My family of 8 adults,1 toddler, 3 babies and 2 dogs stayed in this beautiful barn conversion for a week in June. It is so big and spacious we had room to spread out and didn't get on top of each other at all and with the high ceilings the noise wasn't a problem at all!The facilities are really good and the kitchen is very well equipped. The location is really good, near to pubs and shops and not too far to wonderful beaches.

We had a wonderful stay at the haybarn. Eight adults four children and two dogs. No one was disappointed with the facilities. The children loved the play areas Wendy house table tennis football etc and the added attraction of a hot tub for the adults. The woods beyond the house enabled us to walk the two dogs daily with ease. We will certainly be back to enjoy this lovely holiday let in the future
