Hanslope

Bullington End Farm seems to date back to Tudor times (thought to be built at some time between 1485-1603), the main cruck-frame thatched section of Grade ii-listed Bullington End Farm was originally a hall house, likely to have been the home of a farmer and livestock. The property was likely extended in the 18th or 19th century and a side sheep barn is thought to have been sympathetically converted into a lounge and dining room in the 1980s.

Hanslope and Castlethorpe villages are within 1 mile of the property, boasting pubs, village stores, a doctor’s surgery, primary schools and green spaces. Wolverton Rail Station is within 5 minutes driving distance.
