Amazing!! We came for a weekend to celebrate our 10th Wedding Anniversary and didn’t want to leave. Middle of nowhere with beautiful scenery! Extremely clean and tidy and we loved the tv in the bedroom. If I had to pick a negative it could be the welcome pack wasn’t what we was expecting.

We had a fabulous stay at The Granary. It was immaculately clean, and beautifully designed - very modern and lots of little extra details made this place even more wonderful. The living space was more than adequate in size, however did get very warm (but this is just personal preference and would not stop us rebooking!). The kitchen was fully equipped, however we did miss having a bigger freezer so we could food shop for the week, however this was not a real issue as we were out and about each day and ate out a lot. The bed was comfortable and having coat-hangers provided was really useful. The bathroom was spotless and the shower was fine. The outside space was lovely and private, the hot tub was a lovely addition which we enjoyed using. The hens visiting us regularly was a lovely treat - they were very friendly and provided great entertainment! The location was brilliant for us - far enough away from the hustle and bustle for dark skies for stargazing, but close enough to have days out in a range of different places.A very peaceful and relaxing stay - exactly what we both needed. Have already recommended to lots of friends and family, and we will definitely be rebooking in the (hopefully) near future. Thank you for a fabulous stay!
