The Old Barn @ Embrace Holistic Centre
This unique first floor accommodation, built in 1868, still has its original wooden beams and staircase and was converted in 1985 into living space for the current owners. Set in 95 acres of farm and woodland, with designated short walks for our guests only. Massage, Physiotherapy and Holistic Treatments are available in the on-site clinic; prices on request.
The barn sleeps max. 5 people, but the downstairs twin bedroom is for adults and older children only, as it has a separate entrance.
