Orchard Barn ... inside the long barn




Inside the long barn we were adventurous. We decided no new walls so we created a "walk-in bathroom" with only a partial partition wall to separate the sleeping area. Bathroom and sleeping area had doors opening onto the patio. The whole suite faced the morning sun in the courtyard which was made private by a high stone wall. The dovetailed oak bath surround came in a moment of inspiration and has always provoked comment. The bed was a design I originally drew to make a bed for the aupair. My wife decided it was too good for the aupair so that was that! (There's more to that story. It's all respectable and decent but can't be told here for diplomatic reasons)
