“A Truly wonderful setting ,a great place to stay and to chill out .”

Sitting by the River Avon in the afternoon and evening was just really wonderful for us . There is a lot do and see in the surrounding area and plenty of NT properties to visit. We had marvellous weather so for us it was an extra bonus.
Mrs Nuttall September 2019

“Superb accommodation - space, facilities, welcome, immediate environment with beautiful garden and surroundings, as well as being really well-located for exploring the whole area around Salisbury and beyond.”
Mrs Curtis August 2019

“This delightful barn is situated in a gorgeous tranquil setting with great views from the feature window.”

Well equipped home and kitchen. Plenty of wildlife around as well as 5 pairs of swans on the river. Visited Salisbury, Stonehenge, Kingston Lacy and Longleat Safari park whilst we were there.
Mrs Griffiths August 2019

“The holiday was truly relaxing the barn was so peaceful and quite.”
Mrs Simpson June 2019

“We really enjoyed our time at Avon Turn Barn.”

The country setting is amazing so close to Salisbury. The owners were friendly and helpful. We would have no hesitation in recommending it.
Ms Kidd June 2019

“We loved the location of the accommodation.”

As wildlife enthusiasts we liked being able to sit by the river. We saw so many birds, including barn owl and kingfisher, and saw deer, hare, wood mice and water voles. The owners are very friendly but not at all intrusive. Perfect for us.
Mr Davies May 2019

“Made welcome by owners who were very friendly.”

Good position for touring the area, Salisbury, Winchester, Portsmouth museum for Mary Rose and Victory and Weald and Downland Museum. The accommodation was clean, quiet and well maintained with nice surroundings.
Mr Nuttall May 2019

“Holiday good as expected.”

Please give better directions to this property for future guests.
Mrs Farnsworth April 2019

“A beautiful, extremely clean cottage.”

Wonderful views with easy access to Salisbury. No ice box in the fridge to freeze picnic blocks though. Also when driving south in the direction of the New Forest you cannot turn right onto the A36 (Southampton Rd) despite what your SatNav says, instead drive through Aldebury and approach A36 from there. I would recommend using the Park and Ride service for both Salisbury and Winchester.
Mrs Payne November 2018

“A beautiful, well appointed barn conversion with stunning views over the lawn to the River Avon.”

Very well designed layout, everything has been thought about and all to a high specification. The wealth of wildlife visible from the windows is amazing, could have spent all our time just watching the squirrels, pheasants, water fowl and other animals. Ideally located for Salisbury and the New Forest.
Mrs Brown October 2018

“A lovely location and beautifully appointed holiday barn.”

Although only three miles from Salisbury, it was so quiet and rural, with squirrels, pheasants and deer roaming freely in the amazing gardens.
Guest's review on TripAdvisor

“The barn is in a great location, about three miles south of Salisbury, on a peaceful stretch of the River Avon.”

It's perfect for 2 - open plan, cosy, well equipped and tastefully decorated. Ideally situated for trips into the New Forest (about 10-15 minutes drive) and surrounding area with the added bonus of being able to walk to a decent pub. There's an outdoor patio area, surrounded by a lovely walled garden and the owners allow use of a decked area next to the river when they are not using it (they live in the adjoining large house - very helpful but unobtrusive. You get the impression they really want guests to enjoy the barn which was built 2/3 years ago). We spent a week there in October and thoroughly enjoyed our stay.
Guest's (from USA) review on TripAdvisor

“The cottage and grounds are excellent.”

Swans on the river, pheasant in the grounds make it seem surreal. Nice and comfortable.

Guests' review on TripAdvisor

“We have just returned from a week at Avon Turn Barn.”

What a wonderful place. The accommodation is new and spotless and the beautiful feature window looks over the gardens and the grazing sheep. Esther and Chris have thought of everything to make this a comfortable stay. Milk in the fridge, coffee and tea, a bottle of wine, fresh flowers. The bed is really comfortable and we took to having breakfast in bed, whilst watching the morning news and planning our day - pure luxury. Although we ate out a fair bit it was great to have our own kitchen facilities too - again, everything has been thought of. We had some fantastic walks and Chris was really helpful with suggestions of where we might enjoy. If you go to Salisbury cathedral try and get on a guided tour, it's free and makes it so much more interesting than wandering around on your own. I enjoyed this holiday so much more than sitting on a beach for a week, it was an absolute treat.

The property

Avon Turn Barn is set in a magical and utterly peaceful setting by the River Avon, in the grounds of an impressive country house.

The property provides stunning accommodation within an imaginatively designed, timber-clad barn.

The main living area is a large, open plan room where a 'Gothic', floor-to-ceiling window and skylights provide an immediate sense of light and space, displaying the barn's beautifully crafted, oak timber structure in all its glory.

Sit back and admire the restful views over the attractive, cob-walled kitchen garden and across the extensive lawn to the river, where an abundance of wildlife can be seen at all times of the day.

During the warmer months you can enjoy a barbecue on the paved patio area just below the barn or sit out and relax on the various garden benches overlooking the river.

About the location

SALISBURY

Andover 17 miles; Southampton 23 miles

The medieval city of Salisbury is the jewel in Wiltshire's crown, dominated by the majestic 13th century Gothic cathedral. The cathedral offers 750 years of history including Britain's tallest spire, the world's best preserved original Magna Carta, and Europe's oldest working clock. The surrounding cathedral close, full of architectural gems, is bordered by the River Avon and ancient Chilmark stone walls. The city offers historic streets with charming half-timbered buildings, traditional pubs, characterful shops and a twice-weekly market. Or, stroll along the Town Path and take in the awe-inspiring views across the water meadows towards the cathedral. After dark, there's a thriving arts scene, including one of the country's leading repertory theatres, a lively arts centre, cinema and a wealth of independent restaurants. Should you want to explore further afield then a short drive from Salisbury takes you to Stonehenge, the National Trust's Stourhead House and gardens, majestic Wilton House, as well as the New Forest National Park, and the Hampshire and Dorset coasts. There's so much to see and do in Salisbury and surrounding area that your only concern will be finding the time to do it all!
