We had a great girls weekend away at The Rusty Barn. The house is beautiful and really well equipped. The hot tub and sauna were an added bonus. Beds were comfy and as a group of 9 we had lots of space. Would also highly recommend the private chef company that were recommended to us by the owners of the barn.

What a fabulous place for a family get- together. We had a pre Christmas celebration with 9 adults, two young children and three dogs. Very safe with a lockable gate to stop the dogs and toddler escaping. We made good use of the hot tub and sauna and cooked in each night. Good space for us all in such a beautiful area too.

The Rusty Barn gave us a wonderful renunion family holiday. Adults and children loved it (3,5 and 11 year olds). The football table and Hot tub were a great hit. The table tennis table was usable but the equipment needs updating. The kitchen was spacious and well equipped for 9 - 10. There is ample space both in the living accommodation and within Read morethe plot for everyone including the dog (secure fencing and grass area).

What a wonderful quirky place to stay. The lights in their various forms are amazing especially the chassis hanging in the outside area ! Bedrooms are a good size and well equipped.
