We visited as a family of 5 ranging from age 15 to 58 and had the most amazing time. Everything was to hand and we wanted for nothing. The barn is designed to a very high standard, clean and very comfortable. If you are thinking of booking …just do it!We made use of the outdoors as the weather was kind to us, and even managed an 18 mile bike round down the nearby Middlewood Way.
