Description

It is a beautiful, old, but recently renovated 6-bedroom luxury villa down in Somogy County, 30-minutes drive from Lake Balaton, just outside of a village called Keleviz.

The romantic guest house's 6 separate bedrooms, 4 of them with en suite bathrooms (3 with showers, 1 with a big tub and hand held shower), spread out over two floors, and the two newly refurbished ground floor rooms has a shared bathroom. This farmhouse combines the luxury of modern living with the allure of old countryside style and architecture. The inside of this 19th century barn has been completely renovated, while the outer structure remains in its original state. The stones were cleaned and the windows renovated, adhering to the original character of a farm building. Great thought was put into the design of The Bat Barn in order to retain its original charm while providing all of the needs of modern day living. This former barn is located nearby to the renovated former country house in which the owners now reside.

Step into the welcoming breakfast room with original beam ceilings (35 m²), a traditional deep-green tiled stove and a long wooden table to seat 10. The caretaker's living quarter and the kitchen is also on this floor but separated from the guest areas. A serving window as well as a door help easier access to anything you may need from the kitchen while enjoying your breakfast, dinner or a glass of delicious wine from the owner's cellar.

The luxury bedrooms with ensuite bathrooms are located on the 2nd and 3rd floor. One of the ground floor rooms is a twin the other is a double room. The 2nd floor rooms have king-size double beds and one of them has a bathroom with the beautiful wooden bathtub. The rooms open from a cozy living room (31 m²) with arm-chairs and sofa. It is very sunlit and airy, also because its ceiling is partially open between the floors and the sun shines through the rooftop windows. The television and DVD set is discreetly placed in an old cupboard here and there is WIFI too.

The 3rd floor rooms in the attic come with a twin bed and a king-size bed, both with showers.

There is a guest bathroom under the staircase going to the 3rd floor with toilet and sink. All decoration and furnishing comes from the owners' collections and are carefully picked to create a cozy and warm atmosphere.

The charming and accommodating multi-lingual owners are decendants of traditional Hungarian families, the estate belonged to the husband's family for centuries before it was confiscated after the 2nd WW. But now it is back to its original owners with the Hunyady-Almasy family. They live in the country house near the Barn and have a small playground next door with a trampoline where they welcome your kids to play. They are wonderful hosts and will happily help you organize many extra services: catering, market shopping, wine tasting in their cellar, the Hunyady Cellar, Bird-watching and nature-tours, (the owner is the president of the regional nature-protection organization), hikes, riding, fishing in the nearby fish-ponds, all allowing you to have a truly relaxing vacation.
