Built as the 'Sanctuary' around the 16th century, and later known as 'Court Baron', the present house was partly rebuilt in 1853, renamed 'Court Barn', and had its own chapel. It is a small, but delightful country house, set in five acres of park-like grounds with an aura of peace and quietude.

Today, Court Barn is refurbished with lovely antiques and William Morris prints and fabrics, whilst log fires, ornaments, pictures and flowers give the house a homely and informal atmosphere.
