Luxury holiday cottage on the Herefordshire border

The Great Barn standing central to the courtyard faces south, making the most of natural daylight and the timeless rural outlook. This luxurious holiday cottage provides an ideal place to relax and enjoy panoramic views of the rolling countryside.

The spacious entrance hall and living area are adjoined by two en suite bedrooms secretly lit by the original arrow slit windows. From the entrance hall ascend the stone spiral staircase leading to the dramatic split-level, open plan living areas and a third double bedroom with an en suite bathroom. Watch the clouds, stargaze through the clerestory glazed windows or chat whilst preparing the perfect meal in the well-equipped kitchen.

Complete with access to a heated indoor swimming pool, games room, and a pub within walking distance, this luxury holiday cottage is a real rural getaway.

Reviews for The Great Barn at Kempley Barns

Meet the owner

Bob or Petula Skerrett

Bob and Pet would be delighted to welcome you to Kempley Barns. We moved to the farm 20 years ago it was a mess of derelict farm buildings but with the help of our artisan builders we have lovingly restored the barns to offer our guests sophisticated country accommodation, fresh air and freedom. The farm is set in 50 acres of Perry pear orchards, landscaped gardens, wild flower meadows, with ponds and a babbling stream. The fire pit, barbecue and seating area is a great spot to while away an evening with friends. The heated indoor swimming pool is available for use by guests - we even give you some robes so you can sashay across in style!
