We have stopped in a lot of similar style properties whilst exploring the UK with the kids and this barn tops the lot. It was clean and well equipped but it was all the extra thoughtful touchâs that made it stand out. The beautiful garden and its birds were accompanied by binoculars and a bird book, national trust handbook, tea on arrival and bubble bath. Glyn was a star and by reading the guest book it was clear we werenât the only one that thought this. With easy access to lots of places it was the perfect base for our half term adventure.

Excellent location, would recommend the Sunday lunch at the wharf pub just a short drive away. Very clean and well equipped with everything you need. Lovely and quiet with beautiful views of the garden and countryside. The scones and jams were a very welcoming treat.

Welcoming afternoon tea of scones and homemade cakes provided by the host, Glyn was delicious. Glyn is extremely informative and helpful. It is our second visit and hope to visit again next year.
