West Barn is a delightful, detached, stone long barn, set at the end of a rural no-through lane in the quiet hamlet of Lochvane which comprises only five other properties. Beautifully renovated, it retains its original charm with contemporary furnishings. The barn enjoys uninterrupted rural views across the large lawned garden and 1.5 acre paddock beyond, all of which is enclosed, so ideal for children and dogs. During the summer months, guests can enjoy some al fresco dining on the outdoor gas barbecue, recline on sun loungers and relax with a glass of wine on the outdoor patio furniture. An outdoor hot shower is located near the patio - ideal for rinsing wetsuits and muddy paws!
The well-equipped, rustic country kitchen with fabulous range cooker and farmhouse table is ideal for leisurely family meals. 1 step up is the sitting room with its captivating A - frame beamed ceiling and arresting natural stone inglenook fireplace which takes your breath away, where the log burner makes for cosy firelit evenings. French doors lead to the garden. The whole room transmits peace and tranquillity with only the soft background chatter of the many wild birds busily going about their duties. During the festive season, this room, decorated in full yuletide splendour, is iconic of the traditional Christmas card setting. Stairs lead up to a galleried bedroom and W/C nestling in the eaves.
Along the hallway from the sitting room, adorned with paintings by local artists, the master bedroom with en-suite shower room is tastefully furnished with a king size white wooden bed, dressed with crisp white linen. There is a further independent family sized bathroom with overhead shower, whilst an additional double bedroom and bunk room offer sanctuary for a good night's sleep.
A delightful cottage for friends and families to enjoy all year round.
