Old-fashioned charm in a beautiful setting
We only spent two days in, "the Barn", but thoroughly enjoyed our short stay. The facilities are first class, the setting totally idyllic and our host very helpful and accommodating. Thank you, Betty!

Great weekend getaway
We know we were staying some beautiful once we drove through the gate. The property was just amazing as well as the house being so warm and cosy. Location was perfect and exploring the grounds with two small children was great. We all enjoyed our time and wished we stayed longer.

Comfortable with lovely views
We thoroughly enjoyed our stay. The Barn was comfortable, cozy and had everything we needed for our short stay including very lovely views. The children loved feeding the chickens and what a treat it was for them to find some eggs to bring home - they were delicious. Betty was very welcoming and responsive. We would definitely recommend the Barn to others and would stay there again. Thank you for our wonderful stay.
