Renovation has taken nearly three years to complete; The Old Barn at Ormidale is the most luxurious of our three properties, Ormidale House and Ormidale Mill House being the other two. The kitchen and living areas retain their original exposed stone walls and throughout the ground floor is a travertine marble floor. The entire property benefits from constant underfloor heating from an environmentally sustainable ground source heat pump.

The kitchen/breakfast room is wonderfully light as it features a large glass archway with a door out to the private cobbled courtyard terrace. The worksurface is granite with oak cabinets beneath and there is a stone Belfast sink. To further underline our commitment to quality we have installed the most up-to-date Neff, Gaggia and Bosch kitchen appliances. There is an American-style fridge freezer, a single oven, a double oven, a microwave, a halogen hob, a large toaster and even a coffee machine. The expandable island unit will seat up to eight guests.

Off the kitchen leading through an open exposed stone arch is a large sitting room with three sofas. There is also a separate television room seating up to 12 which can be converted into a double bedroom. The dining room has a table which can seat eight guests or be expanded to seat up to 14.
