The Barn
The Barn was renovated in 1996 and was awarded a commendation by the Cornish Buildings Group the following year for its "sympathetic conversion".
On the ground floor, where cows, pigs and hens were housed, there are four double bedrooms and two bathrooms. Two of the bedrooms have double beds, one has twin beds and one has two sets of bunk beds, allowing a total of 10 to be accommodated (We can provide a z bed for an extra child, and there is a cot of course).
There are old slate floors and massive exposed beams. Each bedroom has a stable-door, opening out onto a south-facing stone terrace below which is a lawn bordered by a small stream and a pond, with a low stone wall separating this area from the farmyard.
Panaramic view of the inside of The Barn
Upstairs, in the old threshing barn, where hay and straw were also stored, the roof timbers have been left exposed and there is a lovely spacious living/ dining/kitchen area approximately 50 feet long. This has double doors at one end opening onto steps that lead down to a paved area for eating al-fresco and barbecuing, with a sheltered orchard just behind.
At the other end of the barn is a comfortable sitting-room with a large wood-burning stove and one wall entirely lined with books. Also at this level is a small extension housing a utility area and a third bathroom, which has a shower designed for the disabled. (A ramp leads up to the back door to facilitate wheelchair access.)
The Library
The Barn has full central heating, electric ceramic hob, combination microwave/oven/grill, oil-fired Nobel cooker (similar to an Aga), large fridge, dishwasher, washing machine, television, hi-fi unit and telephone. Bed-linen, is provided (inclusive with the rent), as are electricity, oil and logs. Baby-sitting can be arranged. Home-cooked meals can also be provided by prior arrangement.
