Road communications are good with the A458 linking to the A5 which runs north to Oswestry and Chester while the M54 from Telford links to the national motorway network.

Extending to approximately 3.36 acres, Kenley Barn is surrounded by beautiful naturalist grounds with formal gardens to the front and rear of the property, along with a number of seating areas for al fresco dining and entertaining.

A cut walkway around the meadowland interspersed with silver birch trees meanders down to a woodland walk along the brook and back up past a small orchard and raised vegetable beds.

An extensive gravelled driveway sweeps around the barn providing ample parking and there is a useful outbuilding for use as a gardeners’ WC and shed, along with a large store adjoining the main building.
