you can see in the picture, and lastly there is a luxurious shower/wet room with mozaic tiled floor and his and her limestone basins, wc, and shower.

A hand-made solid oak staircase leads upstairs to the galleried sitting room, which has a vaulted ceiling with old, exposed timbers.  The central point of the room is a wood burning stove with fully openable doors to become an open fire, alongside a TV with digital freeview box and dvd player (and a large selection of dvds ). This room is large enough to sleep an extra person if required (via a double airbed which can be provided).

Both upstairs and downstairs are heated by underfloor heating with individual digital room controls, and the whole building has a structured cabling system providing voice and data with wireless internet access.

All linen and towels are provided, as is an iron and ironing board, hair dryer and unlimited logs for the fire. 

All heating and electricity is included in the price.

Visitors are please requested not to smoke in The Milking Parlour at Hole, and pets are unfortunately not allowed.  Sorry, no fireworks due to thatched buildings and livestock.

The accommodation is probably not ideally suited to very young children (under 5's) if left unsupervised, as the solid oak staircase has open treads(with no stair/baby gate), hard slate flagstone floors and fittings with square corners etc.
