Inside the barn conversion, the open plan layout means parents can keep an eye on younger ones easily.

Groups Will Love...

The exposed timber beams running across the ceilings are the standout feature of this barn conversion. These original structural elements showcase the building's agricultural past and create an authentic atmosphere throughout. Combined with the traditional stone walls, the beams give Lillieput Lodge genuine barn character that modern builds simply cannot replicate. The beams are particularly impressive in the open plan living area where they span the full width.

Pet Friendly

Lillieput Lodge does not accept pets, so you'll need to arrange care for your dog elsewhere during your stay. This policy ensures the barn remains suitable for all guests, including those with pet allergies. Whilst the countryside setting and farmland views would be perfect for dog walking, the working farm environment means animals cannot be accommodated. Consider this carefully when booking if you usually travel with your pet.
