This barn conversion caught our attention because of its uninterrupted views across the Wiltshire countryside, sweeping all the way to Bath. Step outside and you’ll find a south-facing terrace that’s perfect for sunny days relaxing or dining alfresco in the fresh air. Inside, underfloor heating and a log-burning stove keep things cosy year-round, while the barn's traditional beams make it feel like a true country escape. Beyond the farm’s pastures, you’re within easy reach of Corsham, the Cotswolds and countless National Trust landmarks – making this a rural retreat with heritage, hiking and history right on your doorstep.

Home truths
The barn is set on a working biodynamic farm, so you may hear animals and farm activity during your stay.
The setting is wonderfully peaceful and rural, so a car is essential for exploring nearby towns, villages, and heritage sites. There is ample private parking on the driveway.
If you're travelling with little ones, your host can provide a travel cot and high chair for free. You'll need to request them in advance.
