Tiebridge Farm: A Blend of Heritage, Community, and Rural Innovation

James resides at Tiebridge Farm near Stockbridge with his children, a dog, and two pigs. The farmhouse is situated just a few yards from the Barn Store building, and James is readily available to assist with inquiries and provide tours.

The Stockbridge Barn Store, once a large cow shed, was part of a much larger farm. It has been recently renovated and now serves as a storage facility. Located 1.5 miles from the A30 running through Stockbridge, in North Houghton village, we are conveniently 11 miles from Winchester, 10 miles from both Salisbury and Andover, and 6 miles from Romsey.

The farm is near the famous River Test, internationally renowned for its exceptional trout fly fishing. The Houghton Club, founded in 1882 and the oldest fishing club in England, is based nearby. Tiebridge Farm offers views over tranquil water meadows.

Stockbridge features a variety of independent specialist shops, including tea rooms, pubs, restaurants, art galleries, craft and gift shops, clothing boutiques, a delicatessen, and a traditional butcher.

Nearby attractions include Danebury Hill Fort, Houghton Lodge Gardens, Mottisfont House, and the Museum of Army Flying at Middle Wallop.
