A nice cottage in quiet country lane, went to the local pub nothing special but went to The Bell Inn just 2 miles away just amazing great choice of drinks and food to die for. Only draw back is to many lanes in that area to get to places a shame but we did enjoy our stay

Lovely little barn conversion, ideal for two people (and a small dog). EV charger excellent addition. Only real downside was a combination of the thin wall to the next cottage (kitchen I assume) and some noisy neighbours.

A lovely little holiday home. Perfect for 2 (and a dog). Its small but perfect when youre out and about enjoying the local towns and sights. Also a lovely and cool building when it was hot! Its a great location around 30-40 to beaches. Owners are lovely. Not much storage for clothes and shoes so be wary. Just a small clothes rail by the front door.Read more The rooms and ceilings were very dusty and outdoor furniture could do with a good clean. Well setup for dogs. Overall loved our hols!! Hide

What a beautiful little get away. Us and our two dogs loved it. The cottage was beautifully kept in a lovely secluded location but easy to find. Lots nearby to enjoy, comfortable, warm and welcoming. The owners were also lovely and ever so helpful. At night you have a beautiful view of the skies and in pin-drop silence. By day the rambling hills anRead mored countryside is a serene spot to lose yourself. We loved every minute of our stay and would definitely go again. Two very happy dogs enjoyed too. Hide

Would 100% recommend this place. We stayed in Butter Barn but either of the barns on-site would be ideal. In beautiful countryside with plenty of public footpaths and lanes to explore when walking the dog

Lovely hosts,made to feel welcome. A little awkward to relax and watch the television whilst your partner is trying to sleep as the television and sofa are in the same room. All that said its in a great location, the farm and the animals are great.Plenty of parking on site.

Weve just come back from our 2nd visit to the Butter Barn with our 2 year old lab and can highly recommend. Its a great base for days out and if your pooch comes back a bit grubby, theres an outside hose just perfect for a clean up operation! As well as our delicious homemade scones, jam and clotted cream there was a Bone Appetite dog bowl, treats Read more+ blanket which was a nice touch. The Butter Barn is very comfortable, cosy + has everything you need for a stress free stay. Hide

Some kind of entertainment system in the kitchen would have been nice. Wifi was poor. It was a tight fit getting in/out of bed due to lack of space. Most of the sockets in the lounge/bedroom are on one side of the room. The fan was welcome. Shower seal was black so could do with replacing. Ceilings are high so a few cobwebs were present.
