The barn is situated on the Essex, Suffolk and Cambridgeshire borders, placed within it's own private garden. This 2 bedroom spacious independent property, is equipped with a high chair and travel cot. Set in an area close to the Colne valley railway, several Essex wedding venues, historic Castle Hedingham, and the Colne valley vine yards. Being rural there are many footpaths for ramblers, but not far from the market towns of Sudbury and Halstead. We welcome couples and families alike.
