  Owl's Hoot and all of the other barn conversions have been beautifully designed.

  The location is lovely, very quiet & peaceful with lots of amenities a short drive away. The layout of the barn was good, small but still a perfect size for the two of us and our little Frenchie. Lots of stylish furniture, however it was a little uncomfortable, especially the bed; we both found the mattress extremely firm and the pillows completely lacking in substance, and struggled to sleep throughout the stay (a week) . The hot tub was lovely and the outside space beautifully put together, however it lacked privacy as the private/sectioned off areas are still quite open to the rest of the properties. Also, Owl's Hoot seems to have a lot less outdoor furniture (a single small bench) compared to the other properties, meaning it wasn't very desirable to sit outside and enjoy the surroundings, some chairs might be a good addition. One major downside for us was that there was no enclosed space for us to let our dog off of his lead; so he had to be in his harness whenever we needed to take him out. I think each property would benefit from it's own sectioned off space for greater comfort for dogs and additional peace of mind for their owners, as the thought of our dog escaping did weigh heavily on us for the duration of the stay, which caused stress. The gravel was also quite sharp for our dog's paws and he didn't like walking on it. There were also no designated dog waste bins and no recycling on site which surprised us. No water bowls for our dog either in the barn, which we have normally found when taking him away with us. The kitchen was well equipped, definitely one of the best holiday rental kitchens we have ever used, with good quality kitchen knives and other utensils and top spec appliances, all set into a beautiful worktop and cabinets. It would benefit for additional crockery and cutlery as we found ourselves constantly running out and washing up, and rarely had enough to fill the dishwasher, which felt wasteful. The bathroom was really nice and the shower was brilliant, great water pressure and nice and big. That room could benefit from a bit of additional storage, such as a unit in the shower and a shelf in the bathroom as there wasn't really anywhere for toiletries to be stored. Overall, we enjoyed our week at Owl's Hoot and would consider returning, however we would not bring our dog back as it is currently, and would be very conscious about the bed and how we slept.

  I’m going to talk about the only negative first and the only reason I gave it 4 stars because I just don’t want another dog to go through that.

  I’m going to start by saying the negative isn’t anything the owners can control, and they were lovely when we mentioned it however I’d like to have known beforehand maybe in the listing or something so we could have made an informed decision. We were there nearly 7 days, and throughout this time, there was always really loud bangs that sounds almost like a single firework going off but intermittently throughout the whole day. Starts really early at 7am which is annoying but most importantly, ruined the experience for our dog. He was very scared of the loud bangs, affected whether he wanted to go out toilet (or anywhere really) or not, because as soon as he heard those bangs, he wanted to rush back in and hide. It wasn’t very pleasant to watch. So if you have dogs that are nervous, hate loud firework type bangs, then I would recommend leaving them at home. More confident dogs may be ok with it. But you know your dog best. The property in general was amazing! Well worth the money. You would think because it’s in a secluded area that there wouldn’t be a lot to do, but there are! Parks, beaches, etc. A lot of thought had been put into making your experience comfortable down to having a washing machine. There’s a little folder telling you where all the nice spots are, where to eat, takeaway menu etc, it genuinely is really well thought out. The apartments are stylish, comfortable and just the best place we’ve stayed at. The owners are really lovely and will sort out anything you need asap as long as you inform them. We absolutely loved the stay ourselves, just a real shame our dog couldn’t have the same experience due to the loud bangs. I will highly recommend that if the bangs are an everyday thing, that the info should be included in the listing so people can make an informed decision. Overall, this is a place I will highly recommend you stay at.

  This was our first experience of a cottage holiday so we didn't quite know what to expect or what to take with us.

  Well we needn't have worried as this homely , spotless Bungalow had everything we needed. Very private down a long sheltered wooded driveway, plenty of room for parking. If your looking for peace other than bird song and relaxation then this gorgeous holiday home is spot on! The little village of Withernwick was a quiet and friendly place to stay. We visited Hornsea several times which has all you need for good shopping and stocking up on fresh food, there's a great Coop in the town and a Tesco with lots of parking. Hornsea has many little cafes and places to eat and drink outside. We thoroughly enjoyed our holiday at Church View and felt sad to leave. It's a beautiful bungalow thoughtfully and tastefully decorated and a much appreciated welcome pack to greet you on arrival, including, Bread, milk, wine, plenty of tea, coffee, biscuits, toilet rolls, hand wash, salt and pepper, dishwasher tabs, washing up liquid and various other items. Plenty of fluffy soft white towels, and beautiful fresh flowers in the comfortable dining room. Thank you for making us feel so welcome. The week we stayed was the hottest of the year but the bungalow remained cool and we couldn't wait to return each day, perfect. We would love to come back very soon.

  The property was absolutely stunning!

  The spec was modern and to a high standard, yet had a warm, homely country vibe. We took our 1year old Labrador, who was living his best life (it was his first holiday and he is sulking being back home!) There was plenty of field space for him to run around on (even after having long walks around the local trails and the beach!! He still loved the field on the back! It was also a gorgeous view when having that first morning coffee!) The only thing I would’ve liked, is a closed off space for the dog…not everyone staying at the barns wants to be approached by a dog, so I was always cautious when he was out. However, there were no issues, the space was great (we did bring the dog’s crate, which he went in so that we could enjoy the wonderful hot tub!) plus all the others guests were friendly and I appreciate how beautiful the courtyard is, so closing off areas might lose that look they are going for. The barn itself was very clean, as were the areas around the barns, it was beautifully peaceful and it was the absolute half term break I was needing! We would definitely recommend, with every penny, and we will definitely return in the future!
