The Beds in the Barn are a rough and ready rustic retreat in a wonderful 300 year old barn with a unique ‘back-packer’ meets ‘tree-house’ feel. Bamboo screens separate two sleeping areas, both with 4 beds in each. A family might be all together, or parents could stay on one side, while their teenage kids stay on the other, creating a sense of closeness and separation at the same time. It’s not private, but discreet. Only people known to you or the group will be occupying this space. Associated seating areas on the mezzanine level are also exclusive to those staying in the beds. At this level, you’ll have plenty of space to make your own during your stay.

At ground level, the kitchen, showers, wash basins, toilets and pool table are all available for shared use by other guests at UTLT. Note that ‘other guests’ might also include Pipistrelle bats and generations of Red-Start birds who have been happily nesting and hibernating in the eaves and hidden rooftop spaces for years - don’t be put off though, they’ll soon get used to you!

The Barn is a 400m2 building on two levels and simply too spacious to heat, so do bring plenty of layers to wrap up if the summer weather lets us down!

The kitchen is available for shared storage of food and drinks and there is also the possibility to self-cater if preferred. Please note that all catering and self-catering at UTLT is strictly vegetarian or vegan. A supplement of 5€ is applied daily for use of the gas cooker.
