A couple bought a crumbling 700-year-old medieval farmstead and turned it into a fairytale retreat where guests can stay in treehouses overlooking the English countryside
. Though they didn't realize it when they purchased the 700-year-old property, it would become a restoration project that would take 20 years to complete.Rainwater running through the roof
Their next priority was to boost the property's spring-water source by creating three boreholes in the grounds and connecting them to a plant room where the water would be filtered and pressurized. They also switched the wood burner out for an underground heating system. The pipes they installed in the fields drew heat from the ground to feed the underfloor heating and radiators in the house and supply hot water.
Thatching the roof proved to be the most time-consuming part of the project; however, the couple didn't think twice about their decision."The roof is your umbrella — it keeps everything warm and dry," Beavan said.
