    Owners are friendly and approachable but discreet. A perfect place to get away from the madness of the world, switch off, and enjoy what nature has to offer. Pretty much just the birdsong for company. Barn is superbly equipped and very comfortable. Hot Tub perfectly situated to enjoy the views of the countryside. Recommend to anyone looking to de-stress.

    Great location, slightly remote but short drive to local town. Very peaceful and the hosts made us feel very welcomed. The little treats when we arrived for ourselves and our dog was a lovely little touch. The hot water went during our visit (couldn't not be avoided) but the hosts were super apologetic and sorted it really quickly, even providing a bottle of bubbly which we enjoyed in the hot tub! Highly recommend this stay and would love to revisit
