<p>A self-contained silo conversion set within the grounds of Bonington Farm. Yes, you read that right, you actually stay<em> inside</em> the silo. I can remember my Mum telling me never to climb inside the silo but we&#8217;ve moved on since then and this unbelievably gorgeous boutique stay in the Leicestershire countryside is the perfect place to escape the noise and find a slower pace of life, with a king-size bed, floor-to-ceiling windows with countryside views, a log burner, rainfall shower, smart TV and underfloor heating. You can also book in to the neighbouring Filmhouse for a cosy and luxurious movie night.</p>
