Deer, hawks, songbirds, and crickets will keep you company.brbrBairnwick Too is named after my grandparents’ house, which is now the Bairnwick Women's Center at Sewanee. Bairnwick is Gaelic and means 'House of Children.' We seek to retain this spirit and Bairnwick Too is a wonderful place for families to gather. The house is located in Deep Woods, which is behind St. Andrews-Sewanee School and overlooks the same valley as seen from Green's View. The surrounding woods are fun to explore and there are plenty of trees to climb. brbrPlease note that you must be over 25 years old to rent and you must be in attendance. Due to the bluff and 70-foot drop-off, parents will need to provide appropriate supervision of children at all times and the house may not be appropriate for families with small children. There is not a fence and everybody will need to exercise caution around the edge of the bluff. We have one security camera outside the house covering the driveway.brbr--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------brWhat people are saying about Bairnwick Too:brbr'Thank you for sharing such a beautiful place; actually spectacular and peaceful.'
