Flittermouse Barn, nestled on the edge of Hornsea in East Riding of Yorkshire, is a charming two-hundred-year-old barn ideal for couples seeking a romantic escape. With its exceptional interiors and tranquil surroundings, the barn features a beautifully landscaped private garden and an inviting outdoor space that includes a large patio, a covered gazebo with seating, and a barbeque, perfect for enjoying the warmer months. The barn's design incorporates open ceilings that showcase the timber structure, complemented by exposed brickwork and polished concrete floors, creating a unique blend of rustic charm and modern elegance.
Inside, Flittermouse Barn offers a serene open-plan living area that encompasses a well-equipped kitchen, a dining space, and a cozy sitting area complete with Wi-Fi, a TV, and a wood-burning stove. The thoughtfully designed layout includes a spacious hallway leading to a comfortable bedroom featuring a king-size bed, a wall-mounted Samsung 'frame' Smart television, and a vaulted ceiling that adds to the airy feel. The bathroom is a standout feature, boasting a traditional cast iron bath and a separate shower enclosure, providing a touch of luxury and character to the space.
Set within the grounds of Weatherhill Farm, the barn offers breathtaking countryside views and an enchanting outdoor experience. Guests can unwind in the Hikki wood-fired hot tub while stargazing or relax in the covered seating area, surrounded by the sights and sounds of nearby woodlands. Nature enthusiasts may encounter deer and owls and hear the distant calls of woodpeckers, all within the expansive 37 acres of pasture and woodland that envelop the property. This idyllic setting makes Flittermouse Barn an ideal retreat for couples looking to recharge and reconnect.
For those willing to venture beyond the barn, a scenic lakeside walk leads to the vibrant town of Hornsea, where visitors can explore local bars, cafes, and independent shops. A short drive to the historical market town of Beverley is also recommended, where one can enjoy the bustling Saturday Market, admire the stunning architecture of Beverley Minster, and relax in the peaceful Coronation Garden. Additionally, a trip to Bridlington offers sandy beaches and impressive chalk cliffs at Bempton, along with the opportunity to visit the RSPB seabird centre. Flittermouse Barn serves as the perfect base for a memorable getaway in Yorkshire, combining comfort, nature, and local attractions.
