Chaplin House was built in 1797 as an alehouse and until 2003 was still called Chaplin Arms. It played an important part in the life of the village: in the past, the first floor at the front of the house was one large room in which parish meetings and other public gatherings were held. The building was last used as a public house in 1923. It then became the village post office and a shop until the early sixties when it gradually began to fall into disrepair. Since 1982 various owners have gradually rescued the building, and in the last two years we have converted the barn and some of the outbuildings for guests.

The lounge still retains the original cast iron range, made in Lincoln. Although it is no longer used for cooking, the fire in the range is lit on winter evenings and it is easy to imagine life as it was lived here until the middle of the last century.

The accommodation comprises 3 rooms, one double in the house and two in the new barn conversion: a twin bedded fully accessible room downstairs and a family room upstairs. All rooms are spacious and en suite, with power showers and heated towel rails. The twin bedded room has an en suite wet room and the family room has a bath with power shower. TV, DVD, clock radio and tea and coffee making facilities are available in each room.

There is a comfortable lounge area in the barn conversion available for guests' exclusive use, with access to a decked area overlooking the large rear garden. A cot and high chair are available if needed.
