    It was amazing: clean, spacious, comfortable, luxurious...what more can I say! They even provided dishwasher salt and rinse aid, that is a first for us, we always take our own. They have thought of every single thing you could possibly ask for. Brilliant

    The Barn is a fantastic restoration, comfortable, clean, bright and well equipped. You welcomed us to what was a very relaxing stay. Your donkeys were a bonus and Ceva enjoyed them. I'll try to send you a video on whattsapp. Beat of luck for the coming season(s) and we will pass on your details to friends and family. Best regards Eugene Ann & Ceva.
