This was our second year at Dodds Barn and could not fault it in any way. The decor, space and amenities are outstanding. Just such an amazing place to chill and hang out with family and friends. Cannot wait to come back again. See my last years review for more detail.

An exceptional property! All bedrooms are en-suite and the facilities within the property are high end. Outside there are multiple seating areas, hot tub and brilliant hot plate barbecue. Location is great, quiet and not overlooked. We were a party of 9 covering 3 generations (some with disabilities) and the property was ideal with easy step free access throughout. I can’t recommend this accommodation enough.

The barn was very comfortable and clean. We appreciated the welcome pack and loved the music system, hot tub and local walks. The size of the barn suited our large group of 9 adults, child and two dogs. On reflection, a larger fridge freezer for the size of the group, and a grassed area for the dogs, would have been the icing on the cake.
