‘‘Character conversions in a tranquil countryside location with an abundance of wildlife’’
Tucked away in a quiet rural location on the edge of picturesque Chittlehampton, these superb adjoining barn conversions date back to the 1870s and lie within the grounds of the owner’s thatched farmhouse. Backing onto open countryside, they have been renovated to a high standard and offer excellent accommodation – perfect for exploring the area. Each property has its own sitting-out area overlooking ponds, where there is an abundance of wildlife.
