This beautifully refurbished barn conversion with high vaulted ceilings, exposed original wooden beams, a stone fireplace with a cosy wood-burning stove, and a tranquil garden with rural views, is the ideal home for peaceful countryside retreats. Located in Cold Aston – a picturesque village surrounded by countryside – this home has great access to cycling routes and footpaths right from your doorstep. So, after breakfast, why not head out to explore the area and then have lunch at the local pub? What’s more, the farm on which this home sits hosts a variety of activities, from clay shooting in the summer to game shooting in the winter. While on rainy days, the home’s sun room or living room are great spots to curl up with a good book. In the evening, we would love to fire up the barbecue and dine alfresco in the garden to enjoy the amazing views over the fields that are on offer. Then, slip into the soothing bubbles of the log-fired eco-friendly hot tub for a relaxing moment of bliss, accompanied by a glass of wine. When the night turns chilly, head inside and snuggle up in front of the fire for the perfect end to the day.
