Owner info
Owned by the family-run farm on whose land it stands the barn featured in the 1993 biographical film ‘Shadowlands’. Shadowlands was converted to residential use in 2003, and later a popular holiday-let. In 2019 in alliance with Tunnel Beat the barn was re-fitted and orientated towards anglers, though many non-angling guests also appreciate the unique location.
