Description Balmy Weather: Radford Semele

While this building was once a barn, it has since been converted into a thoroughly modern home with a long list of luxurious additions to make your stay truly unforgettable.

Aside from the wooden ceiling beams, you would hardly be able to work out this home's former life if you didn't already know. The colour palette leans heavily upon sleek muted greys, all illuminated by subtle spotlighting, while the kitchen has bountiful amounts of surface space for whipping up country feasts.

Out through the back door, there's a private garden with seating so you can enjoy bursts of sunshine, as well as a hot tub that's ideal whatever the weather. At the end of this space is a garage that has also been converted and packed full of gym equipment.

The home sits on the Fosse Way — a 230-mile Roman Road — and there are plenty of walking routes that go through the Warwickshire countryside which start nearby. The Regency architecture of Royal Leamington Spa takes just over five minutes to reach in the car, while the Bard's birthplace, Stratford-Upon-Avon, is a twenty-five-minute drive.

Home truths:
*The home sits on a main road and although there's sound boarding and secondary glazing, it's possible to hear cars
*There's free parking available on the premises
*A travel cot can be provided if required
*Guests can't use the hot tub after 9pm
