The Ancient Barn
 |
This medieval barn was probably built in
the 1300s. It had fallen derelict and was then converted in 1995 to provide a very comfortable, unusual
and very special holiday home. It has a VisitBritain four
star
rating.
|
 |
Every care has been taken to preserve
its original features. There is a lofty living/dining/kitchen area with
a wealth of old beams, a flagstone floor (with under floor heating) and
double doors leading to a small paved patio.
|
|
Upstairs there is a heavily beamed
bedroom with two single beds + folding guest bed. Downstairs there is a double bedroom
with a magnificent king-sized antique brass bed, and the bathroom (with
over-bath shower) is next door. |
