WALLTOWN BYRE - Stylish, dog friendly barn conversion with hot tub sleeping 6

Offering a blissful escape in the very heart of Roman wall country, this is an absolute honeypot for culture vultures and active explorers.

With hot tub, separate entertainment barn and fabulous views - what’s not to love!
Dating right back to 1876, this fantastic property has been sensitively converted by the owners to respect the integrity of the original building, yet with a striking contemporary interior which shouts personality and fun.

Filled with the unusual and unique, the creative influence of the owner is evident in every room of this property with fantastic design features and interesting objects d’art. A beautiful wall-hung Kimono denoting ‘Love and Happiness’ exemplifies the essence of this holiday home – a brilliant celebration space for families and groups to take time-out and enjoy some together time.

The main living space including the kitchen and dining areas, is a generous nine by five metres space with an open plan layout which is flooded with light from the large floor to ceiling windows which frame the front aspect of the property. The stone arches from the original byre create a natural divide between the dining and the sitting room area, yet there’s an easy, relaxed flow to this space which means guests can easily chat, relax and entertain.

Bright colours and bold patterns are used to great effect here. A black velvet sofa with bright orange armchairs and pops of yellow piping is a delicious concoction of colour, along with a unique Bicha Bruizacan tapestry and rich kilim rug which add warmth and impact.

The all red scheme of the kitchen is bold and glamorous in equal measure with sleek, glossy cabinets and a bright red splashback creating a vibrant statement. The dining space enjoys the best views across the hillside and leads onto a patio with a hot tub when relaxation and bubbles sound like a good plan.

There is a separate wing with double height entertainment barn with dramatic mood lighting, original beams and characterful arrow-slit windows which create beautiful shafts of light across this space. If you add a huge cinema screen (allowing you to stream from iplayer, your Amazon, Netflix or YouTube accounts), along with a piano and ping-pong table, this wow-factor area is a perfect combination for a little competition, sing-song or some TV and popcorn time.

A hall from the main living room leads down a hallway to three en-suite bedrooms, each with bags of character and those picture perfect views.

Finally, a separate utility room leads into a ground floor wet room with plenty of storage for outdoor gear, wellies and walking boots.

For guests looking for something a little extra, property manager Lucy lives nearby and is an excellent chef who can provide a wide range of catering options for a very spoiling stay. Options include full service dinner, canapes, picnic lunches, pre-prepared dinners or even breakfast for that perfect start to the day.

Beautiful hideaway right near to Hadrian’s Wall
A fantastic and beautifully decorated barn located right by Hadrian’s Wall in wonderful Northumbria. Wonderful experience of sitting on a frosty night in a heated jacuzzi looking up at the Milky Way in the dark skies. Walking distance to Hadrian’s Wall and the Roman Army museum, there is certainly plenty of culture. The host Lucy was very welcoming and made the place very inviting plus she can offer to cook fantastic meals at extra cost. What with the most astonishing cinema room I’ve ever seen, it’s hard to fault this place. Definitely would love to return, and so would our dog, who lived his walks. A big hit all round!
