Bedroom 2 offers a more contemporary style with a beautiful nickel king sized bed, backed with a panelled wall and warm low level lighting.

Situated in the old Piggery, it has a country boho vibe with its quirky lighting and antique furniture. This traditional charm flows into the bathroom with its roll top bath, decked in railway sleepers, and antique copper wash basin. Whilst one of the smaller bedrooms, it has the advantage of views rolling over the orchard and pony paddocks beyond. Bedroom 5 is in The Cottage. It is an elegant first floor room with a large king-sized bed. It has a warm rustic feel with beams floating through the eaves, sumptuous fabrics and quirky soft furnishings.

The sitting room has high beamy ceilings and a glass frontage allowing the sun to stream through, whilst adorned with low level lighting to ensure a more subtle vibe in the evenings. It is furnished with a substantial L-shaped sofa and a smaller 3-seater sofa (with optional double sofa bed), both dressed with Fermoie linen scatter cushions. In addition, there is a coffee table, a large smart television, a bluetooth speaker and a dresser complete with board games, magazines and books at your disposal. There is bar next to the sitting room furnished with an under-counter wine fridge and an additional fridge for mixers. It has a good supply of champagne glasses, wine glasses, pint glasses and tumblers, along with a couple of champagne buckets. In the event that the sitting room is used as a bedroom, thick linen curtains can be drawn across the windows and bar area for privacy and to ensure a restful night’s sleep. There is also an additional bath/ shower room available off the kitchen / dining room (not far from the sitting room) for guests to use. This is entered by ducking under the beam and through the original sliding door, opening up to an indulgent cast iron roll top bath with telephone taps and a monsoon shower. External Areas - There is a small grassed area at the front and rear of the property. At the front is a large courtyard lined with ornamental pear trees, and a traditional stone wall. There is a lawn in front of the sitting room and a parking area for up to 10 cars. At the rear of the property, and accessible from the sitting room, is a small garden and patio overlooking the orchard and pony paddocks beyond. This is fully equipped with a large gas barbecue (gas provided), a table and plenty of chairs for all guests. We encourage guests to use this more private area instead of the front garden, so as to reduce the disturbance to our neighbours. Guest access Guest / Disabled access - Once inside the Cowsheds, it’s all on one level, except a step up into the bath / shower room by the dining room and a small step up up into the sitting room from the kitchen / dining room. There is a small step up into each bedroom from outside with large double doors into all bedrooms except Bedroom 4. The en-suite bath / shower room to Bedroom 2 also has several grab rails so is possibly best suited to any elderly or disabled members of the group. The Cottage bedroom is up a flight of stairs on the first floor, although there is also a double sofa bed in the sitting room on the ground floor. All of the bedrooms and communal rooms have outdoor access, with Bedroom 4 and The Cottage having their own gravelled seating areas. Please note that, Bedroom 4 and The Cottage are rather more self-contained and not linked to the main barn conversion (albeit just a few paces away from the communal areas), so are perhaps not so well suited to young children if the parents are in Bedrooms 1 to 3. Do have a look at the floor plans and this should clarify the above. The Cowsheds has its own separate courtyard and 10+ car parking area, as well as a private entrance from the road. The Weekender is on 2 levels, with the bedroom upstairs and a small step into the property. Other things to note Children's facilities: 2 travel cots, 2 highchairs, potty, nappy changer mat, plastic crockery and cutlery. Please request cots in advance of your stay! VAT registered - please let me know if you would like a receipt for your stay.
