Located in Shaftesbury, Wiltshire, this charming converted property is perfect for a relaxing getaway in the South of England. Set on a 50-acre sheep farm with horses to admire, the barn is adjacent to the owner's 17th-century farmhouse. Surrounded by the Cranborne Chase & West Wiltshire Downs Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty, there are plenty of walks, cycle routes, and flora and fauna to explore in the picturesque towns of Shaftesbury, Mere, Bruton, and Wincanton.
The former farm building features an open plan lounge/kitchen/diner with a pitched ceiling and feature beams. The well-equipped kitchen includes an electric oven and hob, fridge/freezer, and microwave, while the cosy lounge area offers a TV and DVD for relaxation. A double bedroom, a study/storage room, and a contemporary bathroom with a shower over bath and WC complete the interior.

Guests can enjoy walks through the owner's land, with beautiful views of open countryside, a lake, and bluebell woods in season.
