Lovely spacious converted barn
5 adults and 2 dogs stayed for a week, very comfortable place in a beautiful area close to many beaches, coastal walks and places to eat. The barn has a good kitchen so preparing our own meals was also easy. Good welcome pack on arrival

Great base from which to explore
You definitely need what3words to find it! But loved the fact it's down single track roads with grass growing up the middle - very out of the way. A lovely barn conversion, well equipped apart from a dishwasher, and a thoughtful welcome pack. The twin bedroom did have some unknown bugs (to us) on the bed linen, but this was dealt with swiftly with comforting assurances that this was normal for a natural stone walled home. The ping pong table in the outside building was fun. Plenty of room for parking, behind gates. Wifi password didn't match with guest information, but we figured it out. Overall a comfortable stay that I would be happy to recommend.
