About this property

Quirky Luxury Barn Sleeps 8, Pet Friendly

The Old Granary has an eclectic vibe all of its own. Situated just outside Calne, opposite the Cherhill white horse & Calstone in Quemerford Gate, there is accommodation for 8 people in various different formats, as well as a beautiful garden to enjoy with a covered pergola seating 12 people and a BBQ area. The garden is secure and as dog owners ourselves we welcome well behaved dogs. A perfect place to relax and enjoy walking onto the Wiltshire downs straight from the front door.

Quemerford Gate is a small hamlet located in the centre of Wiltshire, a short drive from Avebury and Bowood House. Visitors have direct access by foot onto the Marlborough Downs and various walks up to the Cherhill White Horse.

The Granary is newly refurbished with a new kitchen and bathrooms, as well as decorating throughout. Please browse our photos to see more about each room.

Our accommodation is for 8 people and we can set up the sleeping arrangements in various ways to suit guests.

Sleeping accommodation is as follows (please also see the diagram in our listing pictures):

Master bedroom (the green room) with a 5 ft king size bed. This room also has a single sofa bed for a child and plenty of room for a travel cot. There is a shared family bathroom upstairs for this room and the second bedroom. The family bathroom includes a bath with overhead and hand shower.

Second bedroom (the blue room) is in two parts. There is a sleeping area with two 3ft twin beds. A further sleeping area with a standard 4ft 6 double. Please see the diagram where you will see there are two sleeping areas within the same room.

The landing has space for laundry and suitcases.

Small downstairs bedroom with ensuite shower room (the yellow room). This bedroom is located off the downstairs hallway and kitchen. It has a small 4ft double bed. The bed has surrounding cushions and so this room can be used as a sitting room. The ensuite shower room has a toilet, small sink and walk in power shower with body jets. This bathroom is used as the downstairs cloakroom.

Additional downstairs office / sitting room / bedroom (the grey room). This versatile room is at the front of the house in an extension with sliding doors. The room is painted a dark perse grey and has a large double sofa bed. There is a TV in this room as it also doubles up as a sitting room.

The large “granary room” has both a seating, TV area and dining area. This open plan room is decorated with antiquities and fun wall hangings, guitars and paintings so there is plenty to see! Leading off the granary is the downstairs office / sitting room / bedroom (the grey room) and the kitchen. There is a glass door out to the garden that forms the main entrance to the house.

The full kitchen has an induction hob, electric oven, combi microwave, Aga (lit only in the winter) as well as a new kitchen including an American fridge freezer, dishwasher, double sink, washing machine and sorting bin. There are plates and cutlery for children, indoor and outdoor dining and a multitude of cooking equipment. There is a Nespresso coffee machine and Ninja soup maker / blender.

The fully stocked garden has a pergola with seating for 8 very comfortably and 12 in total. The pretty garden can be viewed from the pergola and the sunken BBQ area is accessed right next to it. There are some water feature troughs and a further table and chairs on a patio outside the potting shed. The garden is secure for children and dogs, and the property is accessed via the garden gate.

There is parking in the drive for around 4 cars and security cameras at the front of the property.
