Perfect quiet little getaway with lovely private garden, in easy reach of local shops & beach, and just off a main A road so the whole county is very accessible. We've stayed several years in a row because it suits us perfectly.

I had a lovely week staying at Well Barn. Nigel was very welcoming and helpful. The Barn has been beautifully converted and is really spacious and comfortable with everything provided that I needed. It was lovely sitting out in the garden and watching the swallows. The location was ideal for me too, with good access to the coast. Excellent recommendations given by the hosts for places to eat and visit.
