We had a comfortable week at The BarnIt was equipped with everything we needed.Nice touches like a couple of bottles of beer, a bottle of wine, loaf of lovely bread, real butter, a pod coffee maker and what looked like a gin and tonic.The sofa was really comfortable and the place was decorated nicely. Ideally located for bike rides to the Forest or for Poole and Bournemouth. The washing machine was very handy but there wasn't really the ability to dry stuff outside that we could see.There was a 2 inch step up into the kitchen which could be painful if you forgot about it. The French doors were overlooked by a path to one of the other properties which detracted from our privacy a little bit.The bike store was under a shed roof overhang and was tight for two bikes.Overall we really enjoyed our stay but for the cyclists it may not be perfect, unless you're happy to leave your bikes out overnight

Wonderful location and property - all that you want for a relaxing stay. The added touch of provisions on arrival much appreciated and shows that extra level of thought for guests. Will recommend to family and friends.

A well equipped, comfortable base for exploring the New Forest. Lots of nice touches, such as diffusers, hand wash etc plus bread, butter, milk, biscuits and even a G&T!A 15 minute walk into Burley, which has the basics and several cafes and pubs. Lots of local walks close by.Very good communication from Rachel.
