Spotlessly clean and well appointed. Grandchildren loved the pool table and the hotub was lovely. Would definitely recommend and would love another holiday at this property.

We are a family of six adults and we never felt as though we were on top of each other. We require liked the open plan design upstairs and of course the pool table was a big hit. The barn was well equipped and everything was clean, fresh and comfortable. Thoughtful welcome gift of milk, butter, bread and cake. The only thing that would have been helpful is a larger fridge to accommodate the size of the property and more than 6 of each cutlery and crockery item. We loved our stay in the Barn.
