A delightful, quirky home designed by Ernest Gimson and built for a family who loved Arts and Crafts filled with original family furniture. IMPORTANT Entrance to Stoneywell must be booked in advance.

It’s only worth Instagramming if it’s unique and something that’s going to grab your attention, and that’s certainly the case at Stoneywell Cottage. This magical cottage, one of the best examples from the Arts and Crafts movement, was designed by influential British designer and architect Ernest Gimson and was Leicestershire’s first National Trust house. This building is Leicestershire through and through, since Ernest believed in using only local materials in its construction. Located in Ulverscroft, and only accessible by foot, it lies in the centre of the Charnwood Forest, nestled into the landscape and surrounded by magnificent trees, nature and wildlife. Imagine what a breath-taking Instagram picture that could be!
