The corridors and doors have been kept wider for wheelchair access, extra space in one of the bedrooms and grab rails in the wet room, which also has non-slip flooring. Retaining their own privacy, the barns are located on the site of the owner’s smallholding, which was the former site of the old Witton windmill, it is just the base of the mill that remains today. As well as lots of natural wildlife to observe, some of the farmyard animals including chickens, ducks, geese and donkeys do not always adhere to their boundaries, so may drop by during your stay to say hello!
