Lympscott Barn was everything we could have dreamed of. The owners were welcoming, friendly and helpful. The barn was well equipped for the 13 members of our family who were with us - ranging from 81 down to 12. We loved Sandymouth Beach 20 minutes drive away and enjoyed walking on the coast path. The games room, lawn area for badminton cricket etcRead more and the hot tub were all perfect. I highly recommend this property. Hide
