The house
Formerly a stable this small Barn has been beautifully restored to a very high standard and retains original features, beams throughout and a bespoke staircase. It offers comfortable living accommodation for a couple and is tastefully decorated. It has a cosy living room with beams and a chimney with imitation wood-burner stove, original manger and racking, ideal for curling up on the leather sofa with a glass of wine. For chefs, we have fully fitted, well equipped oak kitchen with washing machine and dining area. Hand built stairs to mezzanine area with separate double bedroom with lovely beams and beamed shower room with wc and basin.

Situated on the edge of our small village along a quite country lane you can enjoy peace and quiet on the private terrace in front of the Barn. Visit the wide sandy beaches of the coast, the more adventurous can try sand-yachting or explore the lovely villages and towns along this unspoilt area of France and enjoy the traditional weekly markets or seasonal Sunday brocantes. Ideal for cycling or walking along the quiet country lanes or enjoy one of the many Rambling pathways in the area.. Visit St Omer with its lovely squares or play the challenging 18 hole golf course just 20 minutes away at Lumbres, one of the best in France. Not to be missed is the walled city of Montreuil sur Mer with its gastronomic restaurants and panoramic views from the ramparts or head for the sandy beaches on the Cote d’Opale. The Somme region is not far away and history lovers will enjoy Arras with its WW1 memories, cobbled squares and museums, visit Albert and Peronne with their superb museums. Chocolate lovers will be tempted by a visit to the Belgian city of Brugges with its canals and pretty shops, just over 90 minutes away by motorway. Whether you want sophisticated resorts like Le Touquet with designer shopping, restaurants, beaches and casino, or more unspoilt coastal treasures with sleepy seaside resorts, there is a beach to please everyone.

Marieke from Nederland,
We loved the cottage, it has everything you need, the gameroom is a nice bonus and the garden was great for our dog. The beach was amazing too. Sarah and David are so nice and they have good suggestions for walks etc.. Definetly recommand bell'aa!
John Gortemuller from Eindhoven,
Heel fijne week gehad in Rose Cottage. Alles wat je nodig hebt is er aanwezig. Mooie rustige omgeving tussen het boeren leven op het platteland. Voor brood en boodschappen moet je 6 km verder zijn. Jammer dat Sarah er niet was. We hebben het dus alleen met David moeten doen, wat absoluut geen straf was. Hij weet echt alles van de omgeving en vertelde vol enthousiasme over de geschiedenis van de boerderij en de 2 panden op het erf. Geweldig om hem te horen praten, maar neem er wel de tijd voor 😉.
Beslist de moeite waard om nog eens te bezoeken.
Groeten van John & Joke.Nanny Roelen from Geldermalsen,
Het was een heerlijke week in een superleuk huisje en een supermooie omgeving. En met superhosts, Sarah en David. Voor herhaling vatbaar!
Comment from Sarah Bing
It was a total pleasure to meet you both and so glad you enjoyed your holiday with us. We’d love to have you back in the future.
Restaurants, food & wine
We live onsite so can advise on our favourite restaurants to visit and can make reservations for you. Closest restaurant is 7km away, or travel further afield to Montreuil sur Mer for gourmet dining, or visit our favourite seafood restaurant at Boulogne sur Mer.
Guests can also use our unique BBQ hut during their stay.
Activities
During your stay, if you wish, we invite you to join us in our fabulous BBQ hut in our garden, bring something to cook and enjoy our hospitality.
I am a qualified masseuse and can offer our female guests a relaxing full body massage to destress. Treatments include a destressing/relaxing massage or maybe try a unique Tibetan massage with the wonderful tones of the traditional Tibetan Singing Bowls or even a Japanese Kobido massage (Japanese Facial Massage). For men, I can offer relaxing Head, Neck, Shoulder and Back massage to relax those muscles
As a keen knitter I can teach you the basics of knitting, we can do a workshop together and you can come away with a little souvenir

Further remarks
The Barn is in the courtyard of our old farmhouse and you have a private parking space. There is one other small holiday cottage on site and together you share the small splash pool..
Please note that for 2023 due to ongoing Covid we are leaving a longer gap between bookings giving us ample time to fully prepare the cottage for your arrival. This includes deep cleaning the property, changing all the bedding (mattress protectors and duvets) on all beds. Please note that arrival time is after 6.30pm and departing before 9am on departure day so we can implement these procedures, unless otherwise arranged with us. We hope that you understand our commitment to providing you with a completely sanitised property.
