This is a wonderful barn , and I would highly recommend it . Beautiful accommodation , area - everything you could possibly need . Upon arrival a welcome pack or even just a tea bag / coffee sachets and milk - just something as we arrived to nothing The reason I have put location as average is that the road outside was very and had to then shop straight away . It was very busy , think there was a diversion , and that did affect our enjoyment . Stepping out to that was not great . That said, you couldn't hear it in the cottage , main bedroon - and bed was super comfy . Sadly we had to leave early due to a family bereavement , other than the road it was bang on . Hosts were fabulous too , and we would have loved to have stayed . I'm sure once the work is done on the roads around it will be back to peace and quiet . Not within hosts control obviously .
