A bespoke barn conversion with an indoor botanical garden and cocktail lounge set on a working sheep farm in the North Pennines National Landscape.
Tulip Barn is a truly stunning conversion set on a progressive working sheep farm in the heart of the beautiful Northumberland countryside. Surrounded by rolling hills and friendly horses grazing nearby, this unique retreat combines luxury, character and thoughtful design throughout.
A clever blend of two converted former farm buildings linked by a striking glass walkway, the property has underfloor heating and bespoke handmade furniture throughout. At its heart is the impressive open-plan lounge, kitchen, and dining area, housed within the former gingang roundhouse. The curved design of the building is echoed in the specially made leather sofas, creating a wonderfully relaxing space to unwind. Guests can enjoy evenings around the walnut baby grand piano, settle in for film nights with the Smart TV, or escape to the fairy tale-inspired library complete with a hidden reading snug and electric wood burner.
Adding to the sense of indulgence is the heated indoor Victorian-style botanic garden, with comfortable seating, a telescope, and a calming water feature. The beautifully designed kitchen is ideal for large groups, equipped with high-end appliances and plenty of space for cooking and entertaining. A huge central dining table brings everyone together for sociable meals, while the elegant Art Deco-style cocktail bar area offers comfortable seating, chandeliers, a Smart TV, and Bluetooth speaker. Bi-fold doors open onto the patio, seamlessly blending indoor and outdoor living.
Outside, the enclosed garden enjoys lovely countryside views, with plenty of outdoor furniture and timber gazebos for relaxing in the fresh air. The standout feature is undoubtedly the spectacular 18ft heated infinity pool, set beneath a private covered area just beyond the bi-fold doors. Complete with aqua rolling massage loungers and resistance technology for swimming and exercise, it offers the perfect place to relax and recharge.
Situated in the heart of Hadrian's Wall country, Tulip Barn is perfectly placed for exploring one of Britain’s most iconic landscapes. Families and friends can walk or cycle sections of this UNESCO World Heritage Site and visit nearby Roman forts and museums including Vindolanda and Housesteads Roman Fort. Historic Hexham Abbey is just over nine miles away, while Hexham itself offers charming shops, cafés, restaurants, and riverside walks. Nearby Corbridge is another fantastic destination, known for its Roman heritage, independent shops, historic pubs and scenic walks along the river.
