About this house rental
Welcome to your home in the East Midlands!
My air-conditioned, underfloor heated, spacious 2 bedroom loft, is a loving conversion of the standalone Victorian red-brick stable building at my family home, Rectory Farm, which is set in rolling countryside close to Market Harborough (1 hour by train to London).
It has literally just been converted for luxury modern living so everything is brand new and sparkling clean. It's filled with custom-made furniture, original art and fun gadgets.
The Loft is a large 135 sq metre / 1450 square foot space which welcomes friends and families or work colleagues travelling together. Ideal for those who want a relaxing and luxurious place to stay which is a world apart from the chain hotels and poor quality accommodation otherwise available.
If you are coming in a bigger group why not consider also booking my other 3 bedroom listing at the same location, The Barn - Its an amazing Indoor/Outdoor Living space with a 10 metre glass wall and its own garden that sleeps 8, or The Cottage, my romantic one bedroom that sleeps 4. Put together the three units offer sleep 18 adults and 4 infants and offer an amazing space for larger reunions and get togethers. Check my profile for more information.
• Amazing Base from which to explore - Rectory farm is conveniently located for Leicester, Market Harborough, Northampton, Rugby, Kettering and Corby.

We had a wonderful stay at the Rectory Farm for the Christmas Holidays. We stayed in the two bedroom loft which was perfect for our family. We saw some fantastic wildlife including a badger, ducks, birds and loved the rolling green English countryside.

A brilliantly executed conversion. I really don't know why I am encouraging other people to book up a place at which I would like to stay again.

Super modern yet comfy. Everything you need. Beautiful property. Just all-around impressive. We highly recommend.

The property is stunning! If you are looking for a retreat to the countryside, this is it. The Loft is beautifully appointed with gorgeous views, comfortable spaces and all the sweet touches that surprise you. A fresh loaf of locally baked bread, butter, milk and plenty of other treats to indulge in. Explore the farm with a pair of Hunter boots left for your use during your stay. We absolutely loved everything about The Loft, farm, host and comforts of the countryside retreat. Susan gave us many recommendations for pubs, parks, sites, etc. It really was a superb experience. We cannot wait to return.

From the moment we arrived at The Loft we knew we'd discovered a real hidden gem! The Loft; originally an old stable block has been lovingly renovated to such a high standard. The property is located approx. a kilometre off the quiet country road, and set within acres of rural farmland. Designed as an Eco house the interiors have been tastefully decorated in neutral tones with all the living accommodation located on the upper level - taking maximum advantage of the stunning views across uninterrupted countryside. The two bedroom loft has two modern and spacious en-suite bathrooms, both come with luxury Ritual toiletries. If media entertainment is your thing … .fear not music and games are also on tap, the attention to detail in this place is just superb! An open plan kitchen / diner / living space makes cooking a sociable affair and either dinning on the terrace or inside, the views across the open farm land all add to the tranquility of this special place. Walks around the grounds are to be encouraged various ponds host numerous wildlife, we got quite attached to the gaggle of geese frequenting the gardens and ponds they even had goslings during our stay! Communication with the hosts was always extremely prompt, always on hand should we need anything, offers of food shopping or amenities were endless and we even received a lovely bottle of wine for our wedding anniversary which we celebrated whilst we were there. Every effort was made to make our stay both memorable and truly magical! This really is such a special retreat and we can't wait to return! Thank you to Tom, Susan & Dom for all your care and attention it was very much appreciated!!

Absolutely amazing place, very advanced, has all modern amenities, very clean, everything worked as expected, the host was always contactable and replied very quickly. Lovely walks around the huge site. Parks were also not too far away. Child friendly. Would recommend to anyone. Thanks for a great stay.

Having previously stayed at The Barn which is truly amazing, my husband and I decided to try The Loft. Again another truly stunning property. From the moment we arrived we were made to feel so welcome. The added touches such as the fresh bread and jams were so welcoming and the wine went down a treat. Like all the other properties on the site, the Loft is “very smart” and has all the fancy gadgets that make them stand out. The heating, blinds and lights are all integrated and it even has couple of Alexas to make us feel at home. The beds and bathrooms are so luxurious, so much so that they would easily be deserving of 6 stars! Our host Susan has been great at the communication side of things. Nothing has been too much trouble. We have had a super time, and with such a stunning location and views to die for, we would highly recommend it so don’t hesitate to book such a fabulous place. You won’t be disappointed. We will definitely be back to try out one of the new properties once they are complete. Can’t wait! Thank you.

In an area hard to find accomodation the Loft was a real gem. We loved the quality of the amenities, and the modern design. We especially liked the study area as it allowed our student children to work in peace. The smart home setup (Amazon echo, smart lights, AC) is really neat. Looking forward to our next visit

I recently stayed at The Loft for one weekend - it was amazing! There is nothing I can fault about this accommodation. I loved it so much that I stayed at the owners second property on the farm (the cottage) one month later. Both properties are beautifully decorated with amazing interior, spacious and include a number of extras including an Amazon Echo, Popcorn maker, milk, bread, jam and cereals provided. The owner is very helpful, friendly and easily contactable via WhatsApp - there is also someone who greets you upon arrival, which is extremely helpful as they show you how to use all facilities and answer any questions you may have. I found that the owner was happy to answer all questions and tries her best to accommodate for additional requests (ie. late checkout). Wifi worked well, the tv is already logged into a Netflix account and the owner allows you to walk in her acres of land. I would highly recommend this property and the cottage. Lovely host and I will definitely be booking a third stay soon!!!!

My second stay at the loft, and again it delivered on all fronts. Everything has been considered here from the tranquil decor and use of light, to the modern conveniences and technology. Travelling a lot for work I have not found a better location for balancing a living space with the need to spend time working at the laptop. All of the amenities, fixtures and fittings are of a very high standard, and what really sets this location apart from others I have stayed at is the value Susan and her team put on service and support for your stay. I wont hesitate in booking again the next time I am headed that way.

Omg! This place is a must visit if you want a secluded, high tech but beautiful haven in the Northamptonshire countryside. It’s decorated to the highest spec, a bathroom for each bedroom, sociable-communal kitchen and living area and a balcony overlooking your own private pond. We packed everything we needed for our stay, and pretended we lived a rural life that consisted of eating, drinking and relaxing. We made it to a pub before we checked in and had a wonderful meal (I think it was The George if memory serves me correct). There’s a few lovely places close by, all a car ride, but still not far. The hosts are wonderful and have lots of info and recommendations. You’d be hard pushed to find something more swish than this in the county. Top marks from two very happy travellers.

This barn conversion truly is an amazing experience, overlooking beautiful fields and rolling hills. A top notch, luxury 2 bed property that is spacious and in a very quiet location at the end of a very long, winding lane ensuring that peace and quiet are guaranteed. The highlight is a balcony overlooking a pond, where you can sit and watch the world go by. A well stocked kitchen ensures you can stay home and cook food from the excellent local farm shop, or there are a couple of good pub/hotels serving food 5m down the road. Overall a truly top level accommodation; if you book you won't be disappointed.

We cannot recommend The Loft at Clipston more highly. The accommodation is impeccable with high quality design and technology. The views are stunning from the outdoor balcony. The host family gave a warm welcome. Thank you for everything. 5* indeed.

We loved our stay at The Loft for 2 nights - the actual accommodation is done up to such a high standard. We felt like it was home away from home. Susan has done up the property herself and the little touches she has made can really be noticed -eg. Alexa, Rituals products, Wellington boots I felt like the property has everything you could need during your stay and if there is something missing then Susan is on hand to sort straight away. The rural setting of where the property lies just made the whole stay and experience that little bit more special- getting away from the city. We would love to stay at The Loft or one of the other properties again in the future!

Went for a long weekend with the girls and it was absolutely perfect! Beds were comfy, well equipped with everything you needed and the place was absolutely immaculate. Thank you to Sue who was also amazing and very helpful.

We really enjoyed our stay at The Loft. The owners were very welcoming & informative. The property is in a beautiful setting & has all the modern conveniences that a family could want. We particularly appreciated the very comfortable beds, the ample workspace with fast WiFi, the smart TV & access time Amazon speakers, the x-box & easy control of the lighting & air conditioning on well placed wall panels. Eating out on the balcony on a sunny day is a real treat, looking out on the duck pond. We would be happy to stay at this property again & any other properties owned by the same owners as, by the pictures, they all look as though the quality of the surroundings are important & they pay attention to the details. I highly recommend The Loft as a place to stay if you are planning to explore the Midlands or even further away.

We stayed in the loft for a week and it was perfect. The house itself is beautiful, having being carefully designed to ensure maximum comfort and style. We loved the huge windows and views from which we watched hares, pheasants, ducks, geese and even the landing of a hot air balloon. The loft was very baby friendly for our 18 month old with a stair gate installed for us, cot, high chair and black out blinds. Other features we loved were the showers, beds, the collection of hunter wellies, fully stocked coffee machine, great travel books and laundry. We loved walking on the property and visiting nearby places such as Foxton Locks, Mini Meadows farm and Kelmarsh gardens. Some great farm shops nearby and we cooked lots - but there are also great pubs to eat at in nearby villages. All communication with Susan was super efficient. Can’t wait to return

Where to start! What a place. My self and my partner really enjoyed this magical loft. we set out for a place that were we could re charge bond and silence the noise city life brings and this environment did just that. the staff on arrival were so welcoming, the place was clean and warm with enough tech to give you all the connivence you need whilst simultaneously creating a homely mood. The grounds are beautiful to walk around and the shops aren’t that far away for your basic needs. We are planing on visiting again in the summer.

Booked the Loft to meet with friends, somewhere different from the usual hotel. Property was clean, excellent facilities, the quality of fixtures and fittings surprised us. Information provided and communication with the property manager was excellent. There are plenty of things to do nearby, or like us, you can relax with friends in relative luxury, would definitely visit again.

This trip was a short few days to catch up with friends and family and attend a wedding.
The property was our base to do so and was absolutely fantastic, I cant rate it highly enough. From booking through check in and our stay to check out everything was dealt with extremely professionally. Susan and the team looked after us superbly. It was spotless, very high spec and there was nothing we didn't have. Will definately be back as our new base when we are visiting the area.

Great property in the countryside for a family break with our 2 kids. Lots to do locally eg play farms and in Leicester (space museum and indoor climbing). Nice and quiet and very nicely decorated and equipped with all mod cons

The Loft was the ideal location for our festive family stay in England. From the Christmas tree to the popcorn machine, the carefully chosen furniture to Alexa on hand to play Christmas tunes, every little detail was perfectly thought out. Susan, our host, has created a truly special rural hideaway. We look forward to staying at The Loft again.

We stayed for two nights at The Loft. We were a group of friends catching up and the property was perfect. It’s been recently renovated to a very high standard with all mod cons. It’s in a lovely setting with great privacy which was great for us.There were some great finishing touches such as fresh bread on arrival. Anne who met us to check in was very helpful and the information provided by Susan before arriving was comprehensive.It was a short taxi ride into Market Harborough which had plenty of pubs and restaurants.Would definitely recommend for anyone wanting a luxurious base in the area!

We really enjoyed our stay at the house, everything was perfect! It's a freshly renovated loft and everything has been thought of to make our stay smooth and enjoyable! Fresh bread, jams, butter, milk, teas ready for us on arrival, a cot, bath and toys for the baby, everything in the house was spotless and stylish, we enjoyed playing monopoly, using the smart speaker to listen to music, the blackout blinds were great for napping with our little one, it was great to have lunch on the balcony overlooking our own little pond with cute waterhens chicks and rabbits to keep us company. The owners Susan and Dom were super friendly and accommodating and went above our expectations, and can give you all the information you need about the house and the area. The grounds were beautiful and we enjoyed walking around the main pond and enjoying the peace and quiet of the area. It's not too far a drive from Market Harborough to go grocery shopping, and it took us less than 2 hrs to get there from London. Would definitely stay again when we're in the area, and would recommend to anyone who wants a luxury stay in a very quiet location to get away from the busy city life.
