Overall a really lovely stay. Fantastic walks straight from the barn. Elliots chippy nice. Lovely dog friendly pubs close by. The Star definitely our favourite for food. Booking recommended. Barn really comfortable but stairs are not great if you are a little unsteady. They are wooden with no rail on the left hand side going up. Really clean with everything you need. Bed very comfortable and a good size. Coop close by and well stocked for anything you may need.
