We stayed for May half term and enjoyed good weather. The barn has been beautifully converted with high quality fittings using plenty of stone and wood. It is unbelievably spacious and offers plenty of room for everyone. Our two dogs loved it too and the gated rear garden is very secure. Perfectly located as it’s only a 6 minute walk to The Sloop Inn ( great food) and a few minutes further on is the fantastic beach. Our grand children loved the body boarding there. We all had a lovely holiday in a beautiful house. Guy and Liza who own the barns and live in the adjoining barn were there when we there and were so friendly and helpful, Thank you for the welcome pack! It was much appreciated and we would love to visit again.
