South West - Devon - Ilfracombe
Otter Pool Barn
Tastefully renovated barn, environmentally friendly holiday accommodation sleeping up to 12 guests.
The conversion of this centuries old, former threshing barn is dramatic, with a triple height majestic fireplace, hand crafted exposed ceiling beams, gargoyles and a Minstrel’s Gallery. The grand staircase has been relocated from an 18th century grand house and the wood panelling and stained glass are also reclamation treasures. It is extremely well equipped, featuring everything you might expect in a luxury holiday home.
Indoors there is the Great Hall, a snug lounge, a huge kitchen/diner, six bedrooms and three bathrooms. Outdoors there is a sheltered, south facing, courtyard with barbecue and seating. The garden has children’s play equipment and a swim spa/hot tub, as well as the large field and lake.
The barn has extensive living accommodation, sleeps 12 in six bedrooms, a swim spa and over five acres of private land, with a private lake, suitable for fishing and water sports.
Wheelchair access and facilities for disabled guests
The property is suitable for disabled and non-disabled guests with full disability facilities provided throughout and with a lift to the upstairs bedrooms – all rooms are wheelchair accessible. The land and swim spa have also been provided with the facilities required to make them fully available to those with disabilities.
Ceiling and mobile hoists
With six accessible bedrooms, two downstairs and four upstairs, it is anticipated that any combination of family, friends, carers and mobility requirements can be catered for. Four profiling beds are provided. Two in bedroom one (with the x-y ceiling hoist) and two in separate rooms upstairs, a mobile hoist is available if required. Visitors will need to bring their own slings to use with the hoists.
Doors
Doors throughout the property are oak and fitted to slide internally in the walls, minimising obstruction and enabling easy use, by those with limited mobility. Floors are all level, with durable, low glare, non-slip surfaces ideal for use with walking aids or wheelchairs. External doors are fitted with flush doorsills to enable easy access.
