We loved our stay at Broad Oak Barn! The cottage itself is beautiful and is located in a nice, rural area. It is tastefully decorated and very well equipped. Bedrooms are large, spacious and comfortable. On arrival, everything was spotless and super clean and there was a basket in the kitchen with freshly picked fruit and veg from the owners' greenhouse along with a welcome note.. so thoughtful! There was also another basket with bread, scones, jam, tea & coffee and the fridge had butter, milk and a bottle of white wine. We chose this place mainly because we thought it would be ideal since we were taking our dog with us and she also had her own welcome basket with treats, toys, bowls and a towel. The secure garden was perfect for her and we were also allowed to take her off lead to a larger secure field around the cottage once the horses were done grazing for the day, which was great! While you can go for a run outside and there is a route, there are no public footpaths very close to the cottage and the main road outside is very narrow so it isn't ideal for a dog walk, but with the garden and the field, this was not a problem. The owners are very friendly and live just across the cottage and they gave us some great suggestions for nearby walks which are only a few minutes drive away. There are large supermarkets nearby which are easily accessible by car and also some nice pubs. On our last day, we even got some extra fruit and veg to take back with us. A few days after we returned, I received a post from the owners with an item of clothing that we didn't even realise we had left behind.. so kind of them! Overall, we had a great experience at Broad Oak Barn and we will certainly return. :)
