South Barn, Somerton Farm – A Sustainable Barn Conversion Near Cowes, Isle of Wight  
South Barn is a stylish, single-storey three-bedroom barn conversion near Cowes, set within the peaceful surroundings of Somerton Farm on the Isle of Wight. Blending contemporary design with rustic charm, this spacious rural retreat sleeps up to 6 guests and is ideal for families, friends, or small groups seeking space, comfort, and a more sustainable way to holiday.  
With far-reaching farmland views across the Medina valley, private outdoor space, and easy access to Cowes and the wider island, South Barn offers a calm countryside escape without feeling remote.  
  
Spacious, Single-Level Living with Countryside Views  
Designed entirely on one level, South Barn is bright, airy, and thoughtfully laid out for relaxed group living. The heart of the home is the generous open-plan living, dining, and kitchen area, where large windows frame open farmland views and natural light floods the space.  
The modern kitchen is fully equipped for easy self-catering and includes:  
• Induction hob and oven  
• Ample worktop space  
• Large dining table for shared meals  
• Separate utility room with fridge freezer  
This flexible, uncluttered layout makes South Barn equally suited to laid-back holidays, remote working breaks, or longer countryside stays. Please note: there is no TV, encouraging guests to truly switch off and enjoy the peaceful surroundings.  
  
Comfortable Bedrooms & Modern Bathrooms
