We stayed here for my sisters Hen Do, what an amazing find. The place is GORGEOUS! Bedrooms very spacious, smart TVs in every bedroom, waterfall showers, roll top bath, super king sized beds... the epitome of luxury. The owners were fantastic, very easy to get in touch with and very accommodating. The barn itself was stunning, the hot tub outside was huge. We didn't get chance to sample the BBQ due the weather but would love to go back in the summer as the outside space was fab!
There was tea, coffee, milk, prosecco and even a lemon drizzle cake waiting for us on arrival. YUM
I requested, where possible, an early check in and there was no problem with this, I was called as soon as the barn was ready. 3 hours early!
There was ample glasses, cutlery, crockery etc. towels and even robes and slippers for everyone. Oddly though, there were no dishcloths or sponges to wash up with, just several tea towels. Possibly an oversight by the cleaners, but future guests it might be worth taking one. Still, not a problem, we made do and the dishwasher was very handy indeed.
My only slight annoyance was that the jets/bubbles in the hot tub were temperamental, sometimes they worked sometimes they didn't. I fiddled with various nozzles and settings as I was shown but they seemed to have a mind of their own. Furthermore the Bluetooth speaker in the hot tub didn't work, it just wouldn't connect and I am quite tech savvy. Not a problem though, Natalie suggested we take the sound bar from inside outside and this worked a treat!
I was pleasantly surprised at how accommodating they were for a party such as ours, some places are funny about single sex groups / hen parties / stag parties but this didn't seem to be an issue at all - we were just told to have a great time. How refreshing! 15 minute drive into the Lincoln for anyone wanting a day out... and the taxi companies knew exactly where the barns were...easy!
I definitely would not hesitate to stay again, none of the group wanted to leave. Already planning when we can next get a group together and stay again. May have to be a couples trip this time though as my other half was oozing with jealousy!
Thank you Ashlin Farm Barns.
