"Often combining traditional exteriors with ultra-modern interiors, barn conversions have been described as a classic example of effective property recycling."

"Barn conversions have long appealed for their characterful architecture and light and spacious interiors. "

"Some might say their favourite place in their home is the garden or the kitchen, but for a number of us the best room is the one that has been especially designed for having fun."

"With double height rooms, impressive vaulted ceilings and open plan areas that provide a great sense of space and light – the very best barn conversions really do have the ‘wow-factor’."

"The most successful examples combine original features with new-build practicality."

"You really can make that dream of a rural idyll into a reality."

"Characterful properties with state-of-the-art creature comforts."

"Why you could wait up to a year before work can start."

"If your entertaining is limited by the size of your kitchen or dining room, how about a separate space for having fun?"

"Permitted development rights mean that barns, even new ones, can now be converted into a more modern style."
