We had the most relaxing time at Big Sky Barn. Our host was helpful with local dog friendly beaches, check in was easy and the welcome hamper was lovely and much appreciated. The barn was really peaceful, clean and well equipped, perfect for switching off and great for our rather large greyhound! I have a feeling we'll be back!
