We stayed here a few weeks ago and it was absolutely brilliant! Well equipped with everything we needed and lovely little touches like a welcome basket. The host was absolutely fantastic and messaged before hand to give directions and let us know she was contactable. When we had a problem, someone was there within minutes. The property was huge and there was plenty of room for us allMe and my family had a brilliant time there and we can’t wait to come back!There was some lovely walks near by and there was a market on in one of the villages that was lovely also. Thank you, Sarah for being the host with the most!

Very much enjoyed our stay at The Barn, very well equipped and comfortable property within striking distance of most places you would wish to visit in the local area. Spacious and comfortable with very efficient heating for the Autumn and Winter months and an extremely well equipped kitchen with plenty of space for a large family, or even cosy for a couple. I would highly recommend this accommodation for all lengths of stay, and the house manager is very open and accessible should the need arise. Would not hesitate in booking again.

This property was fabulous. Four spacious double bedrooms, three on-suite. Massive kitchen diner, dining room, and large lounge. No expense has been spared renovating the property, with many farming implements on show. We had a very welcome welcome pack too. There are several nice pubs and bars in the local area. Cannot recommend this property highly enough.
