We loved staying at Mow Barton for our girls weekend away. The property is beautifully furnished and the central living area was perfect for our group. There are a number of properties at this tranquil location although, when we stayed at the end of April, there was very little noise. We enjoyed using the pool, gym and tennis court. Would happily return.
