We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at the Priory Barn, in spite of the UK October half term weather! We received a warm welcome from Liz. The cottage is very well appointed, with lots of thoughtful touches - things like a proper mattress for the travel cot, and a kitchen with everything one might need. Our children enjoyed seeing the animals, including the "guard geese". Would recommend!
