Really enjoyed our stay. Everything you needed was there. Great to unwind. Nice goodies left for us. The hosts kept in touch with us and we're there if we needed them.

We had a lovely week at Antells Barn. The accommodation was perfect for my husband and me, and our dog loved the enclosed garden. The Lardy cake in the Welcome gifts was lovely. Although the weather was rather changeable, we managed to get out and about, and particularly enjoyed being able to find several walks direct from the door. There were plenty of places to visit nearby and we managed to walk all of the North Dorset Trailway - over two days. We hope to be back next year. Thank you

Beautiful barn, great hostsWe had a lovely stay, the barn is well-appointed and spotless, with great attention to detail and excellent hospitality and customer service from the hosts. It’s very peaceful, beautiful location with comfortable beds and lovely bedding. Would recommend navigating by the name of the property as sat nav took us on a magical mystery tour (in spite of finding it first time when we arrived). Would highly recommend, and would love to return.
