The Haybarn

Superb Barn Conversion

Originally a barn and corn store dating back to the 18th century, the Haybarn has been converted into superb holiday cottage accommodation. Constructed of local limestone, with gritstone dressing to doors and windows, the interior has beamed ceilings and a wealth of original features. All rooms have been carefully furnished and decorated to extremely high standards. A modern, deluxe kitchen with granite worktops has integrated appliances and a full range of cooking and dining ware. Look out of the French windows and marvel at the stunning views while enjoying the new, cosy, wood burning stove (Bio mass)!

From the kitchen a door leads to a separate lounge; a lovely, comfortable room which also has magnificent views and a newly installed wood burning stove, (Bio Mass).  There is a flight of open tread stairs from the kitchen to a landing which overlooks the courtyard. The landing provides access to a modern, deluxe bathroom with bath/over bath shower, WC and heated towel rail. Also off the landing is a spectacular king-size double bedroom with vaulted ceiling and exposed roof trusses.

A separate, second bedroom has twin beds (which can be made into a king-size double by arrangement). This cottage will easily accommodate two couples but the layout (second bedroom leading off the master bedroom) means that it’s particularly suitable for families, especially those with small children. The second bedroom contains a Z-bed for an extra person.
