We had a wonderful time at Shepherds Barn. 4 adults and 3 kids, loads of space to relax and a high quality finish to everything throughout the barn, the pictures don't do it justice! Bollington it a ln easy 20 minutes walk away and is a delightful town to visit with plenty of pubs, cafes and restaurants to enjoy. Hannah was really attentive and helpful and made our stay feel extra special, we all had a fantastic long weekend and can't recommend visiting here enough 🤗

Lovely barn, very comfortable and warm. Owners there if you need the, but very discreet. Peaceful surroundings. Local pub a bonus. Canal walks close by. Great place for a family get together, would definitely go again.

The barn was excellent and good value for what you got. There was 5 adults and 3 children under 10, but we had plenty of space, everywhere was clean with plenty of cutlery, pans etc. in the large kitchen which was very modern. Bedrooms were large clean and warm, comfortable mattresses, and overall we were very pleased with the choice of the barn.The adults and especially the children had the use of a pool table, table football and a log fired hot tub outside so everyone was happy.This rental was different from others we have used, and it comes out as good value and highly recommended.
