Two original stone byre arches provide striking architectural features, opening out to the private courtyard. Vaulted ceilings, exposed beams, and Velux windows create a sense of light and space, while a traditional multi-fuel log burner with a ceiling-height flue brings warmth and character to the lounge area.
