4 x one bedroom holiday cottages interconnecting balconies.
The Old Barns is a beautifully converted barn consisting of 4 x one bedroom self catering cottages interlinking via the balconies. Each cottage sleeps 2 adults (please enquire regarding children and dogs - additional charges apply).
This is the ideal getaway with fiends and family giving you all your own space and the opportunity to spend time together.
We are in the heart of the Test Valley giving access to miles of country walks and fantastic country pubs.
We are also dog friendly so your dog can come too (dogs are not to be left unattended and a small surcharge is payable).
The cottages are upside down - downstairs you will find a bedroom, period bathroom and an entrance hall.
Upstairs each cottage has a spacious open plan lounge/kitchen/diner with a fully equipped kitchen.
All the cottages have french doors from the upstairs leading out to the South Facing balcony where you all have tables and chairs to enjoy the alfresco dining. each balcony can link to the neighboring balcony via a gate.
Shared garden, parking area and driveway.
We are in a fantastic location in the countryside, but with the fantastic cities of Winchester and Salisbury less than 30 minutes away, The beautiful New Forest National Park between 15 and 30 minutes away and Stonehenge 40 minutes away.
There is so much to see and do in the area from stunning country walks, shopping, eating out, Bombay Sapphire Gin Tours and tasting, horse riding, fly fishing, clay shooting, stunning gardens to visit, National Trust properties, Beaulieu motor museum, pepper pig world, Steam trains and so much more.
Please note that from the beginning of 2018 until the end of March 2018 we are carrying out building works on our other barn and there maybe some noise and building materials. Please feel free to ask about the works to determine if you feel it will effect the enjoyment of your stay.

About Sarah
After many years living in Marlow bringing up a young family and my husband Rob commuting to London and abroad for business we decided it was time for a change. We fell in love with the area and these barns and bought them in November 2011. We live on site in an old calving shed that we converted and built in 2013 with our 2 teenage boys, our dog Indie and our growing number of chickens.
Sarah purchased this Barn in 2011
Why Sarah chose Kings Somborne
The Test Valley is an area of outstanding natural beauty. We are surrounded by stunning scenery and the River Test famous for its fly fishing and other country pursuits. We are extremely lucky to have fantastic high quality eateries and farm shops on our doorstep and fantastic independent shops in Stockbridge, Winchester and Salisbury. The whole area is surrounded by amazing things to see and do and only being a 10 minute drive into the New Forest or 30 minutes to the sea means that we can have the best of both worlds.
What makes this Barn unique
The Old Barns is a beautifully converted barn consisting of 4 one bedroom cottages. If you want to get together with some friends and family it is possible to rent all 4 cottages. We welcome well behaved dogs and it is possible to accommodate additional children in some of the cottages. The barn conversion has been carried out in a rustic style while keeping all the home comforts you would expect. The cottages are very generous for 2 people and as with many of our guests I am sure you will keep coming back. We have access onto the Test Way from the top of our driveway giving you access to miles of beautiful country walks or just a short drive away is the New Forest, the coast or the cities of Winchester or Salisbury. We are absolutely spoiled for choice with good places to eat all within 5 miles and there is a lovely local pub just 1 mile from the cottage. Mobile and wifi are available at the property, but due to our location we do not guarantee these and some mobile providers do not get good reception here.
