Details 

Stone Barn is a modern barn conversion, designed with self-catering holiday guests in mind. It has been totally transformed from a disused building into a luxury holiday get-away with all the comforts you should wish for! Quite a project - and an achievement - the owners of this Grade II listed barn, which was erected in 1879. 

The property comfortably sleeps six in three bedrooms. On the ground floor is one king-size bedroom with en-suite bathroom; one super-king bed (which can be set up as twin room on request) with en-suite shower room. The third bedroom is on the first floor is a double. There is a shower room off the hall on the first floor, making three bathrooms in total. 

The large open plan living area is upstairs, with a comfy corner sofa and custom-made entertainment centre with Wi-Fi, Sky, Netflix and a 55 inch UHD Smart TV. A large electric flame effect fire provides all the comfort and ambience of a real fire, without the soot! The kitchen features a large fridge freezer, induction NEFF hob and state-of-the-art extractor fan - straight from Sci-Fi. The kitchen table can be extended for special occasions.

There's a utility area under the stairs with washing machine, tumble drier, iron and high chair. A travel cot is available upon request. There are child gates at the top and bottom of the stairs.

Outside, cross the bridge into a garden with lawn, flower beds and a patio area, or turn left for a relaxing dip in the hot tub that seats up to six with a view of St Michael's church, best viewed with a (plastic) glass of fizz. Please bring your own towels for the hot tub. 

Well-behaved dogs are welcome (maximum of 2) for £30 supplement per dog.
