Hornbeam Grange is a small group of converted barns, set back from a no-through lane at the end of a tree-lined gravel drive and enveloped by open fields which provide an idyllic, peaceful, rural location on the outskirts of Cricklade.

The Parlour is a semi-detached barn conversion offering families a traditional 'cottagey' feel, with modern furnishings, creating an excellent fusion of old and new. Underfloor heating powered by a low-carbon heat-pump ensures a cosy and relaxing stay. Each of the units is self-contained and sleeps 4 people, there is no inter-connecting door allowing privacy when needed. The gardens with paved patios have beautiful views of the lake and the rural landscape of Wiltshire.

The surrounding countryside makes this an ideal location for walking, running or cycling. Both golf and horse riding are also available locally. The idyllic setting of Hornbeam Grange provides a haven for wildlife, local Roe Deer groups make frequent visits to the adjacent fields and Birds of Prey are regular visitors to the skies of the immediate area.
