The barn had everything we needed, certainly a well stocked kitchen. We cook at all places we stay due to intolerances I have. Barn was lovely inside. Perfection location for walks and walking into Bibury. There were a couple of downsides, especially the WiFi when my husband needed to do some work and our phone connection was dreadful, even the TV gave up on us so we read our books. The beds, I don’t usually get affected but we moved from the main bedroom the first night into the spare bedroom. Both incredibly uncomfortable. Such a shame. Both of us ended up with backaches. We couldn’t wait for our own bed. As we had perfect weather, it was a shame the garden furniture hadn’t been cleaned from the lichen and bird poop. We had a lovely bank holiday break and crammed as much as we could in. The highlight was trout fishing at Bibury. If you like trout, worth a go.
