We were welcomed by Elaine, the owner, and she had supplied refreshments and cake. Ash Barn is very well equipped, modern and clean. We found the bed to be extremely comfortable as was the sofa. Very good Wi-Fi and TV. We were enjoyed sitting outside and our dog loved the large lawned garden. There is no traffic noise, only birdsong to be heard. We had a very happy holiday and would love to stay there again.
