Braithwell · South Yorkshire
The Dairy
A converted brick barn on the edge of the village, with a private hot tub and a patio that looks straight out over the fields.
Make Yourself
at Home
The Dairy sits in Braithwell, a peaceful village in the South Yorkshire countryside: quiet lanes, big skies, and eight hundred years of history.
We live next door, in The Farmhouse and The Stable, so we're never far away if you need anything, and we'll happily point you towards the places we'd send our own friends to eat.
