Absolutely loved our stay!

3 adults and a springer spaniel - all thoroughly enjoyed our stay. The swimming pool was wonderful (the reason we booked it). Location superb - beautiful countryside and wonderful little pub in Dorstone. Host was very friendly and helpful. Beds and bedding were incredibly comfy, best night's sleep for a long time. Would highly recommend - thank you!

A Beautiful Barn, Wonderful Hosts & the Perfect Escape

We had the most wonderful stay at this beautiful barn. It’s full of character and quirky little design details and the peaceful setting surrounded by nature, made it the perfect place to completely switch off and relax. Spending time with Buster and Gigi was an added bonus too! Sal and Ed were absolutely fantastic hosts and made us feel welcome from the moment we arrived. There were many thoughtful touches, that made the experience feel special. We wouldn’t hesitate to recommend staying here and would absolutely love to return. Thank you, Sal and Ed, for such a wonderful stay!

Relaxing retreat

It was a beautiful relaxing property and there was everything you needed for a perfect stay. Very unusual and extremely well presented comfortable and clean. Only criticism would be the cushions needed replacing. But definitely 5* very Happy

Detached barn with Private pool

We wanted cosy accommodation dog friendly with a private pool. It ticked all the boxes for us with two 10 year old girls and our little sausages dogs. Really thoughtful touches and designed to beautiful standard.

Lovely place to stay

We had a lovely time, staying at Outshot Barn. Making sure we had enough towels to making the second room, a king bed too, it was an excellent base for visiting Hay-on-Wye and if you’re in the mood, for a Sunday Roast, the Pandy Inn just down the road is fantastic. The swimming pool is a touch cold which is to be expected but soon warms up once you’re in.

Wonderful stay in rural Herefordshire

As a family with two young children, the property was wonderful for us and just what we needed. The pool was a particular highlight and the kids spent every afternoon in it. The house is compact but really well appointed and clean, with a well equipped kitchen and comfortable seating. The area is quiet, with lovely walking straight from the front door and Hay-on-Wye a short drive away. It's a wonderful place for a relaxing holiday.

Gorgeous barn, location and added bonus of the pool

The barn is absolutely beautiful, comfy and very easy to live in! We also made great use of the pool given the hot weather. The location is stunning, very relaxing, lovely sunsets and an abundance of bees, butterflies etc due to the beautiful gardens. Was lovely seeing and hearing the cows, hens, sheep and ponies as you relax in the garden and barn. Sally was really helpful both before arrival and when there, and although it’s a working farm it still felt like you had plenty of privacy and quiet, chilled time! Would highly recommend this beautiful accommodation.

A perfect place to spend a week away as a family.

We had a fantastic stay and would highly recommend it. The barn is beautifully presented, comfortable, and finished to a very high standard. The swimming pool was a real highlight, our daughter loved spending time in it every day. The location is beautiful, set on a peaceful working farm surrounded by animals and stunning countryside. We were delighted to see a recently born calf during our stay, which was a lovely experience. The peace and quiet made it the perfect family escape, while still offering all the modern comforts and facilities we needed, including excellent Wi-Fi. In truth, we rarely turned a screen on. Sally was a wonderful host, friendly, welcoming and helpful throughout our stay. She was especially encouraging with our daughter, taking the time to invite us to see the animals and helping create opportunities for her to interact with them. It was a lovely personal touch and added greatly to the overall experience. We'd particularly recommend a visit to Hay-on-Wye, yes it is full of books, and the Small Breeds Farm, which was excellent for young children, with lots of opportunities to interact with the animals. Overall, a relaxing and memorable family holiday in a beautiful setting, and somewhere we would happily return to.

Truly dog friendly accommodation

We have stayed in many dog friendly places, which aren’t always as dog friendly as advertised. This was a truly dog friendly experience. The accommodation is cosy, comfortable and well equipped. In true British summertime fashion we experienced the fabulous pool one day and a log fire the next! The hosts were very friendly and we loved the visits from their dogs. Would recommend the Pandi Inn for drinks and dinner, we had a great holiday.

A relaxing stay

We had a lovely stay at Outshot Barn. A beautifully furnished and equipped barn set in a peaceful location. Hosts Sally and Ed and family were very friendly and helpful and on hand if we had any queries. We really enjoyed meeting the horses and pigs and seeing the chickens and turkeys. Buster the dog was a firm favourite by the end of our stay! Nice to be able to have a dip in the pool on the warm days. Lovely meal at the local Pandy Inn and a short drive away the local store and Hay-on-Wye. Plenty of local shops and selection of nice pubs and restaurants.

Heaven on earth

We stayed at Outshot barn for a long weekend with two small children. We craved an escape from the city and a trip to the countryside, and we couldn't have been more thrilled to have discovered Outshot barn. It's incredibly comfortable and extremely well decorated and kitted out. It's located close enough to Hay-on-Wye and the Black Mountains for adventures, but is tucked away in its own quiet valley with an amazing outlook and a soundtrack of only birdsong and bleating sheep. The hosts are incredibly helpful and friendly, and went above and beyond to make sure our animal-mad children (and us) had the most amazing time, including visits to the pigs and piglets. I wish we were still there.

A remarkable bolthole ...

What can I say , this barn conversion has been carried out to an incredible standard ... Surrounded by beautiful countryside , Ed and Sally couldn`t be more friendly and welcoming . Outshot Barn is minutes away from the lovely village of Dorstone , with it`s historic pub , The Pandy Inn ( highly recommended ) , as well as various historical sites of interest . The main house is home to the most considerate cockerel in the UK ( doesn`t get up til gone 8 ) as well as cats ( expect Jack the ginger tom to pay a visit ) , as well as Buster and Gigi ( the family dogs ) who are incredibly friendly and not shy of paying a visit too , which we loved . All in all I cannot recommend Outshot Barn highly enough , and we will definitely return ...

Fantastic!

We have just come back from a wonderful 3 days away at Outshot Barn and from the minute we arrived we knew we would be looking to rebook. The accommodation is gorgeous and comfortable, the rustic decor is fabulous and Sally and Ed are great hosts! The kids loved going out to feed the farm animals with Ed and were rewarded with fresh free range eggs which were amazing. The weather wasn’t great but it didn’t stop us from using the pool and welcoming the much needed downtime. I enjoyed looking at the views and listening to the rain next to the wood burning stove with my book and we were lucky enough to have a clear night to see a sky full of stars one night without the light pollution of the cities. The facilities were great and we largely self-catered with cosy nights in but we used the barn as a base for exploring the Brecon Beacons, the Forest of Dean and Hereford. We can’t wait to rebook to go back next year and explore more!

Serene, picturesque and chic

Outshot Barn is tasteful, spacious accommodation in a beautiful and quiet area. It is very relaxing to watch the unobtrusive farm life going on. Sally, the owner made us feel welcome and invited us to come along to meet the horses if we wanted to. You can walk or go for a run in the quiet lanes - only occasionally meeting friendly people. Inside the barn, the open-plan kitchen and lounge area is very comfortable - a huge stack door is great to open on a nice day and when it gets chilly, it still offers a view of the beautiful surroundings. The kitchen is well-equipped and tastefully decorated. The rooms are quite spacious and the fact that both rooms have en-suite bathrooms is very convenient. The pool was amazing and at 28 degrees, comfortable to use even on cooler days. Sally was really helpful with advice and suggestions about routes and activities in the area. Her warmth and kindness complemented the really serene atmosphere on the farm.
