& More at the Red Barn

Whether staying for a family wedding or  wanting to spend quality time with nearest and dearest we are always happy to chat through recommendations.

There is a fantastic choice of local produce to  enjoy at TRB!  We love the farm shops; March House and Gates Farm Shops are fabulous, there is the Engine Yard, Melton Mowbray Farmers Market (Tuesday and Friday), and you can get fresh fish delivered to the door on a Thursday evening ready to barbecue.  Would also recommend Grasmere (best sausages!) and Rob Bowring at the Farmer's Market.  Chez Sebastien deliver artisan pizzas on a Friday and Saturday.
