Granary at Oosland Barns - sleeps 4 guests in 2 bedrooms | Cottage in Alcester
2 Bedroom Cottage in Bidford-on-Avon, Alcester
The Granary is a red brick barn that has been converted into a cosy and comfortable, sleeps-four holiday let that sits alongside Owl's End, another Oosland Barns holiday let. The cottage is set in a gravel courtyard at the centre of a working arable farm, just half a mile from the River Avon and the pretty village of Bidford-on-Avon.
The barns and the fields around were purchased by the owner's family in the 1960s. In the 1980s the barns became grain stores, and the courtyard in front of the cottage was covered over with large steel bins for extra grain storage. In 2012, the grain barns were converted, and the grain store taken down, and the full conversion to Oosland Barns Holiday Lets was completed in 2015.
Inside, the cottage is decorated with a tasteful, country-cottage style and comfortably accommodates four guests, with a welcoming, fully equipped kitchen-dining area with tall French windows overlooking the garden and farmland beyond, and a separate living area with a log burner. Upstairs are two bright and spacious bedrooms (one double, one twin) and a family bathroom.
*Dogs: 2 well-behaved dogs are welcome at the cottage at an additional cost each. Please let us know if you will be bringing a dog and we will then revise your booking confirmation. The pet fee is NOT included in your booking fee. A request for an additional fee per pet will be sent to you after you have placed your booking. Your pet fee must be paid for before your arrival date.
