Cutter's Barn

A beautiful brick and stone barn that sleeps 6, Cutter’s Barn has been recently refurbished to a very high standard and is set on a small livestock farm in stunning rural Buckinghamshire. Magnificent views of rolling hills and valleys on the edge of the Chiltern Hills, Cattle and Sheep share the surrounding pastures with abundant wild bird and animal life. The barn has been furnished to a very high standard with British, hand made bespoke furniture, curtains and blinds. The hosts are proprietors of an Interior design and Curtain making and furnishing business so have gone for the WOW factor. Sustainable renewable energy heating and hot water systems have been installed. The heating is permanently set at 21 degrees C downstairs and 18 degrees C upstairs but radiators upstairs can be adjusted with thermostatic valves. A fully equipped kitchen includes dish washer, washing machine, electric oven and hobs, microwave, fridge/freezer and an extensive range of cooking equipment. A large open plan living space contains a dining table and a selection of very comfortable hand made British sofas and chairs. There is wireless internet throughout the property. The upper floor is fitted with British Herdwick Carpets and all beds have Hypnos mattresses. Upstairs there are one King size bed and en suite shower room, a second king size bedroom, a third twin bedroom and a family bathroom. There are wardrobes with hangers in each bedroom. An Iron, ironing board, clothes airer and pegs and hair dryer are included in the property. Guests have full use of the barn and an area of garden and free parking.
