Haye Barton Farm

Haye Barton Farm is a huge, detached, completely private, south-facing farmhouse on three levels, looking over 115 acres of farmland and bluebell woods which are all yours to roam and explore with care; there is a river - great for older children but small children should be supervised. The village of St.Ive is 1½ miles away and the house is approached over its own track. Historically visited daily by the famous Emily Hobbhouse, where she would collect her fresh milk, eggs and logs for her fire. Step inside a huge farmhouse kitchen with dining table and chairs one end with wood-burning stove and flagstone floor, with the added novelty of a glass-topped original well by the sink! Walk through to an equally large living room with inglenook and wood-burning stove. At this level there is a big utility room and toilet. Head up the stairs to five bedrooms, three king-size and one romantic super king-size four-poster and two twin. Family bathroom and shower-room. Take a few more stairs up to a second living room-cum-den with double sofa bed and a super-king double bedroom with en suite shower-room - in this room there are some sloping beams. Immediately in front, there is a small, enclosed walled garden. Once all was thriving with a variety of farming activities, now the surrounding barns are mostly vacant. An open-ended barn contains table tennis and badminton and the rest provide sanctuary for swallows. This is a great central spot from which to explore the county, but once here you might not want to leave! This is a terrific family house offering freedom for children.
