Having been lovingly converted, this barn has retained original beams, trusses and brick pillars mixing traditional with modern.

Outside, James's Parlour boasts a very large enclosed garden with a substantial patio area with furniture. With incredible views across the Shropshire countryside and a real suntrap in the Summer. Watch the sun go down over the fields whilst you enjoy an alfresco meal with something bubbly or a fun picnic with the children!
