Beautiful Accommodation
We loved our stay at the Thatched Barn.
The barn was spacious, clean and comfortable.
The outside space was private and well equipped.
The owners were on hand to offer great advice on places to visit and eat at.
We would love to return at some point in the future.

Simply the best!
Everything about this holiday home is beautiful! The location and views are stunning, the atmospheric barn has been beautifully restored at no expense and the result is the perfect place for a romantic stay. Also, a wonderful welcome pack had been left for us by our lovely host Claire which was much appreciated. I can't wait to go back! Thank you so much!

Short stay in perfect Barn
Absolutely Stunning stay... Don't think about it, just book it. Perfect rural retreat. The Barn is beautiful and lovely touches throughout made for a home away from home experience. Lovely walks nearby too, which elevated the whole stay. Perfect to get away from it all location. Will be staying here soon.

Beautiful property
Wow, what a stay! The barn is beautiful throughout and so well equipped, the owners have clearly put a lot of thought into what to provide their guests. The welcome basket of essentials was a such a lovely touch and really set the tone for a great stay. The area is quiet and peaceful but only a short distance to a couple of really lovely country pubs. Would love to stay again!

We loved our stay at The Thatched Barn.
The weather wasn't great and we were on a babymoon, so lots of time spent indoors here, but it felt spacious and equally cosy. Really well equipped which is important for me and makes the stay a lot better! Bed and sofas comfortable, and lovely dining area. Quite a few spiders around the place, but probably to be expected in a barn conversion!

Absolutely fabulous!
The Thatched Barn is absolutely fabulous. As you walk through the door you are greeted with the Wow factor, the Barn has everything you need, it’s very spacious, it’s in a very quiet location and great for touring the local countryside and beaches. The owners, James and Claire are so friendly and made us feel very welcome. We would definitely recommend.

Outstanding Property
A remarkable conversion of a thatched barn into a one bed two bathroom property, to a level well above our expectation. Everything is to a very high spec and to provide comfort, an ambiance for a very enjoyable stay. Appreciated the hamper after what was a long journey and so pleased that it is fully equipped with every thing required.
Hope we have an opportunity to stay here again, we would struggle to find better.
