Cows you say ?
Would do storage along the back wall in the bedrooms.
Velux in every bay east facing - morning sun - west facing glass/doors to the courtyard for afternooon. Open them all up to get epic cross ventilation.And yes - cooker extract through roof -doable - the longer the extract the more power you need

Ha! Your drawing is almost exactly how it was used in the past, it was the rearing shed, so if you threw a calf next to each cow then it is spot on. It was not a fun job to shovel the majority of the shit out, it was just abandoned 50 years ago with everything left.
Yes, was thinking a combo of velux and glass doors should make it feel quite airy and light, especially if we do semi vaulted ceilings as well.

There is for sure. I mean the barn is still full of old straw and cow shit, so that might help!
Given that we have no neighbours, and we aren't proposing to change roof height, footprint or external cladding, I'm hoping that we shouldn't have any issues just getting a standard planning application through. The only thing they seem to get iffy about here is the roof covering changing, but we are actually reinstating the original roof covering, so hopefully that shouldn't be an issue (father in law is on the local council, so is pretty good at knowing what will and won't pass!)
