We had a lovely time and the Barn was stunning. Beds comfortable and excellent quality bedding. All kitchen appliances in excellent condition and didn't need for anything. We work from home, even whilst away and the WiFi signal was a little slow but we managed. Smart TV with Disney and Netflix so plenty to watch.Would return without hesitation. Thank You:0)
