Believed to be built in 1650’s and used as a grain store, cattle shed and milking shed, The Skilling has been part of the Newman Farm since the 1880’s and more recently used as a cattle shed until it was lovingly renovated by Mark and Nicola Newman in 2010.

The Skilling sits in the farm yard looking out to our beautiful red brick stables, with large front patio and dining area for breakfasts in the morning sun and the rear of the property boasting beautiful sunsets in the west facing garden overlooking the village, field views and the Kennett and Avon Canal beyond.
