Having stayed in property 1 twice before we finally got to stay in property 4. Absolutely stunning property which is so well equipped. Comfy and incredibly clean. The owners are on site and are really lovely. Wouldn't hesitate to book again.

A return visit to 4 Rew Farm Barns and a friendly welcome awaited us.A thoughtful tray of welcome goodies were left for us on arrival. This is a really lovely property, well furnished, spotlessly clean with everything you could want. Perfect for larger gatherings or multi generational holidays like us. We particularly enjoyed the views of the countryside from the garden and the beautiful weather this year. Highly recommend.
