The barn is on three levels; From the entrance hall there are two large ensuite bedrooms, along with a utility room and separate toilet. Going up half a flight of stairs takes you to the large living and socialising areas, off of which you will find an additional double bedroom. Travelling up the last half flight of stairs takes you to a further two large ensuite bedrooms.
The living areas comprise of a magnificent fully equipped kitchen with a vaulted ceiling and AGA; leading through to another large stunning living room and dining room providing a wonderful space for socialising, with a fireplace and woodburner and doors leading out to the enclosed garden.


To the front of the property there is a block paved area for five to six vehicles.

Stunning property
Outstanding stay at butterfly barn, couldn’t fault anything. The place was very clean and tidy on arrival, the check in process was easy and Stephanie is a lovely host. Nothing was too much for Stephanie, she was able to accommodate all our needs flawlessly, which made the stay that much better. The barn and surrounding area is gorgeous and is perfect for social events especially the open plan living space and kitchen area. Thank you
