Walkers' and cyclists' accommodation on the North Downs
Puttenham Barn Bunkhouse offers simple overnight accommodation and a warm welcome for walkers and cyclists - individuals, families or groups - in the Surrey Hills Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty (now also known as National Landscapes).
Located on the North Downs Way and Sustrans NCN22 cycle route, the Barn has a fully equipped self-catering kitchen, a shower, toilets and a garden with picnic benches.
The sleeping space is partitioned into two areas, both accommodating 4 people in bunk beds, plus a sleeping platform for 3 (or 4 small people) on a foam mattress.
Electricity and hot water included. Small shop on site. Evening meals are available in the village.
The Barn has many sustainable features including solar panels and rainwater collection for flushing toilets. No cars are allowed on site but there is limited street parking near to the premises. Excellent cycle shed.
Young people under 18 are welcome but must be accompanied by a responsible adult. Lights out 11.30 pm.
The Barn website gives suggested walking routes: One from Godalming station to the Barn, the other from the Barn to Farncombe station (both stations being on the main London-Guildford-Portsmouth railway).
The barn is also on the Pilgrim's Way at Guildford and welcomes all pilgrims.
A warden is always present and will share use of the kitchen. Sorry, no stag or hen parties

Celebrate 20 years of Puttenham Barn
April 17th 2025

Feel like a Pilgrim this Easter!
April 16th 2025
Spaces still available at Puttenham Barn Bunkhouse, which is on both the Pilgrim’s Way and the North Downs Way. This historic barn was converted 20 years ago into a cosy bunkhouse, and all are welcome to make use of our fully-equipped kitchen, bathroom, and garden. Wake up to the sound of church bells in the morning.
As a historic barn situated on these beautiful routes, it is likely many weary travellers have overnighted amongst the animals of the barn since it was first built 250 years ago, with its proximity to the quaint church in Puttenham.
Guests these days don’t have to contend with animals anymore, since it was converted 20 years ago into a cosy bunkhouse, and all are welcome to make use of our fully-equipped kitchen, bathroom, and garden when staying at the barn.
Being on the Pilgrim’s Way, we are proud to offer a stamp to anyone with a Pilgrim passport and friendly guidance on how to continue with their journey if needed.
We have a few bunks still available over the Easter weekend – come rest in our little oasis of calm!
