This elegant converted barn perfectly combines the old and new with characterful original features and opulent contemporary additions.

The high standard of finish this converted barn offers is noticeable from the moment you step inside. Dine, unwind and play chef for the evening in the spacious open-plan lounge/kitchen/diner on the first floor.
