Acorn — New

Living

Seek slow mornings and relaxed afternoons in the embrace of the open-plan living area. Adorned in natural hues and framed by stunning oak beams, this darling space provides a sumptuous setting for luxuriation throughout the day. Exuding comfort, a French Connection corner sofa and leather armchair sit beside a rustic oak chest and glass doors that open onto the suntrap patio. Cosy up with a glass of something special in hand and gaze at the verdant tapestry beyond the windows, or relish entertainment from the Smart TV.

Eating and dining

The epitome of country charm, Acorn's kitchen sets the scene for epicurean endeavours. Perfect for culinary creativity, teal cabinetry with a polished stone worktop and Belfast sink promises ample space to craft repasts, complemented by integrated appliances such as a dishwasher, Neff oven and induction hob, microwave, fridge with freezer, washing machine and more. A Nespresso coffee machine also awaits for aromatic mornings spent in tranquil quietude on the sofa or overlooking the dew-kissed lawns.

To savour dreamy feasts with your nearest and dearest, a glass-topped dining table for four resides beside floor-to-ceiling windows. Gather together over leisurely lunches and candlelit dinners and enjoy the bucolic backdrop as plates are shared.

Sleeping and bathing

Acorn features two luxurious bedrooms on the ground floor, each with pocket sprung mattresses and memory foam top layers.

The first bedroom is a peaceful haven in blush shades. The focal point, a brass-framed super king size bed is enveloped in the highest quality linens and topped with sumptuous pillows and throws. Equally welcoming, the second bedroom features a king size zip-and-link bed that can be converted into twin beds upon requirement. Perfect for friends or children, this room is bathed in tranquil tones and completed with a built-in wardrobe for stowing belongings.

Resting between the two bedrooms, a family bathroom with soft grey wainscoting and a walk-in rainfall shower can be found on the ground floor.

Outdoor space

Step outside to find the sheltered terrace, where magical mornings and starlit evenings weave unforgettable memories. Inviting alfresco brunches and suppers are a bistro set for two and a dining table and chairs for four, accompanied by a gas barbecue. For cosy nights under the cosmos, a fire pit is also available.

Spa facilities

For all on-site guests at Mount Barns there is a fantastic outdoor spa facility available for guest use. Boasting rolling country views, this idyllic space is a dream in every season, with an outdoor pool, sunken whirlpool hot tub, ice bath and a sauna. The pool is heated from April to October and is also available for cold water dips outside of this period. Summer days are best spent poolside, with loungers for basking in the sun, and bistro tables in cosy corners. With a wealth of health benefits, relish rejuvenating moments as you relax in the sauna and channel your inner Wim Hoff with icy dips in the cold-water plunge bath. Restore a sense of calm with massages, reiki, reflexology or yoga which can be booked at The Nook, the on-site treatment room. Rinse muddy paws at the dog wash station after exploring your beautiful surroundings, with ten acres of private grounds waiting to be uncovered. Savour mindful walks in the wildflower meadow up to the ancient oak tree, the dreamiest spot for champagne picnics.
