This award-winning, Grade II listed, 17th-century threshing barn conversion is located in the heart of Doddington’s conservation area. Adjacent to the 12th-century church, Shire Barn is steeped in history, yet combines state-of-the-art entertainment facilities within the original fabric of the house. The holiday accommodation is for up to ten guests with five first floor bedrooms; four double and one twin. The open plan downstairs is perfect for medium to large gatherings, featuring a spacious living area, large double storey glazed windows, 8ft screen home cinema system, large, fully-equipped kitchen as well as a fully equipped office with broadband. Travertine stone flooring on the ground level with under-floor heating, controllable zone lighting and a split level snug area are just some of the unique design elements.
The barn provides a great base of high standard accommodation to explore this area of Cambridgeshire which is also close to the Norfolk border and its coastline. Sandringham and Kings Lynn are also within comfortable driving distance. London is within a 50-minute train journey from nearby Huntingdon or Peterborough train stations. The village of Doddington has a range of shops and two pubs, both serving food, within ¼ of a mile. March is just 5 miles, Ely, 17 miles and Cambridge 29 miles. Shop and pub ¼ mile.
