Steeped in history, The Barton Estate is listed in the Domesday Book in 1086 and has hosted a variety of uses and ownership through the ages from an Augustinian Monastery to an annex to Osborne House for Queen Victoria! Privately owned now, the Estate includes private homes, holiday accommodation and a venue for weddings and other functions. Prospective tenants must be aware that the Estate is a working farm environment, along with the various other uses, and as such there is traffic and machinery in operation on a daily basis.

Recently completed, The Old Cow House was an original farm outbuilding sympathetically converted to create a comfortable and spacious single storey property with many original features retained.

Located in Whippingham, a short drive from East Cowes, the property is conveniently located for easy access (just a 5 minute drive) to a car ferry service to Southampton, and the Islands’ County town Newport.
