About this house rental

Penny Lane Retreat at the Baba Looey Barn is located only 15 minutes from downtown Athens. The barn is located down a 1/2 mile driveway that provides you with peace and tranquility; the only sounds you will hear is that of nature! This is a working barn so every day the property owner is at the barn feeding and watering the horses.

Maximum number of guests is 2- please No exceptions.
Adults only- our minimum age is 25yr- children are not allowed- No exceptions.
We do not allow pets- No exceptions
We do not allow events or gatherings.
We strictly enforce these rules and will ask our guest to vacate the property if these rules are violated. There will be no refund of your rental costs.

This is a 700 square foot space (350 sq ft downstairs and 350 sq ft upstairs) with the bedroom upstairs and full kitchen, bathroom and living area downstairs. This barn is located in the middle of 35 acres that includes pastures, wooded areas and a 1 acre pond with a pavilion.

We have one pony (Tinker) and the famous rescue donkey (Baba Looey) that live in harmony with our two outdoor barn cats, Faye Lou and Lula Belle.

Our wish for you is to recharge both body and soul.

This space is perfect to remind you to slow down and enjoy the simple pleasures that give life meaning...

~coffee or tea as you enjoy watching the sunrise
~a walk in the woods
~reading a book by the pond
~journaling about your dreams in the hammock
~feeding Baba Looey an oatmeal cookie
~a glass of wine at sunset talking with a friend
-star gazing at night

Our prayer for you when you leave is that you more deeply realize how loved you are and that your life has meaning.

We absolutely loved our stay at Penny Lane. The hosts were very accommodating and we loved all the animals. It is very peaceful and relaxing. We hope to stay here again in the future. Please give Faye Lou some scritches for me when you are there!

We had a great stay! We arrived later than expected, but Leslie was there with the lights on for us, which was such a thoughtful touch. The property is wonderful, with beautiful views, and we really enjoyed spending time with the miniature horse, the donkey, and the two friendly cats roaming around.The location is perfect—only about 7 miles from Sanford Stadium. We’ll definitely be back next year for another game, and we wouldn’t choose to stay anywhere else.Thank you, Leslie! We truly appreciated your warm hospitality.

Beautiful setting, peaceful, quaint farm/barn lodging that was very well appointed. There was a lot of thinking into the small details that made the stay even better. No hassle check in or out and communication was great! The animals were adorable and friendly. A short drive to Athens. We will be back next year.
