Luxury 5* Gold & ROSE Award self-catering converted barn, idyllic rural setting

*** VisitEngland ROSE Award winner 2023 ***

The ROSE (Recognition of Service Excellence) Award celebrates and champions the accommodation businesses across England who go above and beyond to provide excellent customer service, irrespective of their star rating or type of accommodation. Only 100 awards given yearly.

Dairy Barn is a luxury 5* Gold Award 3-bedroom barn conversion in an idyllic rural setting within an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty (ANOB). A perfect place to get away from the hustle and bustle of everyday life and enjoy the surrounding beauty of St Martin's Down, South Down and Wroxall Down and their associated flora and fauna.

Dairy Barn was built in the 1800s of traditional stone as a dairy parlour but was tastefully converted to a holiday unit in 2005 and since when it has been maintained to a very high standard. With a fully equipped kitchen, sunny lounge, separate dining room and 3 en-suite bedrooms all with King size beds on the first floor, it has everything you will possibly need to relax and enjoy your stay in comfort.

Dairy Barn is located on a 950-acre Aberdeen Angus working farm well known for its conservation both nationally and internationally. Miles of public rights of way criss-cross the all-grassland farm or within a few yards of the property from which you can explore the local countryside on foot or by bike and enjoy the magnificent landscapes the Island has to offer.

Although "hidden away" in such an idyllic and rural location, it is only a short drive away from the popular seaside resorts of Ventnor, Shanklin and Sandown and the many other attractions the Island has to offer.

THE PROPERTY IS ON A WORKING FARM, SO UNFORTUNATELY WE ARE UNABLE ACCEPT CHILDREN UNDER 12 (except babes in arms). It is also not suitable for wheelchair users or people with mobility issues as the bedrooms are all located on the first floor via a stair case with no lift. Please contact our Property Manager, Sally Richards, for further details, or to request a copy of our Access Statement.
