Standing
Stone is set on the edge of our farmland at Bant's Carn, overlooking
fields and marvellous seas, and is the first of two secluded houses
to be carefully converted from a nineteenth century farm building.
|
|
 |
Downstairs
it has a large double bedroom and bathroom en suite, giving onto the
front garden through french windows. Also downstairs there is a twin
bedded room, and a large, light shower room.
|
|
Upstairs
the light and airy studio-sitting room reveals the most stunning of
Scillonian views, with the help of a conservatory which houses the dining
table. A roof patio with garden furniture leads off the conservatory
and extends the feeling of space and freedom.
|
|
|
The
open plan kitchen is also upstairs, so whoever is doing the cooking
can continue to marvel at the views. Standing Stone is decorated and
appointed throughout to a high standard. There is a dishwasher, night
storage heating for winter holidays, CD/radio/tape player, television,
video, hair dryer, washing machine and drying facilities and a heated
towel rail in the shower room. All linen is provided, including towels
and beach towels.

Standing
Stone Terrace, the second house, has been converted with equal attention
to detail. Slightly smaller than Standing Stone, it nonetheless has
a wonderfully welcoming atmosphere.
|
| Again
upstairs, the kitchen, complete with dishwasher, is open to the large
sitting room, which has a television, video and CD/radio/tape player.
The dining table is in the conservatory - perfectly situated for the sunset!
The views from the whole of the upstairs are equally as impressive as
those of next door.
Leading
off through patio doors is a large private terrace with picnic table.
The mature front garden is shared between the two houses, and there
are plenty of sunny corners with garden chairs.
Downstairs,
Standing Stone Terrace has a twin-bedded room with a door leading to
the garden, a second bedroom with either two 2'6" beds or a 5'
double, with a shower and bath. The washing machine is in a separate
building and available to both houses.
As with
Standing Stone, there is a hair dryer, and all linen is provided, including
towels and beach towels. There are night storage heaters in each room,
and a heated towel rail in the shower room. A robust construction makes
Standing Stone Terrace ideal for winter holidays as well as spring,
autumn and summer!
The change
over for Standing Stone & Standing Stone Terrace is on a Wednesday. |
