A third bedroom is located just inside the entrance, with a double bed and en-suite. The garden area is a private enclosed area partially lawned, including a patio area with comfortable wicker effect furniture, ideal for outdoor relaxation. The owners of the property are currently in the process of opening their own shop for selling local goods, but the barn is just a few streets from the village of Evercreech, where you can find all your essential amenities.

    In the kitchen the oven needed a deep clean. Also the sink and cup drawer were grimy. The en-suites had lime encrusted shower heads and rims on the doors. The shower hose was coated with black mould. New toilet brushes and replacement toilet seats wouldn’t go amiss. A real shame as we won’t return.

  • Claire

    Peaceful surroundings and close proximity to all attractions. Two elements that a little disappointing. The first night we was there it was absolutely freezing the heating had not been turned up and it took a 24 hours before it was comfortable temperature which is not ideal with small children. The second is none of the showers were hot just lukewarm.

  • Jonathan

    Apart from that it was all very comfortable and clean with everything we needed- although the shower head in the main bathroom needs a clean. The temperature of the hot water needs increasing as it was only ever warm and subsequently one bath emptied the tank as no cold water could be added. The underfloor heating was very efficient. I would have no hesitation in staying again and hope to do so.
