Mrs Raines March 2020

“We had a lovely relaxed few days away in this lovely barn conversion.”

Couldn't leave dog free to roam on the patio but worked out fine anyway. He doesn't bother about other animals which were lovely to see. Would be nice if there was a long mirror but no other thoughts. Thank you so much.

Emma, the owner, was very friendly & helpful. Plenty of room for us & our greyhound. We will certainly visit again. Thank you for a wonderful stay.
Mr Bauldry October 2019

“A beautiful little cottage and so quiet and welcoming too.”

Beautiful little area to sit outside in nice weather with views over well kept grounds and trees and occasionally horses, squirrels and birds too. We were left a few supplies to welcome us including a cake, which was a lovely surprise and delicious too! The owners were around if needed and both spoke to us and were very friendly and kind The village of Glinton is a delight - so pretty and well kept - and the pub only a minutes walk away is wonderful serving great food The village shop was also very well stocked and welcoming and only 5 minutes trot away if that Loads of lovely places to visit all around and good road links too All in all a lovely, if short stay, which we thoroughly enjoyed and felt very much at home - we were really sorry to have to leave!

“The owner of the property is so kind and helpful.”

We had a lovely bottle of bubbly and packet of shortbread waiting. This was our second visit to the barn. Highly recommended by us and our two dogs.
Mr Phillips March 2019

“Very peaceful and relaxing place, would certainly visit again.”

Owners very friendly welcome. The Pub is dog friendly, with good food.
Mrs Thomas March 2019

“Lovely,peaceful cottage and our hosts were most helpful.”

It was lovely to see all the animals roaming free and we especially enjoyed the company of the black cat , Moby! There were plenty of places to visit although Spalding,which featured in a visitors ‘ guide, was rather disappointing. However, this was more than made up for by visits to places like Burghley . We would certainly recommend The Barn to any visitor thinking of exploring the area.
Mrs Barron-ladd February 2019

“Set in a quiet pictaresque village location.”

The Barn was very clean and comfortable and Emma the owner was welcoming. It was an ideal base for us to visit locations around Peterborough. Ideal for our dog with the wooden flooring and easy access to outside. The kitchen has everything you need. We hope to return later this year. Thanks ! Lyn & Ian

“A beautiful property, tastefully restored.”

This property was presented to a high standard, it was beautifully furnished and the layout was ideal for us. Despite the inclement weather there was plenty to do in the locality and the friendly owners were on hand if required and supplied some useful ideas for day trips. A pet friendly property with walks from the door and room for the dog to run in the adjacent paddock. We wouldn't hesitate to book again or recommend this property, it was great!
