Welcomed by a comfortably furnished open-plan living space, where two plush sofas entice you to relax with your favourite tipple in hand as you watch your favourite show on the Smart TV. There is also a wood burner which will be set ready to light on your arrival. Make your way over to the kitchen, a well-presented space featuring integrated appliances that are bound to satisfy any aspiring chef. Enjoy a light bite at the breakfast bar or as a sit-down affair at the dining table. When sleep calls, progress through the property to find three tastefully decorated bedrooms, with the first of these being kingsize enjoying direct access to the courtyard garden as well as a fabulous en-suite bathroom featuring both a roll-top bath and walk-in shower; there is also a double bedroom also with access to the courtyard and a charming bunk room. Further along the corridor, you’ll be pleased to discover a contemporary bathroom fitted with a shower over the bath. On sunny days, make your way outside to the rear garden to relax in the wood-fired hot tub, whilst enjoying the birdsong, a space that is ideal for evening entertainment or al fresco dining thanks to its outdoor lighting or sit out in the front courtyard garden which is a real sun trap for your morning coffee.
Olive Barn lies on the edge of a Dark Sky area, meaning you can marvel at the starry sky on a clear night.
For your amenities, travel a short way into the small village of Rackenford, where you can dine out at the local pub or purchase essentials for home-cooked meals from the general store.
