This beautiful, converted barn with space for up to four guests is the ultimate countryside family escape. Designed with plenty of modern pizzazz while honouring its ancient oak timbers and perfectly located to explore the surrounding National Landscape. Arrival is via a meandering woodland drive opening into a peaceful glade, where the property rises from the southern slopes of Leith Hill and commands sweeping views reaching the South Downs 20 miles away. Nearby, set off for Holmbury Hill (2 miles) to soak up big-sky scenery, then wander through Leith Hill (1.5 miles) with its mix of woodland, heath and farmland, and open access land on Wotton and Abinger Commons. National Trust gems abound, including Abinger Roughs, Hatchlands, and Netley Park (4 miles), where ancient trees shelter wildflower-strewn clearings, and Denbies Hillside (7 miles), a dramatic chalk escarpment. Golfers will love the scenic course (8 miles), and plant lovers will enjoy a trip to RHS Wisley (14 miles).
Step inside to a bright, L-shaped, open-plan living space where a vaulted double-height ceiling soars above the dining area, overlooked by a galleried landing and lit by statement lighting. Beyond, the sleek kitchen comes fully equipped with an electric Rangemaster stove and a breakfast bar for perching with coffee, while the large sitting area invites you to sink into plush sofas and armchairs, plus it has child-friendly stools. Upstairs, two bedrooms branch off the gallery: a super-king-size and a twin. The gorgeous family bathroom boasts an indulgent teardrop bath with a floor-standing tap.
Outside, French doors lead to a patio and lawn overlooking woodland and soul-soothing views, an idyllic spot for evening drinks. There is private parking available for 4 cars.
