Rob
My wife and I have just come back from a week in Curlew Barn, sharing with friends. The barn is in a beautiful and peaceful part of Lincolnshire, a short walk from the River Nene and some wonderful countryside. The accomodation has been designed really well and was perfect for relaxing with friends. There are signs of wear and tear throughout the cottage, but these didn't detract from an enjoyable stay. Robert, the owner, was very approachable and responded promptly to one of the things which we brought to his attention. We would recommend Curlew Barn for anyone looking for a peaceful place to relax and explore.
