This barn is stunning. Such a beautiful place to stay. The host provided everything you could possibly need. Quirky and so comfy lounge and bedroom. The kitchen had everything provided even a Nija air fryer. Fabulous shower and constant hot water It had a little balcony and secluded little garden with lots of birds and a squirrel! Can't wait to return to enjoy the impressive log burner in the colder months. Definitely recommend it if peace and quiet is on the agenda. Great places to visit and good food restaurants locally A truly beautiful retreat.

An absolutely beautiful barn. Clean, stylishly furnished & comfortable. The barn has everything you need & more and is ideally situated for exploring surrounding areas. There are plenty of good dog walking routes right on the doorstep. Sydney, Martin & Tina are excellent hosts, friendly & knowledgeable about areas to visit. The welcome pack is above & beyond any other we’ve had and much appreciated. Booked up to go back next year
