Stone barn with far-reaching North Pennines views
Stone barn with far-reaching North Pennines views
Description
A 19th-century stone barn, converted to a high standard on our small working farm in the North Pennines. Take in far-reaching valley views from your south-facing patio, warm up by the wood burner, and meet our Tamworth pigs and Belted Galloway cattle at feeding time. Allendale village, with its pubs, cafés and shops, is under a mile away, and the dark skies in the area are superb for stargazing. The space This traditional stone barn adjoins our house but has its own separate entrance, so you get plenty of privacy. Downstairs is an open-plan living and dining area with a fitted kitchen and top-quality Bosch appliances. Large bi-fold doors open onto a south-facing stone patio overlooking the North Pennines AONB. Underfloor heating runs throughout, and the wood burner comes with an initial supply of logs. For evenings in, there's a Smart TV with FreeSat (log in to your own Netflix, Prime, Disney+ and other accounts), a stereo with internet radio and Bluetooth connectivity, two sofas, and a shelf of books, games and DVDs. Upstairs, the main bedroom has a king-size bed and an en-suite shower room. The second bedroom has twin single beds, which we can link into a super-king on request. The family bathroom has a full-size bath and a separate shower. Guest access You have exclusive use of the converted barn, with completely separate access from our house. This is a smallholding, so expect livestock, fields and grass footpaths. Bring wellies in case of wet weather or muddy fields. We can provide a travel cot and stair gate. Please let us know in advance if you'll need them. Other things to note This is a working smallholding with a few free-ranging chickens, rare breed Tamworth pigs and a small herd of Belted Galloway cattle. We're happy to show you around, and the animals are always keen to meet visitors, especially at feeding time. We occasionally have our own eggs, beef, pork, sausages and bacon for sale. Parking is in a dedicated fenced area close to the barn, and covered storage for bikes is available if you ask. Sorry, we can't accept pets.
