Granary Loft is a unique, oak-clad studio apartment on the first floor of a superb barn conversion amongst open countryside in Croxton Kerrial on the border of Leicestershire and Lincolnshire. With a traditional pantile roof, this Grade II listed apartment is the perfect, rural romantic retreat in the beautiful Vale of Belvoir, with plenty of walking opportunities and history to be found within easy reach. Tastefully renovated to a high standard, this apartment boasts panoramic views across the surrounding farmland, providing a peaceful and tranquil setting for a hideaway holiday. The spacious open-plan living area boasts a sumptuous super-king-size bed and a welcoming sitting area where you can unwind in front of the TV. Later, head into the fully-equipped kitchen to rustle up a romantic meal that you and your partner can enjoy around the intimate dining table. On sunny days head outside to dine alfresco on the garden furniture or fire up the barbecue before heading back inside to wash off the day’s adventures in the shower room. There are numerous walking and hiking routes from the doorstep and cyclists will be in their element thanks to undulating areas around Belvoir Castle and more level areas to the south down to Rutland Water; off-road mountain biking is also well catered for, as the property lies on the Viking Way. The nearby National Trust property of Belton House is well worth a visit, plus be sure to take a trip to the grand Belvoir Castle and its delightful gardens. Golf enthusiasts will appreciate the nearby golf courses where they can practise their swing and enjoy an afternoon of golf. Twelve miles away lies the historic, attractive town of Stamford with its golden sandstone buildings and the stately home of Burghley House. Those looking to experience the area’s wildlife can enjoy a trip to Rutland Water Nature Reserve for the chance to spot local birds, try your hand at fishing or bask in the serenity by boating on the lake. Make unforgettable memories at Granary Loft!
