Property description

“the style and appeal of a traditional
barn conversion with a modern twist”

The interior of our Rochester Lodge has the style and appeal of a traditional barn conversion with stained exposed beams spanning the double width of this holiday home creating a wonderful inviting atmosphere.

The entrance to this home is through the hall on the side elevation and features flush oak veneer doors and a fully tiled floor, whilst to the right is a practical utility room with integrated appliances and an ideal place for leaving those muddy boots after a walk in the country.

A  striking patterned wallpaper greets you as you enter the inner hallway and leads you around into the spacious open plan area that combines the dining, kitchen and living rooms.

Timber beams create an eye catching feature together with a timber tongue and groove vaulted ceiling which makes this space feel really light and airy, yet reassuringly cosy and welcoming at the same time.

Our interior design scheme is based on a natural theme taken from thecolours of the countryside which enhance the sense of ‘being at one with nature’. Furnishings are high quality and stylish, contemporary wall radiators complement the eclectic styling of the scheme.

Large cathedral windows, long drop windows and skylights in the dining area and kitchen allow the maximum amount of light to flood through this space.

The kitchen has warm oak cabinets and is combined with high quality integrated appliances, plus an island unit/breakfast bar.

The family bathroom is accessible from the inner hall and is half tiled to dado height with a decorative border. It includes a bath, toilet and semi recessed basin. 

Two double bedrooms are located at one end of the lodge. The master bedroom boasts a walk-in wardrobe and a spacious ensuite shower room. A skylight in here makes this a lovely light room. Fitted wardrobes make maximum use of all available storage space. Full length curtains and luxurious bedding make these rooms ideal for rest and relaxation.

All in all the Rochester is a wonderful welcoming holiday lodge featuring a combination of warmth, luxury, comfort and functionality.

As with all our holiday homes we offer a standard colour scheme, but you can also make use of our Bespoke Design service to create a truly personal lodge.

External finishes are available in Canexel, Timber Log Lap or Thermowood external cladding.
