The space

This beautifully renovated luxury conversion of a 200-year-old stone barn seamlessly blends classic charm with modern amenities, featuring exposed stonework and beams.

The open-plan kitchen, complete with an island, serves as an ideal entertaining space, featuring a dining area, and bifolding doors leading to your very own hot tub retreat! Whip up culinary masterpieces with not one but two ovens, microwave, a warming tray for those fancy dinners, a wine cooler to keep the bubbly chilled, and a full-size fridge and separate full-size freezer, plus a dishwasher and a Quooker tap for instant hot water magic! The large refectory style table with comfortable seating is the perfect place to sit and enjoy time with the family over a lovely meal, or playing the board games available.

If you fancy relaxing with a good book, snuggle up on the oversize armchair overlooking the patio and hot tub, or make holiday memories with photo opportunities with the cap and gown prop. This property is truly a very special place.

Feel cosy with underfloor heating flowing throughout the whole property. Movie night? We have this covered! Grab the popcorn and sink into the plush sofa in your cinema room while watching your favourites on the fabulous 83-inch Smart TV.

The ground floor also hosts a downstairs WC, a study space (in case a guest needs to work during your stay), and a super king bedroom, accompanied by a modern wet room, designed for enhanced accessibility, making it an ideal sanctuary for the family's older members.

The upper level comprises three additional bedrooms: two kings with beautiful en-suite shower rooms, and one twin. There is a beautifully designed bathroom including a freestanding bath for added luxury.

Outside, the property boasts a charming, large, wrap around, enclosed terrace with outdoor seating area, a small lawned area, with firepit and grill above. There is secure off-street parking for 3-4 vehicles, and an electric vehicle charger. This exceptional property also features a relaxing seating area and a hot tub that accommodates up to eight guests.

It is the perfect extended family escape, or group get together for eight adults (with space for a cot and an additional smaller guest on request).
