Guest Experiences " What an absolutely BEAUTY of a place - A truly hidden gem nestled in the countryside - we honestly couldn't have asked for a better stay. The design of the barn conversion is absolutely stunning and really faultless. Bedrooms are cosy and comfortable, kitchen was so well equipped and provided you with what you needed for cooking, bathroom was beautifully clean, living room was cosy; we were going to head out on the Saturday evening but felt so content staying in and relaxing with the fire on, we didn't feel the need to bother. You really feel off grid which is just what we wanted. The owners are lovely, accommodating and responsive! Strong WIFI, good TV & hot showers, just perfect.
