A lovely, comfortable place to stay with gorgeous surrounding countryside. The owners greeted us on arrival and left us some very welcome goodies, for us and our dog. The location was perfect for just a few days of relaxation, with shops close by if needed. 100% recommended.

The Barn was an absolutely super place to stay. We thoroughly enjoyed our week here. The accommodation was immaculate and extremely comfortable. More than dog friendly too. The location was just perfect...a short walk to the local village, but surrounded by countryside. All credit to the lovely owners. Their hard work and kindness made our stay here just perfect.

This is a lovely well planned cottage with everything you and your pets could need for a relaxing break. It is well situated and many beautiful beaches and attractions are within a short walk or drive away. The barn itself, is well equipped and comfortable. It has WIFI and a nice big tv . The bedroom is very comfortable and we slept well. The area is so quiet and peaceful with a dog walk immediately outside the door. The enclosed garden is great for the dogs too, they loved barking and chasing the pigeons that taunted them from the top of the fence. . The owner John was very friendly and gave us a good insight into the area, Theres also lots of information to read inside the barn on what to do and where to go. There was also a fantastic welcome pack for us and the dogs, very thoughtful, thankyou.We had a fantastic restful stay and the dogs also gave it a paws up!Well recommended, we will return if in the area.
