The Store

The Store is a converted stone barn on Southdown Farm near Malborough, its exposed stone walls and black window frames set around a gravel driveway with fields running down to a distant sea view.

An olive green kitchen with exposed beams

Inside, an olive green fitted kitchen runs to an oven and dishwasher, its dining table set for breakfast beside a staircase and within sight of the living room sofa. The living room itself keeps cream sofas and an exposed ceiling beam, the open-plan layout carrying through from the entrance.

Twin and double bedrooms with stone feature walls

Two bedrooms include one a twin room with an exposed stone feature wall and a skylight, the other dressed with a blue throw and a breakfast tray. The two bathrooms follow the same stone-and-beam finish, one with a floating vanity and a glazed walk-in shower, the other tucked beneath a sloped, skylit ceiling.

A patio for barbecues and outdoor dining

A stone-flagged patio holds wooden lounge chairs and a coffee table, with a separate outdoor dining table set beside a wooden fence for barbecues, the barn's roofline visible behind it at dusk.

Farm tracks and coastal valleys

A country lane runs between hedgerows and a green coastal valley down to cliffs and the sea, the kind of walking country around the farm.

A pet-friendly barn conversion for a small group

With two bedrooms, two bathrooms, parking and a garden, The Store suits a couple or small family wanting a quiet farm setting close to Hope Cove rather than the town centre itself.
