Lovely barn conversion in rural setting 3 miles from the centre of Bristol

The Old Barn at Trymwood is a 2 bedroom cottage attached to the Grade 2 listed house known as Trymwood in the historic village of Westbury on Trym just 3 miles from the centre of Bristol. The house is reported to be the oldest in the village. The barn was originally part of the farm buildings, later becoming a scullery for the main house, and evidence of the old range and bread oven are still in place as is the meat salting sink. The farm appears to have been involved in milling and cider making and there was quarrying further up the valley. There is a large sitting/dining room and 2 bedrooms upstairs under the eaves. Contemporary bathroom and kitchen have been introduced.

There is a sofa bed in the sitting/dining room making it possible for 2 additional guests to stay.

The Trymwood farm land was dispersed over the years as Bristol grew, although the house still retains a large garden to the rear which can be used by the guests. There are lawns for badminton etc. and plenty of sitting areas as well as a pergola with table for summer picnics under the grape vine.

A restoration project was undertaken using compatible materials such as oak, lime and distemper, with lambswool to insulate the buildings where possible. Sustainable principles were followed, retaining original fabric and introducing insulation together with a highly efficient heating system. The cottage is fully self contained with its own entrance the left of the main house. There is ample parking on site.

As a guest of Lovely barn conversion in rural setting 3 miles from the centre of Bristol, you'll find barbecue grills, a garden, and laundry facilities. The front desk is open around the clock.

This Bristol cottage is smoke free.
