Tucked into the rolling countryside just beyond Thornbury, Rockhampton is one of South Gloucestershire’s best kept secrets — an unspoilt enclave where open farmland, heritage homes and far-reaching views create a sense of calm that feels increasingly like a luxury. With a close-knit population of little more than 160 residents, life here unfolds at a more considered pace. From the sound of leather on willow at one of Rockhampton’s two historic cricket clubs to weekend rugby fixtures bringing the community together, the village has a gentle social rhythm rooted in tradition and community spirit. This is countryside living at its best — where cars slow for ducks crossing the lane, neighbours are known by name, and open green spaces create a feeling of privacy and quiet refinement that is increasingly hard to find. Yet despite its deeply rural setting, Rockhampton remains remarkably connected. Thornbury is just a short drive away, while Bristol, Gloucester and the wider region are easily reached via excellent motorway links, offering that rare balance of seclusion and commuter convenience. A place where homes are not overlooked, gardens become part of daily life, and the pace of living feels intentionally calmer. Introducing The Cider Barn — a home perfectly suited to its surroundings, offering the opportunity to embrace the charm, character and understated luxury of village life in one of the region’s most desirable hidden corners.

Directions

Heading north out of Thornbury take the left-hand turning signposted Rockhampton. Follow the lane, passing Thornbury Rugby Club on your right hand side and, a little later, the original cricket pitch and pavilion. Take the next turning right into Sundayshill Lane. The entrance to The Cider Barn is just a short way up on the right hand side and is shared with two other dwellings, Gully Farm and The Hay Barn.

Area Description

Offered with no onward chain, ‘The Cider Barn’ is a stunning conversion with character and style in abundance. It is secreted away in countryside to the north of the market town of Thornbury, with grounds extending to circa 1.28 acres, It is tucked away off a leafy country lane, over the hillside to the east of M5 J14 in the Berkeley Vale, sharing a private driveway with two other rural dwellings all surrounded by open fields. The barn offers expansive living space, with multiple options for bedrooms and home-working – plenty of room for a busy family to spread out and enjoy their interests, inside and out. The bespoke hand-made kitchen/dining room, with 'Aga', runs front to rear, with doors at each end opening onto outdoor seating areas with country views. The superb main living space is vaulted and again is dual-aspect - with French doors, a wood-burning stove and a split-level 'snug' for relaxing in front of a movie. There is also a separate family room, again with doors to the garden – fantastic space for entertaining family and friends. Twin staircases allow for internal separation, plus there is a detached 'annexe' across the shared driveway – this comprises covered parking, workshop space, a shower room and an additional games/studio room above. Bedroom numbers depend upon on your preferred combination - a minimum of four, plus two en-suite shower rooms and the fabulous family bathroom. The gardens are a delight and include an al-fresco dining area featuring the original stone cobble circle once used in cider production. Sweeping lawns stretch down to a gap in the mature hedgerow leading to the modern wooden barn and the field just beyond. Country walks start at the end of the driveway, with many rural rambles just waiting to be discovered. A unique and very special home!
