Guests that stayed at this property said
Reviews frequently highlight the property's impeccable cleanliness, with several guests describing it as spotless and well-kept, indicating a high standard of hygiene and maintenance.
The location is celebrated for its peacefulness and beauty, with easy access from London. The rural setting and proximity to nature reserves and local towns are highly valued, despite some remarks about the narrow access lane.
Comfort is well-regarded, with mentions of comfy beds and a cosy wood burner. However, a few guests noted the mattresses could be improved and the space might be tight for four adults, slightly affecting the score.
Facilities are generally praised, especially the well-equipped kitchen and modern furnishings. Some guests felt the kitchen could be better stocked and mentioned slow Wi-Fi, which suggests room for improvement.
Guests are pleased with the thoughtful touches, such as quirky artwork and a welcome hamper. While the hamper is mentioned positively, it is important to note that such amenities are subject to availability and not guaranteed.

The Haybarn was gorgeous, incredibly clean and well kept. Our only 'complaints' would be the lack of food supplied at the property was small, and for such a high price per night it would have been nice to have 40-50 dollars worth of food in the fridge. And also the wifi was incredibly slow (like won't load netflix without 20 minutes of buffering slow) so at night when you want to relax to a movie it was a little frustrating. Overall though the place is gorgeous and so are the nearby towns. Our taxi driver from the area was a long term local and very friendly on the drive back to Heathrow one morning.

Immaculate rental barn in quiet rural setting. Access a little narrow and bumpy but worth the ride. Lots of walks from the barn into the woods and nature reserve nearby. Very comfortable bed and and well-equipped kitchen. A lovely base for visiting Surrey Hills and Sussex. We will come back.
