Very spacious accommodation. It was lovely having the log burner - just remember to bring logs with you. The barn felt like a destination, not just somewhere to sleep at night.
It is managed through Fresh Escapes, so be prepared to receive lot's of advertising emails. There was a problem with the hot water, but if they sort that out it would be a 9 out of 10 property.

Das Haus ist viel größer als man sich das vielleicht vorstellt, in dem riesigen Wohnzimmer kann man sich leicht etwas verloren fühlen, wenn man nicht mit einer großen Familie reist. Toll war aber die riesige DVD-Sammlung, die meine Töchter ausgiebig genützt haben. Die vielen Gesellschaftsspiele auszuprobieren, hatten wir leider keine Zeit. Im Sommer wäre es sicher auch schön gewesen, den großen Garten zu nützen! Die Küche ist toll ausgestattet, mit extrem viel Zubehör. Es gibt einen Kaminofen und Brennholz im Garten, aber gleichzeitig ein ausdrückliches Verbot, offenes Feuer zu benutzen, daher haben wir uns nicht getraut, den Kamin anzumachen. Das war echt schade... Die Schlafzimmer sind auch sehr geräumig, vor allem das mit dem Doppelbett, aber wir haben dieses Zimmer tatsächlich unseren Töchtern überlassen, die sich über das SEHR hohe Bett sehr gefreut haben, mir erschien dies eher angsteinflößend. Ein normales Bett wäre mir hier lieber gewesen. Wir haben digital einen Guide bekommen, was wie zu machen ist und rechtzeitig den Code für das Schlüsselschließfach, das hat sehr gut geklappt. Vielleicht wäre eine bessere Wegbeschreibung hilfreich, wir standen nämlich zuerst im Hof der Nachbarn, wohin einen google führt, wenn man die Adresse eingibt. Insgesamt eine sehr schönes Haus in einem Top-Zustand und mit Keksen und Kaffee/Tee als Willkommensgeschenk.
Ich habe schon im Oktober gebucht für Februar und bin seitdem überschüttet worden mit Erinnerungsmails und Werbung für andere Häuser, die die Agentur betreut, darauf hätte ich gerne verzichtet, ich fand dies eher nervig. Schade auch, dass die Anwendung des Kamins nicht klar kommuniziert worden ist. Insgesamt tut dies aber unserem sehr schönen Aufenthalt dort keinen Abbruch! Ich würde das Haus wieder buchen!

interesting period decoration, it was well appointed, the kitchen was nice and warm when you walked in because of the Rayburn, good kitchen and dinning area, plenty of seating, good bathroom facilities and bedrooms were nice, especially the master, the beds like something from game of thrones, it was dog friendly, most of all i would stay again and you cant say better than that.
The fire didn't have any logs available, i didn't see any for sale locally either, i couldn't get the lounge hot enough so it was a little cooler than i would have liked. the TV remote was a challenge, the steps outside were edged with sleepers and they were a little slippery, the parking area vegetation could have done with a trim to help backing in or out, especially when wet and dark with dirty mirrors and cameras in the vehicle.

We like having so much space - a good-sized bedroom each and our own bathroom. We can also spread ourselves out
on a comfortable settee each in the living room and still have a settee left over for sitting together. The bedrooms are also very comfortable; I particularly like the four poster bed. The standard of fixtures and fittings throughout is very good.
I enjoyed spending time in the large kitchen which has a good range of pots and pans and various utensils. The heating system is efficient and gets the place nice and warm and there's always plenty of hot water.
There is a good-sized, very attractive garden which we enjoyed sitting in - but you can hear traffic even though there is a good amount of hedging between the property and the road.
The information booklet which is sent to you electronically details everything you need to know for your stay.
There is so much which is right about the property that it seems a bit mean -spirited to mention that the bedroom lamp
in the bedroom with the four poster bed still didn't work (it didn't work when we stayed in June)' Also not all the lights in the kitchen were working.
The windows could have done with a good clean which really showed up on sunny days.
A dishcloth and/or kitchen roll would help with keeping the kitchen neat and tidy.
And we missed the welcome basket which was there waiting for us on our previous two occasions; it was still there, by the window in the kitchen, but empty!
