Description

The Old Dairy is a newly converted property located up the driveway of Queen Bower Farm, just on the left-hand side in the centre of the farmyard. Surrounded by barns, tractors, machinery, and stables, there is always plenty to see—whether it’s horses being led in and out, goats being fed, or simply enjoying the peaceful setting. Guests can also relax in private within the Old Dairy’s courtyard garden, enclosed by a 4ft wooden fence—perfect for sitting in the sun.

The Old Dairy offers studio-style living and consists of a spacious lounge/diner, a superking bedroom area, a shower room, and a compact kitchen.

You are surrounded by countryside walks on all sides, so you can step straight out of the door onto scenic tracks leading to Martins Wood at Newchurch, the nearby cycle path, or Queen Bower Woods just across the road. Local shops, including Morrisons, Lidl, and Aldi, are only a 5–10 minute drive away, and there are also three garden centres within a 10-minute drive.

The Old Dairy is ideal for couples seeking a countryside retreat, as well as for a mother-and-daughter getaway or two friends, as the superking bed can be arranged as twin beds if required. The property features a large shower, a compact but well-equipped kitchen with an oven, fridge, and ample cupboard space, and a comfortable lounge/dining area with doors opening onto the front courtyard garden. There is hard flooring throughout.

Well-behaved dogs are very welcome, making it a perfect choice for guests who wish to enjoy countryside walks with their four-legged companions.

If you would like to bring the wider family, there is also the option to book Queen Bower Lodge, which sleeps up to five guests. This allows you to enjoy time together while still having your own private space at The Old Dairy to unwind.

For those looking to fully relax, Yasmin, the owner, runs Seven Sisters Serenities from her log cabin therapy studio next door.

Parking is available right outside your gate.
