We had an absolutely wonderful early Spring stay at The Tractor Barn. It is beautifully presented, thoughtfully decorated and the views are absolutely incredible! Sarah and Andrew were so kind and offered recommendations for the local area. There is plenty to see and do in the local area and countryside walks right from the doorstep. We hope to return!

The tractor barn is a very special place and one well absolutely return to. The barn itself is fantastic, every little detail has been thought of, making it a very easy place to stay. The style and finish of the barn is also excellent - lots of very unique touches and it was spotlesly clean. The local reservoir makes for a perfect easy walk and we met lots of friendly locals while out walking. Andrew made us feel very welcome on arrival, with lots of excellent suggestions for the local area and answered all our questions. We were then left to enjoy the space but always had the option to ask for recommendations if we needed. The barn is well positioned with mases to do locally, as well as a little further afield. Weve stayed in many holiday cottages over the years - this really shines, you wont be disappointed!
