We had a great stay at Courtyard Barn. We needed a really quiet place and some peace and tranquility- that is exactly what we got! Such a well thought out place to stay and peace of mind knowing it was completely dog proof- we could let them out knowing they could not escape from the little garden area, and it was well lit at night . We stocked up with food at the local Tesco and stayed put except for a visit to Horsey Gap to see the seals. No need to go off site as it had such beautiful grounds. Perfect.
