• "Ginny’s Barn proved an extremely well presented , comfortable holiday home."

  I received a warm welcome from the owner giving me helpful pieces of information which was much appreciated. I absolutely loved my holiday hideaway; on the edge of the village, surrounded by countryside, my ideal! Lots of local walks to keep my black Labrador happy as well as being close to some great places to explore. Thank you Ginny’s Barn!

  Also in a great position on a working but unintrusive farm close to a charming village , situated at a high elevation with some wonderful views close by. Good access to local villages and small towns and tourist attractions. Would highly recommend. Geoff and Vicki Thomas

• "The property was well renovated and equipped but we were unable to sit comfortably on the very well worn sofa."

  Sue brought an extra cushion but by that time we had decided to leave two days early. Would have liked more space to store food as microwave, kettle and toaster took up most of the worktop space. Ginnys Barn is well situated , close to road links to lots of places of interest and views from the property are wonderful.

  Sofa sorted now. Property Owner

• "A beautiful property with lovely views."

  Very peaceful seemingly in the middle of nowhere but only a 2 minute walk from the village. The town of Retford within easy reach. Would certainly book here again in the future.

• "The cottage is lovely and cosy!"

  It is comfortable and very well equipped. It is in a very quiet setting, but within easy reach of Lincoln, Newark and Retford, and also the A1. Sue, the owner, was very welcoming and made lots of suggestions for things to do. We will definitely go back!

• "Really lovely and clean."

  Liked all the personal touches. Very suitable for the dog. Nice location. One of the owners even came to say hallo. It didn’t bother us but we found a key for the ‘annexe’ with a washing machine just as we were leaving. This might have been in the book and I didn’t see it. We had a really lovely stay

• "We loved our stay at Ginnys barn it was very clean and had everything you could need and more for a break away."

  The hosts were very friendly without being intrusive and were very informative about the surrounding areas. We found cycling around the local areas easily as well as in Clumber Park which is a local national trust estate. The views around the local areas were stunning. The bed was very very comfy. Even though this is a working farm we didn’t hear any loud farm vehicles and the area around the barn was very clean.

• "This is a well equipped comfortable barn conversion."

  A beautiful barn out of the way of everyone and everything apart from the natural surroundings. We really enjoyed our time here. The owners are fantastic and made us feel very welcome even supplying local fruit and veg and went beyond and above with a lovely gift of flowers on our anniversary. Sue has great local knowledge of walks of the area. We would highly recommend Ginny's Barn for a lovely stay. The local pub The Duke William is very welcoming with local ales and ciders together with great food especially the Sunday roast. A short 2 mile walk away to East Markham is another lovely village pub called The Queen's Hotel which also serves fantastic food. Both establishments took the cleanliness and restriction surrounding Covid 19 seriously. The overall area of Askham is lovely to walk together with the surrounding areas of East/West Markham and Retford. Lincoln is worth a visit also although we did not hang around too long due to the current situation with Covid 19.

  The cottage has everything you'd need and the WiFi worked correctly which isn't always the case with rental cottages.We'd happily stay there again and found it to be good value for money. If the location suits you it should be great for a couple or single person.

• "W, e were rather disappointed to find the village pub was closed as no where else to eat in the village and had to use car every day as nothing within walking distance if we had known this we would have chosen a different location, weather was really bad so came home tuesday ( no one can predict the english weather) but could not fault the cottage or owners both really nice."

  Mrs J. Oxley ps i think untill pub is open you should let people know of its closure as can cause disapiontment

  Thank you for your feedback, I am sorry the pub was closed at the time, this was in the process of changing owners. The Village pub is open again and has been taken over by a lovely Italian couple, who serve lovely Italian food. I appreciate it was not the greatest weather during your stay and I hope if you do come to visit again, you will get enjoy the pub and have better luck with the weather. Property Owner
