As the home farm for Stonefield Castle it was a working farm till 1965 when it fell into disrepair. In 1983 the present owners bought it and restored it to create holiday accommodation. It is a listed building featuring crow stepped gables and the sheltered courtyard is a great setting for a barbecue.
