Stables and other disused farm buildings can often be conserved and refurbished to provide luxurious holiday accommodation which can once again provide an income. In this example of a category B listed stable range dating from the late eighteenth century, though much altered since, our design retained the open character of the loose boxes and original window openings; we even managed to reuse the dung pits (cleaned out!) as a decked terrace area and preserved original features such as the dividing posts from the horse stalls. Using maple flooring and sealed softwood maintains the traditional cottage atmosphere, while high insulation, a condensing boiler and woodburning stove, ensure comfort.
