A CONVERTED HAY-BARN WITH A MODERN RUSTIC INTERIOR.
Wellhayes Barn has been converted to an exceptionally high standard into a 2-3 bedroom property with a contemporary interior which references the building's previous function and features furniture designed and made by James Verner. It's size and situation makes it perfect for a family holiday or as a romantic bolthole for two.

Much of the timber used in the conversion has been ‘upcycled’ from the original building. The building is entered via a heavy ledged and braced front door made from locally sourced timber which opens to reveal the open plan kitchen, dining and living space, complete with an oil fired Aga and views over the lake to the East Devon Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty beyond.
The Kitchen dining area with Aga and Radius Table by Simon Pengelly is a welcoming space to return to and enjoy creating fantastic meals from fresh local produce.
The landing with vintage desk and cantilevered oak chair by James Verner makes a great place for reading and writing; there's also a discrete alcove in which we've put an extra double bed.
BEDROOMS
There are 2 double bedrooms, one en suite and the other with its own designated shower room. A third double bed, in it's own private space in an alcove off the first floor landing, provides further accommodation for up to two more guests.
"By far the most comfortable bed we've ever slept in" J.E. Cambridge.
The Master Bedroom: Has views over the lake to the hills of East Devon and large super king-size bed.
The en-suite bathroom has a freestanding bath positioned below a skylight, the wood-burning stove offers a romantic glow at any time of year.
The Downstairs Bedroom: is a double bedroom with a twin zip-lock bed that can convert to a twin when necessary.
The spalted Beech headboard was created from timber harvested from the woodland by James.
Downstairs there is a beautifully finished shower room and WC.
