Snaptrip says
Brambleberry Barn is highly praised for its stunning, clean, and well-appointed interiors, offering a comfortable and spacious stay. The large, fully enclosed garden and hot tub are particular highlights, alongside the well-equipped kitchen and utility room. While there is a shared driveway, the property provides ample parking and enjoys beautiful views, especially of sunsets. Some minor issues were noted, but overall, guests had wonderful stays and recommend the property.
Guests that stayed at this property said
The property is consistently described as clean, with one review specifically highlighting its 'extra clean' condition, suggesting a high standard of cleanliness throughout.
There is not enough information to accurately score the location as the reviews do not focus on this aspect.
Guests find the property comfortable, with special mentions of the comfortable and clean beds. One guest noted the beds were king-sized rather than super king-sized, which affected their comfort slightly.
The property boasts well-equipped facilities, including a kitchen and utility room. However, the absence of a barbecue and the issue with the shared driveway have led to a slightly lower score.
While the reviews mention thoughtful touches like dog towels and bowls, there is no mention of gifts, so it is not possible to score this category. It should be noted that any gifts provided are not guaranteed.

During our stay we damaged a placemat and two coasters and feel that the cost of £49.00 to replace is excessive especially when we had paid £47.00 insurance at the time of booking.

All the beds were comfortable and clean. The kitchen is extremely well equipped and there is plenty of good seating in the living room. All the rooms garden and hot tub enjoy fantastic views especially of the sunsets. The utility room was very useful with 2 dogs and the dog extras like towels and bowls were lovely. The garden is large and fully enclosed, even for my Yorkshire Terrier. The quality of the fixtures and fittings is plain to see. Our only niggle was the fact that the driveway is shared with the person in the annex, attached to the barn. We had no idea that there was a shared driveway or in fact someone else would be on site and we think Sykes should make that clear when promoting the barn. Although, the information given on Sykes said parking for 3 cars, when we looked at the photos, we realised that we could easily park 4 cars. We were a party of 4 single ladies travelling from different directions and needed the space so this was important to us. However, what we didnât know of course was the fact that the driveway is shared! Luckily, we had small cars so we managed by careful parking but we feel this is an important fact to advertise!
