The bedrooms really let this property down as the kitchen-diner and lounge are both great. Two of the rooms are really better suited to children and feel a bit like poor quality skiing accommodation. The wet room has a great shower but is a difficult space to share with other guests unless they like wet feet/socks/slippers. The heating is generouslRead morey hot and we had to turn the radiators down or off. Lovely location and views with great walks from the front door. Hide

We had a great stay - very clean, and warm. The kitchen is really well equipped with everything you need for a self catering stay. Basics are provided so if you arrive late you have all you need for a cuppa, and the biscuits & wine were a lovely touch.

The first floor with the huge kitchen and living room with 3 windows was absolutely stunning. The barn had everything you could need - it was so well equipped. The table must seat at least 10! There was only 4 of us, but we did lots of eating and game-playing there. We did lots of walking from the barn, but loved coming back and getting cosy.
