    We had a wonderful stay at Jemima Barn, it was really well appointed, immaculate and very clean. Great venue for a stop over on the way to Cornwall. The kids absolutely loved the super friendly cats and the hosts were very helpful.

    Our stay was truly enjoyable! Although the description noted two beds, the owners thoughtfully provided a full bed for our second child, which was a delightful surprise and much appreciated. The mattresses and bedding were incredibly comfortable,...
