Guests that stayed at this property said
Reviewers consistently mention the property's spotless condition, indicating a very high standard of cleanliness that contributes significantly to guest satisfaction.
The property is appreciated for its peaceful rural setting and convenience for walking and visiting local sites, though there is a mention of preferring a unit with a better view, slightly affecting the score.
Guests find the cottage comfortable, with special mentions of quality bed linen and a cosy environment, although one comment about limited space for working slightly impacts the score.
The Apple Barn is well-appointed with excellent Wi-Fi and attention to detail in its facilities. A request for more information on waste disposal suggests room for minor improvements.
The hosts' thoughtfulness is highlighted by personal touches like a lemon drizzle cake on arrival. While these gestures are greatly appreciated, it's politely noted that such gifts, though delightful, are not guaranteed.

Clean, well appointed, comfy, cosy and warm (during our winter stay) The host Elaine welcomed us and kindly left milk and cake for our arrival. It is in a good location for a number of interesting towns and ideal for hiking. We would definitely recommended it.

So much thought had gone into making a lovely little holiday home. It was so clean and had everything we needed. There is so much to do in the area and we were so lucky to get such gorgeous weather. The owner Elaine was kind to let us use their beautiful garden. She gave us a lovely cake and some fresh plums from a tree close by. Everything was just perfect and we hope to come again.

The cottage was so clean and comfortable and had everything we needed. The owner was very friendly and welcoming. The farm is in a peaceful rural location and we did several walks from the door. We also visited two National Trust properties (Canons Ashby and Stowe Gardens).
