Nestled on a working farm in the quiet, rural village of Great Canfield, this zinc-roofed barn overlooks the fields of the Roding Valley. After a leisurely breakfast, head out and wander the footpaths on the farm venturing into the open countryside, or even wander the 0.5 miles to the nearby pub for lunch, or on to the local carriage driving centre for coffee and a quick bite at the cafe.

If you’ve been caught in the British rain on your walk, then shed your walking gear in the shared boot room to dry while you get cosy in front of the home’s wood-burning stove. Then, in the early evening, why not fire up the barbecue that can be found in the wildflower meadow here? Enjoy an alfresco picnic meal under the shade of an umbrella, as you gaze out at the beautiful flowers and the fields beyond.

This home is not only ideal for escaping to the countryside but its location means you can also easily venture as far as London and Cambridge, or explore rural East Anglia. What’s more, Great Dunmow, famous for the Flitch Trials, is the nearest town to this home – reachable in just three miles. Here, you will find butchers, a bakery, cafes, a wine shop, other independent shops, supermarkets, and even a weekly Tuesday market.
