Polmear Barn is spacious and warm, with attentive hosts. Rooms are large and our multi-family break in January 2026 filled it completely! Despite the weather being mostly rain, we managed to get out and about a bit and visited some local spots. Recommended.

Beautifully-presented property in an idyllic location. The house had plenty of space for 8 adults, a teenager and a dog and the kitchen was large and with enough equipment to accommodate our needs. We were there over a cold snap but the under floor heating meant it was cozy and warm all week. Plenty of space for parking including EV charging. We did lots of walking and cycling while we were there too so the bike store was very welcome too.

Perfect size and layout for multi family holidays.We had 4 generations and a lab celebrating Christmas and everyone felt that they had their own space when needed.Fabulous kitchen and dining area that meant the ‘chefs’ could still be involved with the games and conversation whilst cooking a feast.
