Explore the magnificent Cotswolds from this handsome Wiltshire barn conversion with two contented canines by your side. Six guests can also stay at this character-filled three-bedroom property, set within 16 acres of grounds. It is bordered by the River Avon, between Chippenham and Lacock. Take furry legs on long walks through your scenic surroundings, then return home to luxuriate in the elegance of the barn and play with your pals in its pretty gardens.
Wander into your exquisite barn, which is adjacent to the owner’s property but enjoys its privacy, to find splendid original features, including beautiful stonework and beams. Your open-plan lounge/kitchen/diner has a high vaulted ceiling and chic finish. Prepare meals for happy humans and hounds alike in here; use the washing machine to whiz through any damp doggy towels and spend time with your furry friends relaxing in front of the TV. Discover two of your bedrooms at ground-floor level, one with an en-suite wet room and the other with access to a Jack and Jill bathroom, with another door on to the hall. Follow the stairs up to the mezzanine level to your third bedroom. Keep Rex and Rover on their leads but feel free to enjoy all 16 acres of the grounds. Dine on the terrace on summer evenings with your cheerful chums close by.
Visit the National Trust’s Lacock Abbey, which dates back to the 13th century and is set within wooded grounds, approximately 4 miles away. Your pals can join you from November to March and at other times stretch their legs in a special dog walking area. Take your furry friends on a 2-mile walk through the medieval village itself and alongside the banks of the River Avon. Drive 7.5 miles to Castle Combe for a 3.5-mile circular walk through picturesque Cotswold scenery.
