The Granary
Bed and Breakfast

The Granary is the modernised wing of the farmhouse on a family Dairy Farm founded in 1836. The Granary offers Bed and Breakfast at a high standard and is included in the Which 'Good Bed and Breakfast Guide'.

We have four rooms to offer - one double en suite, two twin ensuite and one family. The Granery is tastefully furnished, has a large garden, ample parking and a play area in the orchard which can be seen from the lounge/diner.

The farmhouse stands in 10 acres on one side of a country lane, with the farm on the other side, so it is very safe for children and dogs to roam freely.

The Granary is situated in unique countryside in the Heart of England, and the farm is bordered by 1300 acres of ambient woodland, in which the Forestry Commission have routed walks, together with a large lake for coarse fishing.

The Daffodil Way is a 10 mile walk and crosses the farm on it's way to Dymock, which has two more routed walks named The Poet's Walks, named after the Great War Poets, Frost, Abercrombie and Thomas who lived in the village for a time.

The village of Kempley is World famous for its Churches, one Norman with historic mural frescoes, the other an early 20th century Church, built entirely by local craftsmen in the style of William Morris at the height of the Arts & Crafts Movement. We have "Art Imagination", a studio running air brushing courses

Within a 5 mile radius there are three 18 hole Golf Courses, one including a driving range and a 9 hole par 3 course, a farm producing Gloucester Cheese, 2 Cider Factories, a Glass making Factory, a Victorian Street Museum, The National Birds of Prey Centre where they breed and fly the rare species and 2 vineyards.

Situated only two and half miles from junction 3 of the M50, there are many places to visit; Eastnor and Goodrich Castles; Gloucester and Hereford Cathedrals and Tewkesbury Abbey; the Cider Museum in Hereford; the Historic Docks and The Beatrice Potter Museum in Gloucester; the Market Towns of Ledbury, Ross-on-Wye and Newent central to the Cotswolds; Wye Valley; Forest of Dean; Malvern Hills and Wales.

The Granary has much to offer the holiday maker who appreciates natural beauty. 

The area can also boast some excellent eating houses from simple country pubs to sophisticated restaurants. All diets can be catered for and our Big Breakfasts, as featured in "Which Good B&B Guide", are not to be missed. Evening meal not available
