The property was spotless upon arrival and come equipped with everything required, the kitchen was almost over equipped giving no reason to leave the property at all! Ideally located albeit remote it was within 15 mins to bath with other town and villages such as cheddar less than 25mins. It suited those wanting to explore and those who simply wantRead moreed to switch off. A fantastic barn with great hosts, we can't wait to go back! Hide
