We absolutely loved our stay at The Granary and would 100% recommend! We have just returned from a four night stay (two families of four) and this place was perfect. The barn conversion is finished to a really high standard and the owners (who are super friendly) have thought of absolutely everything. There were so many little touches that made the week such a lovely place to stay. From beautiful tranquil surrounding where we spotted wildlife from our kitchen window such as hares and a deer to the little things like providing charcoals for a BBQ, a welcome pack on arrival, cleaning products, bin bags and dog treats to name a few! The hot tub was a big hit as were the five Alpacas who loved to come and say hello! A perfect base to explore the surrounding areas.
