One word describes our wonderful barn experience..Utopia! Excellent quiet location looking out over fields of sheep. Very attentive hosts there on site if you need them. Log burner was fab during the chilly November nights making for a very cosy experience...in fact so cosy we had to crack open a window on occasion. Kitchen so well equipped it was home from home as owners had thought of everything along with luxury bathrooms. It was spotless ...very tastefully decorated too. Thank you...we will return!

The barn was beautiful and very well equipped. There were even board games provided to play and quite little hamper containing marmalade, biscuits, wine and milk in the fridge. The grounds were not huge but are very pretty.Me and my husband booked for our first family getaway away with our baby and dog. The barn was advertised as pet friendly but once we got there the information provided in the property said that dogs were not allowed on the furniture or upstairs. Our dog has always slept in our bedroom with us in his own bed and there was nothing to stop him going upstairs when we went to bed ourselves. We ended up having to make a gate with the dining room chairs. For us this may have swayed us to book somewhere else if the information was provided. As being in a new place can be confusing for a pet, especially when they are use to doing that stuff at home.The locks on the property were also not the easiest, it could be difficult opening the doors even if unlocked, this was a little worrying if you needed to get out of the building quickly for safety reasons. The entrance gate was also very temperamental. Overall a lovely stay just need to get the entrance gate and door locks working better.

It was my 60th birthday and I wanted to do something special. It was very special. I had my daughter and her boyfriend round and a few friends. My husband and I also had time on our own, to sit and admire the special qualities of the lovingly restored barn.
