About this property

Stylish Scottish, book-filled getaway with beautiful walks

With the old world country charm of a log burning stove, and a huge four poster bed, Barns Library is in a beautiful courtyard, with it's own garden and a step away from fabulous walks in every direction.
Barns Library has a huge library of interesting books covering history, fiction, art, travel and much more. The four poster bed is particularly sumptuous and unwinding in a deep bubble bath has to be the best way to relax after a long bracing walk through the beautiful countryside.

About the host

Hosted by Lulu Benson

Host profile image
Barns Library, forms part of an 18th stable block, at the heart of the Barns Estate, which has been in the owner's family for a few generations. The current generation has sought to rescue the beautiful but dilapidated buildings by giving them a new lease of life as comfortable and elegant places to stay.

Why they chose this property

The building wasn't purchased, but was part of the responsibility taken on by the current owners when they took over the surrounding farm.

What makes this property unique

Barns Library, is full of wonderful books to browse through during your stay, including books on scottish history, travel books, and novels. It is also on one level, so easy to navigate for those who don't enjoy stairs, with a door straight into the private garden.
