About Us
Sycamore Farm used to be a dairy farm, but is now a rewilding farm, with woodland, young trees, wildflowers and ponds creating an oasis for nature.
The Barns have been lovingly restored and furnished with comfort in mind. All our cottages are heated through underfloor heating from our beast of a wood boiler, using locally-sourced wood, to keep you snug and the water piping hot. And we have recently calculated that overall the farm is now carbon positive – we actually absorb more carbon from the atmosphere than we emit…
The three barns can be rented individually, or joined together; providing accommodation for groups of up to 4, 8, 12, 16 or 20. If you would like there are connecting doors between them all.
You’re welcome to wander anywhere around the farm, including the rewilding fields, woodlands, ancient orchard, natural ponds, picnic areas and organic vegetable and flower gardens.
Sycamore Farm Barns is in the centre of England and easily accessible from major motorways.
