Caroline
We were met by the owner who showed us around which was helpful. The barn is a fabulous space, open plan kitchen, dining, living, great for our group, very comfortable, massive tv & we all loved the cozy media wall fireplace. The barn is very well equipped, the owners have thought of everything you might need during your stay. Beds were super comfy, crisp white bedding & the fluffiest towels. Fabulous hot tub, very private overlooking fields & we were lucky to see the Aurora Borealis. We loved it so much we booked for next year & we canât wait.

Plenty of space for six people to spread out. The large lounge area with giant TV screen and comfy sofa made for a cosy night in when the rain was pouring down outside. During the day it was so nice to sit on the large decking areea for brunch, enjoying the stillness of the surrounding countryside, followed by a dip in the hot tub. We really didn't want to leave.

There was more than enough space for 8 adults and we found plenty of things to do in the area. The property was immaculate and very well equipped with all we could possibly need. The hot tub was a welcome addition, especially after a day of cycling. The owners are just next door but we had no need to contact them.
