Mrs Goodfellow
The accommodation was absolutely 5* in every way. A wonderful place to rest and relax or work with excellent WiFi. The owner, have thought of every last detail to ensure the comfort of their guests. From fresh milk in the fridge, to sumptuous gowns for the few steps out to the hot-tub which overlooks rolling countryside. The garden was also perfect for our 2 dogs being completely secure with grass and several patio areas. If you want to head out and about there is much to do and local sights to see. We could not recommend this accommodation more and will be booking again.

Fantastic accommodation in a delightful setting. The barn has been thoughtfully renovated, providing comfort in abundance whilst keeping elements of individuality and charm. The owners have created a super place to enjoy. We certainly felt that our break delivered just what we needed from our stay here.

Woodside Barn is absolutely stunning! have thought of everything. Stylish, comfortable and extremely well equipped and such a warm welcome with beautiful touches for when you arrive. was very responsive to our messages and when we requested extra wood it was dropped down in no time. The area is beautiful and so many places to visit. The coast is stunning! We would happily come again and didn’t want to leave!
