Barmoor – a place of nourishment; spiritual, physical and emotional.
A place which touches a great number of people.
Barmoor was built in 1908 in the Arts and Crafts style as a family home.
It has been maintained to preserve that ambience, while we now have some conveniences of modern life.
​
In the experience of many users of Barmoor, the shared activities of daily life such as food preparation, washing up and cleaning are a memorable element of their visit, that contributes to their group cohesion.
