This is a special place! Beds were super comfy, even the singles which is very unusual in our experience. Everywhere was spotlessly clean and comfortable. We loved the location, peaceful and private, and especially enjoyed having woodland so close and access to the lovely fields around the barn. We would definitely come again.
