Inside Roskhill Barn

Following on from the major re-configuring and refurbishment we undertook at Roskhill Barn during the winter of 2014/15, and the final completion of all the internal tweaks, I have been asked by a few people who are unable to actually visit us here, to post some internal photographs of the Barn as it is today.

So here they are - sorry, there's rather a lot of them... Click any one to view as a gallery.

The outer hall - front door on left
Then inner hall - there's a glazed door from the outer hall to this hallway
The kitchen
The kitchen is semi-open plan to the living room - that's the dining table on the left. We created a feature arched opening above the worktops to let extra light through.
This is from the kitchen looking into the living room.
The cosy living room - how many times has Cupar managed to photo-bomb...?
The utility room houses the freezer, washing and drying machines and a large airing cupboard (behind the door)
This window faces you as you come down the stairs.
The stairs from the landing
The landing is lovely, but so difficult to photograph.
There is a glazed door and side-light from the first floor sitting room onto the landing.
The first floor sitting room
Fabulous stained glass panels in the double doors into Sue's 'playroom'
From sitting room to playroom - Sue hasn't properly furnished her room yet, so no photos in there.
Our lovely friend, Rosalind, made this woven hanging for us. It is the view from the Barn. It was the last weaving Rosalind completed, as she tragically passed away a few weeks ago.
Our bedroom is an L-shaped room
Bedroom again...
...and bedroom again!
The first floor bathroom
Back on the ground floor - here is the centre of my universe - my study
My study again
The ground floor bathroom, which is 'ensuite' to my study.

How lovely to have Rosalind's last piece of work to remember her by.

As mentioned before, I was among the last people to stay at Roskhill (you were away, so we didn't meet) in September 2014.

Quite a transformation - but very elegantly done. I recognize the view from the top of the stairs very well, as I couldn't stop taking photos of it when I was there, from outside what was the upstairs door, of course!

You're very lucky to live where you do.

Thank you for your comments Brian. We also photograph our view quite a bit!
