    Great location, only 2 1/2 miles from my family. Excellent garden for my 2 big dogs. Very clean and well maintained and for me, it dealt with my favourite peave, about rentals. It had a selection of really sharp knives in the kitchen, for cutting...

    Apple Barrel Barn is in a remote location in beautiful surroundings. A homely house with comfortable beds and sitting room. Fresh flowers and home made cake was a welcoming touch.

    Location was stunning, peaceful. Cottage is too an outstanding level. Absolutely worth the money to stay and will be coming back. 11/10. The underfloor heating was a beautiful touch, as was the cake :)
