Hey, Annie here! This is the final blog post on mine and Charlotte's visit of some of the quirkiest properties in the Midlands. For our third and final day, we visited Cruckbarn and Trunkquillity Treehouse

We left Coalport Station Holidays and headed to spend the afternoon at Cruckbarn, a renovated barn near in Herefordshire. As we approached the property, we drove through the picturesque and quaint town of Wigmore. When arriving at the property, we were met by the owner and we were immediately intrigued by the unique design elements, and you could feel the love that was put into the renovation. There were so many home from home comforts, yet still with such a luxurious feel. The property caters for families up to 5, couples or small groups of friends, in two bedrooms. 

THIS COMPETITION HAS NOW COME TO AN END. The competition winners will be selected at 10am on Thursday 30 August and notified by email. Please check your inbox and spam folders just in case. It is essential that you acknowledge your prize by Saturday 1 September by 5pm at the latest or we will select another winner. We will announce the lucky winners here!

We now have 4 lucky winners!

Hi all! Today we are going to showcases some of our favourite "follies". A folly is described in the dictionary as "an often extravagant picturesque building erected to suit a fanciful taste". Well, that also comes securely under the quirky umbrella!
The Temple, located in the Cotswolds, has a romantic, mysterious story behind it; Legend has it it was used as a secret hideaway by a married Reverend to meet his gypsy lover. It is now a beautifully renovated location, perfect for a romantic or a calm, family holiday.
