The Grounds
The barn is set in a glorious peaceful rural valley. There is ample parking in the gravelled driveway. There is a formal entrance through a pair of immense hardwood doors into the entrance hall, or an informal entrance through the garden gate into the secure, totally private, walled garden. This is particularly nice for families with young children as they can play safely in the garden and be watched from virtually every room in the house. There is a huge round garden table with 4 curved benches which seats 12 guests comfortably under the sunshade. There is also a Weber charcoal BBQ and a fire pit. In the corner you will find a fantastic 8 seater hot tub perfect for total relaxation.
