Overview
Property code: 62150

Take time out to relax in this converted former barn, combining character with contemporary style. Unwind with a dip in the hot tub, light the BBQ or spend the day exploring the historic city of Bath.

Surrounded by picturesque countryside in the heart of Wiltshire, this unique barn conversion is perfectly placed for a rural getaway that the whole family will enjoy -- four-legged members included. Accessed via a long driveway which boasts far-reaching country views, the property sits alongside the owners’ beautiful characterful farmhouse. It sleeps four across two cosy bedrooms, which includes an enticing mezzanine king-size bedroom with en-suite shower room above the open-plan living space. After a day of adventure, enjoy a relaxing soak in the hot tub beneath the stars.

Unwind under the vaulted ceiling in the lounge/kitchen/diner, which has been furnished with care to ensure all your comforts are considered. It cleverly combines contemporary style with original features, resulting in a refined yet homely aesthetic. Cook a family feast in the stylish kitchen area and eat together in the adjacent dining space, perfect for cosy meals for four. Put your feet up in the lounge area, where plush sofas make it an inviting space to curl up and watch a film. Fido is sure to love the underfloor heating, which will keep them toasty wherever they snooze. Also on the ground floor, you’ll find a beautiful four-poster bedroom with en-suite shower room, while a floating staircase from the lounge leads to the mezzanine bedroom set into the eaves. The pretty terrace makes the perfect spot for an al fresco breakfast; why not use fresh eggs from the resident hens?

Nice barn but so cold. The underfloor heating in the living room doesnt work properly. Got accused of leaving the hot tub lid open (storm Barra) happened while we were there. Unfriendly and accusing, wont be back.

The Cutteridge barn we stayed at was lovely and very accommodating. Almost everything was supplied and even things you didn't know you wanted or needed. The owners have thought in great detail what lodgers may need during their stay. The barn is modernised but somehow still holds its rustic old feel to it. The hot tub was nice and relaxing. It toppRead moreed off an already incredible stay. I highly recommend. Thanks. Hide

Lovely converted barn in a rural peaceful setting. Location was central to a lot of areas we wanted to visit. As well as the welcome milk, eggs, tea and coffee which was a lovely surprise, the barn was well equipped with everything we needed for a lovely relaxing stay.

Beautiful barn in the countryside. Property was well equipped and had everything we needed. Hosts were friendly and helpful too. Good location for driving to Bath, Bradford On Avon, Longleat etc. This wasnt an issue for us, but WiFi is not the quickest / strongest so dont expect to be able to work or stream anything online.

Gorgeous, well equipped house in a great location. Lovely walks from the doorstep. The house is on the owners property but theyve done everything to give you privacy and are friendly but unobtrusive. Lovely outdoor space and the hot tub is a real treat after a days walking. Some reviews have mentioned there was no charcoal bbq but there was for ourRead more stay. Hide

The property is fantastic in a lovely rural setting with the added bonus of a hot-tub. It is very well presented with everything you may need, including lovely fresh eggs from the owner's hens and milk, on arrival. The owners were very helpful with suggestions for local attractions and villages to visit. Would definitely stay again.

We really were in our own little, private bubble. So peaceful & secluded. Every little touch was thought of, over and above our expectations. From fresh milk & eggs in the fridge, to fluffy bath robes and towels for the hot tub. We will definitely be returning to this beautiful little barn.
