The furniture and fittings were first class, and immaculately presented. The joinery was first class, as was the location of the barn itself. The "Welcome Pack" was appreciated, although our milk seemed a little "off" The bed is huge so if you are around 6ft tall, you have to be a little wary when getting in/out of bed, because of the sloping roof!!

Really no problems, but the collection of glasses need looking at as there isn’t really any two the same. It was great to be able to open the door and let our dachshund out, he loved it.

This place is wonderful. Peaceful, beautiful area of the country. Could not have wished for more. Was totally perfect for a couple to spend some quality time together.
