The host was really welcoming and attentive. The Barn was stunning, well maintained and accurately described on the website. Itâs really well kitted out, with very comfortable beds and everything you need in the kitchen. The hot tub was great and the grounds were lovely, great place to stay with dogs.

The beds were very comfy with good quality linen. The paddock area for the dogs to run free was great! Itâs an ideal place to get away from it all, but a car is definitely needed as the coast etc are at least an hour away as are most places of interest. Hosts were very helpful & obliging & made us feel very welcome during our stay
