Reviews of The Barn
"My family and I stayed here for a week to celebrate my 60th birthday. There were 6 children and 6 adults and we had plenty of room. The pictures dont really show how spacious it is. The children loved the big downstairs bedroom which had bunk beds and 2 singles in. The master bedroom is amazing huge bed very comfy. The living room has reclining arm chairs and the whole barn is very comfortable, child friendly and home from home. There is a lovely outside space with ponds ducks and fishing if you have the weather. Jane was on hand to see if we needed anything. Highly recommend and very reasonable. We would definitely return as a family."

"First of its huge. We were two families one of 8 the other of 4 and the Barn was massive. We were able to give the kids theIR own bedrooms upstairs and Lounge come bedroom downstairs that has a TV etc in it, as well as having our own adult lounge. The kitchen was well laid out roomy and well stocked even had an Aga cooker! The dinner seating was good with the kids siting at the 8 seater table in the kitchen and the adults eating at the dinning table in the adult area!! I have never been in a property with so many toilets, showers etc so there were no problems there either. Having a large family this ticked all the boxes and the children loved here. There is also a huge lawn area outside for the kids to play on. We were also surprised how much there was to do in the wider area of Shropshire with Liverpool to the north, wales to the west and Stafford shire and Drayton Manor kids theme park to the East. Plenty of city sites to see as well as walking and historic sites in Shropshire. We will have to come back again and again to do everything! Jane and Andrew were very helpful and chatty and welcoming. Its a great place really loved it and would have stayed longer if the option was there. Idea for large families or groups. Would defo recommend!!"

"A very lovely, well equipped Barn with plenty of room for everyone, lots of space for all ages to enjoy. The kitchen had everything you needed with plenty of crockery/cutlery for the numbers it said it could cater for. It was a pleasure to stay there. "

"We had a brilliant time, The Barn is so beautiful and the owner was so nice and helpful. There was so much room and we said we would definitely stay here again. You could walk straight from the doorstep onto rolling fields and amazing walks with ducks and wild life. We would give this place a Ten out of Ten thank you for having us. "
