The details
Nestled in the heart of a picturesque Wiltshire village, The Apple House offers panoramic views of the surrounding countryside and is conveniently close to the historic market town of Salisbury and the World Heritage site at Stonehenge. This award-winning, newly built home is designed to echo the apple barn that once stood on the site, featuring wood cladding and black corrugated steel that perfectly blends a contemporary aesthetic with warm, old-fashioned comfort.
Decades ago, this property was a stable, later used to house livestock and then filled with junk before Clare and Barnaby, the current owners, bought it. With admirable vision, they've transformed the derelict stable into a stunning timber-clad structure with a soaring pitched roof and a contemporary wing of black corrugated steel housing two bedrooms.
The Apple House is now a stunning home with stylish fabrics and antique furnishings throughout as well as luxury touches like roll-top baths and underfloor heating.
The L-shaped Apple House boasts a generous modern living space with beautiful pale oak floors throughout. The kitchen, equipped with a range, island, dining table and a sofa with a widescreen TV, is perfect for entertaining or simply unwinding from the stresses of modern urban life. Budding chefs will find meal prep a breeze and you can perch up on the island keeping them company whilst sharing a bottle of wine as they chop away. Full-length windows and doors downstairs flood the space with light and open onto a south-facing terrace with sweeping views of the Nadder Valley and the 'Shaftesbury Drove'.
Wander down the reclaimed brick hallway and you’ll reach the a pantry and a handy boot room for storing muddy boots after a long walk in the countryside.
When bedtime beckons, the main bedroom features a luxurious four-poster bed, an ensuite dressing room and a bathroom with an old-style roll-top bath and walk-in shower. An upstairs bedroom also includes a roll-top bath offering another opportunity for a deluxe soak, and the owners can arrange for a child’s bed (up to 10 years old) to be assembled here.
The Apple House is an excellent base for exploring the many attractions Wiltshire has to offer. Shaftesbury, a 20-minute drive away, provides a quieter alternative to Salisbury and is home to 'Gold Hill', famous from the Hovis adverts. The neighbourhood boasts several excellent pubs, including the renowned Beckford Arms in Tisbury.

We had the most incredible stay at Clare’s home; it is completely idyllic and the perfect spot for a relaxing stay near Salisbury. The decor is so tasteful and well curated; and the peace and quiet is like nothing else. A stay made even better by cooling off in the freshwater pond which the kids adored. Than you Clare- we’ll be back!

We absolutely loved our stay at The Apple House. The house is gorgeous — beautifully finished with so much attention to detail, and the fresh cut flowers everywhere were such a lovely touch. It’s perfect for families, our kids had the best time and it felt so relaxed and comfortable. The hosts were amazing — so welcoming and thoughtful, we really couldn’t have asked for more. Everything about it was just lovely. We didn’t want to leave and would come back in a heartbeat!
