Despite having very poor weather we found the surrounding countryside beautiful and so green. Peacock Barns is so peaceful and quiet with views over the lake. We liked the fact that you walk to a really good local pub serving good food. The accommodation was spotlessly clean and comfortable. Very well equipped although we didn’t cook much.
