Barn Cottage is a very popular cottage due to the large downstairs living area, with separate kitchen, dining room and living room.

Decor: Barn Cottage has wood effect flooring downstairs and in the bathroom. It is decorated in attractive country style with cream walls. Pictures in all the rooms are original works and often for sale.

Living Room: The living room is dominated by the large arch-shaped window looking out on the garden and to the fields and woodland beyond.

With high beamed ceilings, exposed stonework and interesting wall niches, the room reflects the building’s original use as a barn.

The room, which is 3.5m x 4.5m, is lit by wall lighting and standard lamps. It contains a comfortable three piece suite, occasional tables and an Indian rug on the floor. An electric flame effect fire supplements the central heating.

An open stairway leads upstairs from the living room.
