About this property

Character 16th Century Barn -Gym and Games Room

Pope Barn was originally a medieval farmhouse with thick stone walls and exposed oak beams. Full of charm and converted in 2019, the barn is within a farmyard courtyard setting, retains many original features and is tastefully decorated with contemporary touches.

Located on the Wiltshire/Somerset border in the ancient hamlet of Woolley Green, Pope Barn is within a short walking distance of historic Bradford on Avon and only a 7 mile drive or 15 minute train ride to beautiful Georgian Bath.

Pope barn is attractive, inviting and full of character, with underfloor heating and a wood burning stove. You can cosy up in the winter, or enjoy al fresco dining in the private courtyard in the warmer months. The barn sleeps 2 to 8 people with a spacious king size main/family bedroom which has an additional single/day bed and pullout single trundle bed. The second spacious super king size double/twin bedroom is light and airy with exposed oak features. There is also a double sofa bed in the comfortable lounge.

There is a spa hotel 100m close by with restaurant and treatments available. 800m away is an excellent pub/restaurant and half a mile further on are a number of good restaurants and pubs in picturesque Bradford on Avon. The barn is close to a public footpath leading to open fields and panoramic views of the Wiltshire downs and Salisbury Plain.

The barn has everything needed for a luxurious, relaxing break. The kitchen/diner is fully equipped to feed and seat 8 people in comfort. Outside there is a private patio/courtyard with a barbecue and wooden dining furniture. The barn is child friendly with fitted stair gates, fireguard, cot, highchair and bed guards.

There is a well-equipped gym and games room on-site shared with our other barn.

House is one of the best top to bottom
This house is an absolute gem. Finding and getting into the courtyard for parking and entry into the house is very challenging though because of the location of the driveway entry on a narrow curving roadway with fairly fast moving traffic. As a first time visitor it was missed on the first try and frightening difficult on the second try because of traffic. Once inside the group of dwellings is delightful in every way. An absolutely beautiful home. Just wish the location was just a bit easier to find and then enter.

Perfect spot!
Was only here for a short stay as my son was playing rugby locally - the barn is perfect has everything you need. It was a shame he was studying for GCSE’s as we didn’t go beyond the rugby pitch and the front door but it is very close to lots of places to eat. Very comfortable bed and lovely hot water! Kitchen is well equipped and lounge very comfortable even! Will definitely be back!

About the host

Hosted by Keith Potter

Host profile image
We are Keith and Paula. We are second-time-around couple with 7 children between us, the youngest being teenagers. Keith ran technology companies and Paula was a science technician. We bought Woolley Barn Farm back in 2014 and after converting the semi-derelict farmhouse rebuilt the two stone barns (Pope and Roost Barn) and old wooden chicken hut. (Gym/Games room). Our next project is to do some small-scale farming with our two adjacent fields.
