Hop Kiln Cart Barn is an 18th-century former farm building and stables on the edge of the wider Brockhampton estate, renovated to create a two-storey cottage that’s full of character. The downstairs rooms feature the original stable partitions, feeding troughs, varied levels and cobbled stone floor. The bedrooms are upstairs.

Hop Kiln Cart Barn sits next to Hop Kiln Farmhouse (sleeps 10), Hop Kiln Mews (sleeps two) and Kiln Barn (sleeps two) in a cluster of farm buildings and hop kilns, with a distinctive conical roof. They share two gardens - these are the front lawn and the rear padock.

As well a moated manor house depicting life through the ages, Brockhampton has walking trails taking in sweeping views, old and new orchards, natural woodland and Grade II-listed parkland. It's a short car ride away and once there, there are miles of footpaths to explore.
