Drakes Barn in Swindon, Wiltshire.

Drakes Barn
Swindon

A small group of barns, saved from the ravages of time, have been converted into lovely holiday cottages, each having a different personality with distinct, relaxing d&eacute;cor. The outside spaces have seclusion along with distant views of the countryside including the local White Horse on the hillside. Drakes Barn (PEEZ) is a stunning, detached barn conversion, originally built in the 1800s, and is overlooking a large pond with waterfall feature and ducks. This barn has been carefully converted for holiday accommodation using bespoke oak structures to offer a light and contemporary/shaker-style space with extensive views over rolling countryside. Eagle Barn (PHHB) and Owl Barn (PHHC) are contemporary barns with all the original, old, restored pine beams and large bespoke oak windows and doors. The use of green oak for the frame adds another soft touch. The d&eacute;cor in Eagle Barn is warm cream, gold and green colours while Owl Barn boasts soft, warm, maple and coffee colours. Located near the village of Clyffe Pypard and the town of Wootton Bassett, the properties are very close to the Ridgeway National Trail and the Wiltshire Cycleway. Also nearby are Swindon and the famous Stonehenge and Avebury Stone Circle along with trendy Bath, Lacock Village, Marlborough, Castle Combe, Cirencester, and Malmesbury Abbey and Gardens. There are several excellent golf courses nearby as well as lovely pubs and wonderful eating establishments.
