Many barn conversions across the British countryside tend to be relatively small and cosy affairs, but this example in rural Gloucestershire is a comparative colossus with a wealth of social space and amenities.

The design inside lies on the rustic side of things, with exposed stonework and wooden ceiling beams to be spotted alongside a wood-burning stove, a clawfoot bathtub and an ornate bed frame in the master bedroom. That being said, there's a contemporary sheen where it matters, especially in the pastel bedrooms, sleek bathrooms and the kitchen complete with an Aga.

So how would you fill your time at the address? Well, when the weather permits, you can make the most of the large garden with a lawn big enough for games and a patio area for alfresco feasts. There's even a hot tub ready and waiting for a relaxing spot to pass the golden hour. If, however, grey clouds make an appearance at any point, don't fret – there's a snooker table inside, as well as another games room in the external former stables, that should keep guests entertained for a while.

In the local area, the town of Lydney is only eight minutes' drive away when you need supplies, while both Newport and Gloucester lie about forty-five minutes away in the car. There's a wide choice of natural attractions to be discovered nearby as well, ranging from the Forest of Dean and Puzzlewood to Clearwell Caves.

Desk / Workplace

Tucked away, off a country road close to Ledbury, this charming little home comes as quite a surprise. With its rural surroundings and nearby grazing sheep, its bold industrial styling is a real statement, with deep hues on the walls and lots of reclaimed wood. Vaulted ceilings, exposed brickwork and wooden beams add plenty of character but it's touches like the vintage radiators, scaffold pole headboard in the bedroom and the exposed copper pipework in the bathroom that make this place really sing. 

Somewhat upside-down in its layout, the main living space is on the top floor, with direct access to the pretty garden – a private sanctuary. Lounge on the leather sofa, cook in the stylish kitchen area or eat at the table in front of the patio doors. For extra snugness, there's a second lounge on the lower floor, complete with an electric fire for cosy film nights. And while we love the bedroom here, with its sumptuous mattress and faux fur throws, it's the bathroom that stole our hearts – its copper bathtub is a real showstopper.

From here it's a just four-minute drive to the pretty town of Ledbury, and keen walkers will be in their element with the Malvern Hills, the Cotswolds, the Wye Valley and the Forest of Dean all within an hour's drive. If you're here during the autumn, you can ask for access to the neighbouring orchard, where you can help yourself to some seasonal fruit, and you can even treat yourself to a private yoga lesson – your host is an experienced instructor.

Hygge of Herefordshire

This large, detached Georgian home has a fantastic location in the picturesque village of Lydbrook on the banks of the River Wye in the Forest of Dean. There are plenty of walks and cycle routes from the doorstep or explore Monmouth or Ross-on-Wye nearby. There are wonderful views from this home’s upper floors and there are two cosy sitting rooms with wood-burning stoves. Outside the terraced garden offers more vistas and plenty of places to relax in the Gloucestershire sun and there’s a barbecue and pizza oven for alfresco dining.

Wye Valley Views

Searching for somewhere off the beaten track? It’s time to stop scrolling. Nestled in the Forest of Dean, this home has tranquillity at its core. Perfect for a family, four-legged friends included, the fully-fenced garden offers somewhere to sit back and listen to the sound of nature – just keep an eye on children and dogs, as although the trout pond is fenced with gated access, you can never be too safe. Exploring locally, you can take to the trails through the forest where if you’re lucky, you may even spot some wild boar and deer.

Welcome Hamper

Located on the edge of Wilton Village on the banks of the River Wye, this grand castle boasts expansive grounds with space for alfresco dining amongst the ancient buildings. The exposed brick and stone alongside vintage furniture and paintings highlight the home's original construction, but this dated interior won't be for everyone. The location is beautiful though, with the Wye Valley being an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty. You'll receive a hamper when you first arrive and pets are welcome, so we think it's a good spot for families and friend groups looking for a historic stay with lush surroundings.

Slap bang in the national reserve of Malvern Hills, this collection of barns is based in an official Area of Outstanding National Beauty, and the home itself isn't far off that description, too. With vast arched glass windows, cool and contemporary spaces filled with natural light, original wooden beams everywhere, and an indoor pool so luxurious it belongs in a Bond villain's home, you'll want to spend your whole trip at this retreat. The lounge has sweeping views for when you want to relax with a film between glances at the stars, and the dining space is the perfect place to serve an elegant dinner spread or a lazy round of coffees. Explore the national reserve and its diverse landscape on your doorstep, and take a hike to Midsummer Hill - a walk or quick drive away. Bathe in luxury in either the huge shower or the sleek bathtub - the best way to wake up on a getaway.

Nestled on a ridge in the glorious Herefordshire countryside, gazing out towards Ross on Wye and beyond, this beautiful cottage is the ultimate rural escape. With charm and elegance oozing from its walls, you can’t help but fall a little bit in love with this home from the moment you step foot inside.

Step to the patio doors, and you’re greeted with stunning countryside vistas as far as the eye can see. 

Not to be outdone, the outdoor space is perfect for warmer months – light the barbecue and settle down on the locally made pine table and benches (salvaged from the owner’s woodland) for an alfresco meal to remember. The peace and quiet in this location is something you’ll savour, with the delicate notes of birdsong providing the soundtrack to your stay. As daylight fades, soak up the sunset from either the courtyard terrace or orchard – if it starts to get a little chilly, the fire pit is ready and waiting to warm you up as you watch the sky dance through an array of colours. With comfort at its core and thoughtful touches throughout, this cottage will live long in your memory, even after you’ve returned home. 

Scenic Serenity

Make the most of the generously sized garden at this home in Highnam on the outskirts of Gloucester. Through the French doors from the outdoor space, you’ll find the well-equipped kitchen-diner – there’s plenty of room here for your group to cook and chat. If you simply must catch up on emails while away, there’s also a desk space in the living room. Or, have a stroll around the village and the Highnam Court estate. The city of Gloucester is 3 miles away and is known for its docks and 11th-century cathedral, while 10 miles away is the town of Cheltenham.

Gleaming Gem

Inside, there is a wood-burning stove in the living room and two of the bedrooms feature en-suite bathrooms – adding a wonderful sense of privacy. And when it comes to explorations further afield, follow hiking trails, visit local pubs or explore the nearby Wye Valley.

Light of the Forest

Free Parking

Rolling countryside as far as the eye can see and quaint villages tucked into the valleys of Monmouthshire on your doorstep – this converted stone barn is an idyllic getaway. It’s a six-minute drive to the centre of Raglan where you can explore castle ruins, pop in to one of the cosy pubs or stock up at the traditional butcher and the local village shop. Further afield you’ll find the charming market town of Monmouth a fifteen-minute drive away. The home is blissfully quiet, with nothing but the occasional bleat of sheep or whinny of a horse in the surrounding fields. Out here, away from it all, you can see the canopy of stars from the private garden. During the day, this spot is perfect for a family barbecue, with dining on the patio. Inside, it’s open-plan living made cosy with a wood-burning stove set in the old stone wall of the living room. Period features like the old timber frame and arrow-slit windows have been retained, showing off the age of the building. The Aga and Belfast sink in the kitchen keep that farmhouse feel, perfect when paired with farm-fresh produce from the hole-in-the-wall farm shop just down the road.

Outside, there’s a hot tub (available for an additional fee) and an enclosed garden – great for kids and dogs. And for adventures further afield, there are endless walking and cycle trails, plus it’s just a short drive to the nearest amenities in Lydney – 2 miles away.

An Emerald Escape

Black-Out Blinds

Inside, discover a cute contemporary farmhouse style, with beautiful natural stone flooring, a sleek kitchen and an inviting seating area placed within warming distance of the wood burner.

Step through to the bedroom, where you'll find a comfortable bed with a skylight above, perfect for stargazing, and an elegant freestanding bathtub for indulgent evening pampering sessions.

The star of the show has got to be the wood-fired hot tub, with views across to the Monnow Valley. Spend your days hiking through the hills with your dogs, before hosing them down at the outside tap and jumping into the warm water – we can't help but feel that the dog's getting the raw end of the deal here.

Speaking of walks, there are plenty of public footpaths that pass across the farm, with your hosts able to provide OS maps and walking books should you need them. If you want to venture further afield, why not head up the Skirrid, Sugar Loaf and Black Mountains – all viewable from the garden.

This is the perfect place for little ones and four-legged friends to roam but there’s plenty to explore in the local area if you fancy a change of scenery. Breathe in the sweet scent of lime blossom as you travel down the 800-metre private road leading out of the estate – with Westonbirt Arboretum, Berkeley Castle, and The Cotswold Water Park all within striking distance, you've got plenty of destinations to choose from so why not ditch the GPS and see where the day takes you?
