Thornyfield barn is one of Sykes cottage properties and is located not far from Windermere in the Lake District. It is down a long single lane track but well worth it at the end. On arrival there is plenty of parking space for 4 cars and the area is just beautiful.
The barn is split over a few levels. The front door leads you into the stunning modern kitchen with everything you need. It’s well kitted out with enough crockery and a few essentials (salt/pepper/tea/coffee). The sliding doors lead out to garden and on the other side, the wooden hallway leads to 2 bedrooms and stairs to the living area.
The living area is spectacular, with exposed beams, standout log fire and another set of sliding doors heading to the hot tub. There is then another small set of stairs. Leading to the other 2 bedrooms.
All 4 bedrooms are immaculate and to an incredibly high standard! 2 are superking beds with a full ensuite and the other 2 rooms can be made up as singles or super kings again. 1 of the bedrooms has the bathroom opposite (across the corridor) and the other is accessed through 2 doors, one from the bedroom, and one from the hall.
No dogs are allowed in the bedroom or on the furniture but to be honest ours were so tired after their day, they didn’t care where they slept!
The barn boats a gorgeous hot tub outside and not overlooked and the area is just stunning.
Outside was amazing! Having 2 sliding doors meant the place was big enough to relax in the living area or the kitchen, or the hot tub!
The Garden is completely enclosed, however just be aware if you have dogs that happily jump over walls! Although enclosed, there are parts of the wall that is quite low, and would be easy for a dog to jump over! On the other side however there is a little stream that was fast flowing at times. Thankfully, none of ours seemed bothered and it wasn’t something we stressed over!
