Set in the charming village of Burghclere, this welcoming retreat is well placed for couples, families and their faithful companions who love countryside adventures. Bursting with rustic character, discover exposed beams, homely touches, and a safely enclosed garden at this welcoming barn conversion.
Inside, the open-plan lounge/kitchen/diner is ideal for spending time together, whether you’re curling up on the sofa while Rover snoozes in front of the bioethanol fire or preparing hearty meals in the sleek, well-equipped kitchen. A large dining table seats six – just right for lazy breakfasts before the day’s exploring begins. There are three inviting bedrooms spread across two floors: a ground-floor double with an en-suite shower room, and upstairs, a cosy twin and another double, both tucked under the sloping eaves of the roof. A stylish family bathroom completes the interior layout. The enclosed garden is a real treat for both two- and four-legged guests. Enjoy your morning coffee while your canine companion sniffs around safely, then fire up the BBQ for an evening meal under the stars. There’s even a tennis court on-site (additional charge). With private parking for three cars, you can come and go with ease.
Stroll the surrounding footpaths for tail-wagging walkies, or for more of a challenge, grab the lead and set off on the Wayfarer’s Walk (8 miles), which climbs Beacon Hill for stunning views across the North Wessex Downs. Those craving a slower pace can wander through the nearby Cotswolds’ honey-hued villages, full of dog-friendly cafes, where time seems to have stood still for generations. When it comes time to refuel, you’ll find the local village pub less than a mile from your door, where four-pawed pals are welcome to join you.
