Folley's Barn is a lovely, spacious, airy property, well equipt and in a quiet location but convenient for visiting multiple attractions in the surrounding area. The service from Rural Retreats was excellent - easy booking process, good property information and local recommendations and a bountiful welcome hamper on our arrival (thank you, Robert). Would definitely recommend and certainly hope to return.
