A thoughtful welcome pack of wine & assortment of snacks & dips on table. A dog bowl, towel and blanket inside door. Owner extremely helpful & pleasant but not intrusive. A field, which had a circulate pathway cut through the long grass, immediately behind barn for walking dog. Plenty of pleasant rural walks available from the property or within short drive. Would recommend. Would gladly return.

The property is laid out just as we would have done if we had owned it,the open plan living area is comfortable and warm and the kitchen area is well laid out and furnished with lots of cooking pots and pans and the utensils are plentiful and spotless. The bedrooms are spacious and we'll furnished with lots of wardrobe space and comfortable beds,the toilet and shower room is modern and even though we are bath people we found the shower was great. Outside the small garden was enough and the constant supply of bird good ensured an abundance of birds. The owners were very welcoming and were keen to ensure our stay was pleasant. As and when we return to revisit the area we shall look to see if Little Barn is available.
