Really lovely and welcoming owner. You could tell they had really thought about the whole place well and had games and books etc for all aged children which was brilliant. The only thing that could have been improved was having the garden attached to the property but it was only a small thing. Would definitely recommend.

Beautiful spot, lovely property and Sheila so helpful and generous. Was perfect for our two families - location required a bit of travel to spots to visit like Bude, Clovelly, The Hidden Valley and Westward Ho! But it was a lovely place to return to, lots of games played and tea drunk. Kids had a fab time too and wish we'd made more use of the gameRead mores barn! Hide
