Restoration of an 16C farmstead in Dartmoor National park by two architects with works including the sensitive renovation and contemporary extension of the historic farmhouse and conversion of two barns to create modern rustic holiday homes. Unique interior features abound, with bed nooks and secret windows, vintage furnishings and lofty double height spaces.
